    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.

    Wow.. thats unusual. :)

    13 episode series, finished in October in the States. Sounds good. Grace Park from BSG is in it too.... I'll set the sky+ (God knows I'll be fast asleep when it actually airs....)

    Watched it after Eli Stone last night.

    Tries to Play like a cross between "Highway to heaven" and "Mean Streets", and while not looking like it is shaping up to be compulsive viewing, it was oddly interesting.

    Not great, but not bad, the underrated Gil Bellows made a decent cameo in last nights show, and as for Benjamin Bratt, well, he didnt annoy me hugely, but he defo just held up a photo of Chris Cornell circa "Spoonman" to the art dept. and said "make me look like this".

    No other "stars" as such, but the Big guy from Knights of prosperity looks set to be a regular.

    Forgot to mention -

    The high point of the episode was Grace Park reclining on the bonnet of a Lamborghini accompanied by this track

    A&E has canceled The Cleaner, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
    The network has opted to not renew the rehab drama starring Benjamin Bratt.
    The show's second — and now final — season concluded earlier this month.

    Its a shame it was quite enjoyable
