Airdate: King and Maxwell

Next week SoHo premieres King and Maxwell, a US Drama series starring Jon Tenney and Rebecca Romijn as former Secret Service agents solving crimes as private detectives.

The series was created by Aussie Shane Brennan (NCIS, NCIS: LA) but did not survive beyond ten episodes.

Sean King and Michelle Maxwell aren’t your typical private investigators. Both are former Secret Service agents, and their unique skills – not to mention their undeniable chemistry – give them a leg up on conventional law enforcement. Maxwell is a former Olympic athlete who uses her brains, beauty and Beltway connections to solve cases. King’s career in the Secret Service ended when the presidential candidate he was assigned to protect was assassinated, sending him on a downward spiral. Trying to put his life back together, King has added a law degree to his arsenal of skills, allowing him to navigate the system in ways a typical private investigator never could. Along the way, King and Maxwell clash over everything, from her garbage-strewn car to his preference for wine over beer.

Tuesdays from April 8 at 7.30pm on SoHo.
