Doing a re watch of the series for the first time and damn does it hold up. I honestly think it was a few years ahead of its time.

FX did a horrible job of advertising that series. I loved it.

Great show. It does hold up well and is easy to watch. The advertising plan was bad but the show should not have been called "Terriers". I think that caused confusion among potential viewers.

Terrible name, but honestly, it got the same kind of ratings that got other shows on FX renewed at the time. FX completely threw that show under the bus, which is tragic.

Terriers is the best one-season show ever. Yes, even better than Freaks and Geeks or Firefly. Terriers was terrific.

The name wasn't great, but the promotional campaign was one of the worst ever.

I saw dozens of ads for it while watching other shows on FX, and none of them convinced me to watch the show.

I watched it later and loved it and have recommended it to many people.

I was a fan during season one and couldn't believe it got cancelled. I don't watch too many series. Thought I had found one to watch for a few years.

Completely agree. If a piece of shite like Tyrant and The Riches could get a second season. Surely they could have bit the bullet for Terriers.

Terriers was good but weird.
As was The Bridge.
Loved both of them, but certainly not shows for mainstream tastes.
