who watches the tv show of the same name?
The guy who does the Allstate Commercials with the name 'Mayhem', stuntman or not.... Dean Winters is a costar along with Josh Duhamel. I've watched it a couple of times, but not sure it will last the year or a second year.
Leans towards funnier situations than the aborted Detroit 1-8-7 crime drama from late 2010 to early 2011.

Maybe I'll watch it tonight; comes on in an hour; looks like the second or third episode.

Dean Winters has been in lots of stuff, including 30 Rock and Rescue Me.
 
You forgot Oz.

That's probably his biggest role.

I don't remember him from Oz.

I remember J.K. Simmons and Chris Maloney and Rita Moreno and Edie Falco on Oz.

Was Winters the guy who had some kind of sexual involvement with Maloney's character?

I remember that character, but I don't remember him as being Winters.

EDIT:

Chris Meloni...

Obviously, I remember the other characters, I just don't remember the actors who played them by name.

I just looked it up; right, Ernie Hudson was the warden, or something, I had forgotten about that...

McManus was a major character but I wouldn't have known that actor's name off the top of my head, and I don't recall seeing him in anything else.

The narrator sort of guy - the guy in the wheel chair - I think he played God in this comedy where Elizabeth Hurley was the devil, and Brendan Fraser was this guy who sold his soul...

my uncle is from Battle Creek. been there a few times.

it's amazing how there's not much there besides Kellogg's, and how run down the old part of town is. although they do have a pretty decent brewpub there now (Arcadia)

turns out there was never much of a battle there... sounds like it was more a drunken brawl between a couple surveyors and the local native american tribe.
 
Both Chris Meloni and J.K. Simmons played really sick mother fuckers in Oz. Did the J.K. Simmons character have Dean Winters's caracter's son killed on the outside or something?

My wife and I have watched. Its not bad but your right that it probably won't get a season 2.
I loved Detroit 1-8-7 and was sad to see it fail. That show was actually filmed in Detroit and the local suburbs with plenty of outdoor scenes that we could "relate" to. I think it was the last and maybe only TV show filmed in the Detroit area.
