TERRIERS FX PRESS RELEASE: Terriers from Creator/Executive Producer Ted Griffin (Ocean’s Eleven, Matchstick Men) and Executive Producer Shawn Ryan (The Shield), is a comedic drama starring Donal Logue (The Tao of Steve) and Michael Raymond-James (True Blood). It centers on “Hank Dolworth” (Logue), an ex-cop, who partners with his best friend “Britt Pollack” (Raymond-James) in an unlicensed private investigation business. Comedic, edgy, original, a show about high stakes in the face of low expectations, Terriers explores what it’s like in today's America to be “too small to fail.” Co-stars include Laura Allen (Dirt) as “Katie,” Britt’s girlfriend; Rockmond Dunbar (Prison Break) as “Detective Mark Gustafson,” former colleague of Hank; and Jamie Denbo (Weeds) as “Maggie Lefferts,” Hank’s attorney. Craig Brewer (Hustle and Flow, The Shield) directed the pilot episode. Terriers is produced by Fox 21.
TERRIERS “CHANGE PARTNERS” Third Episode Review, Airing 9/22/2010
In TERRIERS this week Hank and Brit investigate a cheating spouse and get tangled in an interesting web. Our lovable Hank (Donal Logue) is always checking up on his ex-wife, Gretchen (Kimberly Quinn) and Britt (Michael Raymond-James) becomes an unwitting accomplice. “Change Partners” is written by Phoef Sutton and directed by Guy Ferland. Hank is still working on a way to pay for his house and that leads him into the office of their next client. The bank’s manager wants Hank and Britt to get proof of his spouse’s (Olivia Williams) cheating. Let us just say that things get a little weird, ok a lot weird but who’s keeping track?
It’s nice to know that Britt has some rules about what he can and can’t have on the job but it is unfortunate that he happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Britt is reunited with a pal from his past and it gets way too personal. Katie (Laura Allen) finds out some really unsettling information and she isn’t sure how to take it.
Hank is still experiencing what he believes to be senior moments but he isn’t old enough for that! Hank spends the day following his mark and it doesn’t end so kindly for him. You know it is never a good sign when Norman Bates is involved. Hank channels his inner photographer with the help of Britt and Katie and Christmas cards are made. Hanks’ actions end up leading to a thank you note being written.
TERRIERS proves itself every week to be one of the best hours that you will spend sitting down and this week’s episode is no exception. Don’t miss all new episodes of TERRIERS on Wednesday nights at 10 PM EST only on FX!
