The Cleaner - New Series on A&E

Did anyone catch this last night?


The Cleaner

TUESDAYS 10/9C
"The Cleaner," inspired by the true story of a real-life "extreme interventionist," stars Benjamin Bratt as William "The Cleaner" Banks, who, after hitting rock-bottom from his own addictions after the birth of his daughter, strikes a tentative deal with God. Now along with his unconventional team, he helps people get away from their addictions by any means necessary.
I set it to record on my DVR last night and ended up watching it live because of another show recording at the same time. After the episode was over, I marked it for a season pass. It was an interesting show and one that really drew me into the story and characters.

The premise of the show is stated above. The Cleaner has a team that works with him to rescue people from their addictions and get them on the road to recovery and a better life.

If you missed it, it looks like you can watch the pilot on the A&E website. Go to the link above, click on Video and then Full Episodes.

So, this show isn't about a guy who cleans up messy mob hits that go awry?

Yeah I also DVR'd it as well. I'm going out of town the next 2 days, so I'm in no rush to watch it. Bratt is a good actor and I like Grace Park as well.

No, though that could make for a good show as well.
