They disagree on almost every issue -- personal and otherwise -- but one thing they see eye to eye on is doing whatever it takes to nail the bad guys. Former Secret Service agents Sean King and Michelle Maxwell used to protect politicians, but now they combine their unique skills -- not to mention razor-sharp chemistry -- to investigate criminals in and around Washington, D.C. Maxwell, a former elite athlete, uses her brains, beauty and Beltway connections to get a leg up on suspects and conventional law enforcement, and with a new law degree added to his resume, King is able to navigate the system in ways other private eyes only dream of. Author David Baldacci developed the King and Maxwell characters in a series of best-selling books.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Jon Tenney and Rebecca Romijn are delightful, but King & Maxwell relies too much on the buddy cop show formula.

Basically, then, what King & Maxwell has going for it is King and Maxwell. Did I mention that Tenney and Romijn are charming? Go to Full Review

C-
King & Maxwell is a cop show where everything has been thrown into a blender and -- after a few minutes on high -- is ready to be poured down the throat of the viewer. Go to Full Review
Tom Conroy Media Life 06/10/2013
[The show] gets the amount of chemistry just about right. But too much else is off. The dialogue is obvious, and the plot is absurd. Go to Full Review

What saves King & Maxwell from being a forgettable take on an all-too-familiar formula is the casting. Go to Full Review
