Terriers

Terriers is a neo-noir television series that aired on FX in 2010, focusing on an unlicensed private investigator operating in San Diego. Created by Ted Griffin, the show follows two down-on-their-luck friends who take on small, gritty detective cases. It blends dark humor with compelling, character-driven mysteries.

The series stars Donal Logue in the lead role as Hank Dolworth, a former cop turned unlicensed private investigator. He is joined by Michael Raymond-James, who plays his best friend and investigative partner, Britt Pollack. Their undeniable on-screen chemistry is often cited as the heart of the show.

Unfortunately, FX cancelled Terriers after just one season consisting of 13 episodes, despite its widespread critical acclaim. The show struggled to find a large audience during its initial broadcast. Because it was cancelled so early, the single season tells a largely self-contained story.

Despite widespread critical acclaim, FX cancelled Terriers after one season primarily due to low viewership ratings. The show struggled with marketing and failed to capture a mainstream audience in 2010. However, it has since maintained a highly dedicated cult following.
