Such an amazing show.

I just had a Facebook conversation with a couple of friends and one of them said he watched the first five eps and it didn't grab him. The other was a girl who wanted to watch but now won't until she's able to catch up. Yeah, that'll happen after it's cancelled. :(

This is not a friend.
 
Great episode, as always. Michael Gaston is just so damned intimidating. Was the bluff Hank referred to just that the disc didn't have what he said it did, or did they not record the surveillance at all?

I would think that those guys would've recorded it, but I guess they didn't based on Hank's line. It might have tied off the Zeitlin plot line way too easily if they could just use the tape to nail him.
 
Yea, seemed like a pretty obvious bluff when he offered to give Zeitlin a copy. The operation was put together to quick to allow for recording, in my suspension for disbelief mind.
 
Not recording it (I'm presuming, since there's more than enough there to take to the FBI), and having the guy intimidate her out of mic range was a little too convenient, but otherwise, great episode.

I knew the Britt/Katie thing was eventually going to go down, and it was as rough as I was fearing. Loved the final two lines of the night as well.
 
wow. wow.
really have no idea where the episode was going. I thought it will just be Hank crashing the wedding.

Griffin knows how to make an intense situation.

Brit and Katey break out was really well done.

yeah getting the Blu-ray so I better get my season 02
 
damn that was incredible. The people in this show are way too clever though. I know it's fiction, but I wish I could be that quick on my feet like they are.
 
Yet another outstanding episode!

I can't believe how perfect this show is. Everything about it is flawless. The episode was full of tension right from the start and I was kept on the edge of my seat all the way through.

I agree with Scarecrow. It's a very clever show.

If this is not renewed I will not be happy.
 
I like how Hank finds another maiden to save to replace Gretchen. Putting her into the wedding limo was a nice if weird emotional replacement.
 
best one-season show ever?
seriously, the two main leads are so good and the writing is fantastic.
my only gripe is that I'm not a huge fan of the actress who plays Katey.

I don't know if I'd put it above Freaks and Geeks, but I'm going to be really sad when this is canceled. :( Right now I'm hoping they tie up the storylines just as well as they've been playing them out.
 
Fantastic episode! What a way to bring us back to the whole Lindus saga. And Michael Raymond-James really delivered on the emotional impact, I felt pretty darn sad for Britt :(

Its not my best (if it is one and done), but its up there. I have firefly as my #1, but Terriers is right there with Freaks & Geeks
 
Take this for what you will:

Shawn Ryan ShawnRyanTV

Yes and yes. RT @shapella: any chance Terriers gets second season with the sad ratings? Does FX take into account the other weekly showings?
 
That's about the most optimistic I've heard Ryan about its chances yet, so that's good. Still, all he's really saying is it's not impossible.
 
Louie got renewed and it's ratings were shit, but then again Louie probably costs half of what Terriers does. Still, FX will keep a series on the air if they think it's quality.

Louie cost way less than half of what Terriers does. Louie was like $350,000 an ep, which is chump change even for a cable show.

I hope Terriers comes back, but with the ratings it's getting I would be really surprised. FX doesn't have to settle for shows in the 0.2/0.3 demo range.
 
Show had a spectacular outing on Wednesday. So many boss lines. Paraphrasing:
"I need a drink more than ever." "I don't."
The writing in this is so goddamn good it can't even be put into words.

The new "reporter" character is cool. Hope she shows up again.

Sent a gratuitously long one just now. It will probably not be read for it is so wordy and slightly insane, but it can't hurt.
 
Yeah, I never send stuff like that in. But I did for this show. A 1, maybe 1 and a half paragraph e-mail saying that Terriers is the kind of show that makes me watch cable networks.
 
I sent off an email to FX this morning, too.

Kurt Sutter backing up Terriers:
FX, please pick up TERRIERS. change the name--make it part of S2 reboot campaign. and in those ads, please SHOW us what the show is about.

Just want to concur that this show is fantastic, been watching from the start and it's great stuff, my favorite new show this year. The acting and writing are top notch, love all the characters. It really needs to come back, but even if not, at least we got one great season.
