Don't listen to the negative reviews

Absolutely Fantastic

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

After 4 episodes of this show I couldn't believe it got canceled. After 10 episodes I was getting the idea why it was canceled. By the final episode, I had to force myself to watch it. What started out as a fun show about two shabby private detectives trying to make a buck (a show I would watch - a bit NCIS-ish), with a good back story and very likable actors, quickly evolved into a sloppily written and poorly executed moralizing Eco-warrior yawn of a show. For me, what defines a good show is when all the bases are covered and every angle explained. You can't watch a show where the leads keep doing stupid things over and over again, when there are viable and much better alternatives present and obvious. You can't watch a show where the actors keep spewing clichés with very little conviction. Admittedly, the two male leads are actually the best part of the series and deserve a better show and the two female leads are not too shabby either. What betrays them is the writing, over and over again. This is a show that would have gone over well in the 80s and early 90s, but today, with so many awesome, complex and morally ambiguous shows available, not so much. I vote for a redo, with better writers and a much narrower focus.

I kind of feel bad rating this a 7. The story line was solid and the casting was great. I think the dialog was saved by the cast. I don't know why it got canceled because it certainly deserved to have its plot lines finished. I may just be jaded when it comes to cop/drama shows because of The Wire and Luther, but I think it's a hard sell to have to tone down what that world can look like for network TV. At the end of the day, I enjoyed watching the show, but it never called to me with that itch that just needs to know how it ends. Even knowing it's not coming back I'm left basically shrugging my shoulders happy to imagine how the plots might resolve.I think that's the problem, I feel like I could write it.

Finished the series tonight and now there's a hole in my heart. I'll give it a little bit to sink in but right now I have no problem saying that it's my favorite series of all time. These two guys just…mean so much to me. They hit me in the heart and I just wanted them to succeed so badly. I love them from the bottom of my heart, that kind of love that you rarely ever get with fictional characters. The series gave me absolutely everything and more. It had me laughing in stitches, weeping in a river of tears, sitting on the edge of my seat in suspense and just relaxing with the warmest feeling in my heart.For me Terriers was one of those things that comes along so rarely, one of those things that buries deep into your soul and sticks with you for good. In a way I'm glad that it didn't continue, because it really is perfect the way that it is. I'll always be desiring for so much more, but maybe it's better to have this perfection than the risk of it being tarnished. The finale closed up the important story lines and didn't leave us hanging, but still left us with some ambiguity and some hope. In classic Terriers fashion, we got a victory, but it was ultimately just a small one in a much bigger war.

when i read that terriers was cancelled it reminds me why i don't watch a lot of TV, they are idiots this show was great i give it an absolute 10. instead of cancelling why didn't they try another timeslot.Donal Logue was tremendous in the role he played as an ex cop trying to find his way after a divorce and dealing with an alcohol problem i thought FX to be more liberal but they are proving to be yet another moneygrubbing network who could give a rats @ss about art. i just don't get it if they keep this up they will end up like UPN cancelling Star Trek Enterprise. It is just upsetting to discover that when you think there is a light at the end of the TV tunnel it gets extinguished once again by the powers that control the light. Wht next are you going to cancel Justified or Sons of Anarchy
