The series follows two down and
out private detectives Hank Dolworth and Britt Pollack who stumble onto
something a little too big and a little too deep when one of their friends ends
up dead.
The show’s creator is Ted Griffin. He also
wrote the films Ocean’s Eleven
and Matchstick Men, making
the material a good fit. While it was his first television project, Shawn Ryan (The
Shield) and Tim Minear (Angel)
also served as executive producers with Griffin, fostering a strong creative
team.
The show stars Donal Logue and Michael Raymond-James, and
features Laura Allen, Kimberly Quinn, and Rockmond Dunbar in support.
Like many other projects that
Shawn Ryan is involved in, Terriers was great but short-lived. FX typically
does well with its great gritty dramas, but it could not find an audience for
this overlooked gem. It is well worth checking out for fans of crime dramas
that have a gritty, but fun feel. The show mostly works episodically, but there
is a main narrative that hangs over the full season and ties everything
together. The series also has a satisfying ending, despite being cancelled.
