One of the best films i have seen

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This is the type of series you can binge over and over. It has everything all the ingredients to make a perfect blend of a TV show. A drama at times. Comedy, detective work, lost romance, and bromamce. It's created by Shawn Ryan which alone should make you invested and go watch it but why fx let it go only one season is beyond me. It's a injustice and I can only assume it was due to terrible marketing because this show is REALLY that amazing. I must admit I didn't even hear about it until it appeared on my netflix one day. If there was a show that can be DNR it would be this gem. It's a simple enough story. A detective gets kicked off the force who has a drinking habit but that's where the clichés end. While on the force he let's a burglar go and in the future opens a P.I business with him. At first I thought it would be a procedural but I was wrong and by the end I realized how far back to the first episode they connected everything. It's a serialized buddy detective show and along the way we have so much fun witnessing the adventures and sometimes or most of the time trouble one or both of them get into. This show is highly recommended if your looking for a show to get get highly addicted to and for a high quality binge worthy experience. I've re watched this 13 episode season 3 times and it never gets old but still refreshing. A MUST WATCH

He's an ex-cop, an ex-alcoholic, with an ex-wife and a miserable life. And he might well be a ginger.Yeah, he's divorced, he's got friends on the force and everybody hates him.But he's got a heart and a partner and together they solve crimes. His partner is younger, hotter, with a girlfriend who wants a baby. But he ain't ready to be a father.They're private investigators, they're broke, they drive an old car that sometimes gets towed away, because they are slobbish and don't read signs. They're kinda clumsy, but tough. And isn't that enough?Sure, they'll find the crook but they won't do things by the book. They'll quip their way through life-threatening situations but it's not all a comedy, each have their personal frustrations.

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.

Terriers snuck up on me. I decided to give it a chance because of my sneaking fondness for Donal Logue. The first few episodes were great - sturdy writing, great characterization, and a great look.And then the show kicked into high gear, and I was hooked.It's hard to pinpoint the biggest strength of the show, but if I was forced to, I'd say it was the strength of characterization. People are allowed to be human, not types or underwritten plot-vehicles, but rounded people with shadings. Some of the relationships have clearly evolved over a long period of time - we can sense the back-story exists, even if it's only hinted at here and there. The characters have failings, strengths, loyalties, hatreds, and most of all, a tough determination about getting through their lives as best as they can.
