It's only the first season finale of "King & Maxwell," but could it already be the end of their pairing? The Secret Service wanted Michelle Maxwell back, and they were willing to offer her her dream job in order to get her. But after spending this much time working alongside Sean King, would she take them up on it?
It turns out, he was able to offer her something even more valuable,and so she turned down the job. This left King stunned. "Michelle, that’s the career you worked for," he told her.
“You said I was the only person you could trust," Maxwell said, as an explanation of sorts. When King asked her if that fact meant more to her than the Secret Service, she responded, "That means more to me than anything.”

Fans of Jon Tenney’s work on The Closer (and his roles that came before that) let out a collective huzzah when the actor landed the male lead in TNT’s King & Maxwell, NCIS vet Shane Brennan’s adaptation of the David Baldacci novels (airing Mondays at 10/9c). And make no mistake, Tenney is jazzed, too. Here, he opens up about fronting a series, sings leading lady Rebecca Romijn’s praises, teases big reveals about Sean’s complicated past and, yes, hints at Fritz Howard’s return to Major Crimes.

"King & Maxwell" is the latest in TNT's ampersand crime dramedies, this one starring Jon Tenney as Sean King and Rebecca Romijn as Michelle Maxwell, both former Secret Service who are now a duo of private investigators.
If you haven't read the books, we're curious what you thought about the new series. Tenney and Romijn have a cute chemistry, for sure. But as fans of the book series, we wish the show had started at a different point in time.
In the book series, King and Maxwell meet each other when her missing presidential candidate turns out to be tied to King's assassinated presidential candidate from eight years earlier. It's a terrific mystery and there is a development of the characters before they are joined up working as investigators.
We wish the show had gone that way -- it would've been fun to watch the "Split Second" events play out over the course of a season,...

Clearly, TNT loves Jon Tenney.
And the feeling is mutual, since the actor has worked for the cable network for the better part of the past decade. After his long run as FBI Special Agent Fritz Howard -- longtime friend and eventual husband of Kyra Sedgwick's Brenda Leigh Johnson on "The Closer," a role he's occasionally reprised on the spinoff "Major Crimes" -- Tenney launches a new TNT crime drama as "King & Maxwell" premieres Monday (June 10).
He and Rebecca Romijn play Sean King and Michelle Maxwell, former Secret Service agents now partnered as private detectives. The characters originated in best sellers by David Baldacci ("Absolute Power"), and they're odd-couple opposites: He's more refined while she's the street-wise one.
Michael O'Keefe ("Caddyshack") and Chris Butler co-star as FBI operatives in the show that includes Shane Brennan ("NCIS," "NCIS: Los Angeles") among its executive producers.

TNT‘s latest crime drama, King & Maxwell, has a somewhat familiar feel to it, but surpasses many of the network’s less interesting, but popular efforts. In the end, it looks as though that might not be a good thing.
Much like USA, it isn’t difficult to know that you’re watching something on TNT. Whether it’s The Closer, Leverage, Perception, or Falling Skies, the network has a certain feel to it. Of course, there are two camps to these shows, despite the similarity of style and substance, and the real question for any show is which side we’re leaning toward.
One camp begins and ends with The Closer. It’s a show I didn’t watch beyond the first season, largely because it flew out over left field and beyond so fast that I couldn’t even comprehend the interest, much less actually manage any. Good or bad,...

TNT is adding to its original-series lineup with a show about a pair of private investigators starring Rebecca Romijn and "The Closer's" Jon Tenney.
The untitled show is based on a series of novels by David Baldacci about Sean King (Tenney) and Michelle Maxwell (Romijn), former Secret Service agents who now work together as private eyes. The show was known as "King and Maxwell" in its pilot stage, but that's apparently out of the running now.
Ryan Hurst ("Sons of Anarchy"), Michael O'Keefe and Chris Butler also star in the series, which comes from "NCIS: Los Angeles" creator Shane Brennan. He's executive producing with Grant Anderson.

TNT has ordered to series a drama about a private investigator team. Rebecca Romjin and Jon Tenney will headline an untitled private eye show that was previously dubbed King and Maxwell, from NCIS: La executive producer Shane Brennan. Romjin will play Michelle Maxwell, a former secret services agent who investigates politically sensitive cases along with her partner, Sean King (The Closer’s Tenney).
The pickup, which was first reported by Deadline, should be especially good news to fans of Ryan Hurst, who’s character Opie was killed off last season on Sons of Anarchy. Hurst co-stars in the project as a high-functioning autistic savant.
