Terriers was a crime drama on FX back in the autumn of 2010. You probably didn't watch it. If you did, you would quickly realise it was the best show on TV. But sadly, it got cancelled. However, it managed to have a perfect single season.

The show was a comedy-drama about two unlicenced Private Investigators in San Diego. One is a recovering alcoholic, and the other a former criminal. It is kind of like Veronica Mars, only with adults.
Man, I started watched that tv show Terriers last night. Why didn't you tell me about it sooner?

A small, often annoying dog. Often held by petty high-income families. Can't stack up to "you're my mate" breeds like the German shepherds or the Labradors.

Terriers were originally bred for killing vermin (ex. mice), but that heritage is long gone...
That damn terrier can't stop making noise.

A terrier wanted to kill the day, but my German shepherd kicked him in the shin.

1. A typically black dog with white markings ranging from 10-25 lbs, the Boston terrier is known as the "American Gentleman."

2. Reference to the cult following the breed has developed.
"Look a Boston Terrier! I have to go meet the owner and swap stories of all the Bostons we have ever raised, stretching into antiquity."

"BOSTON!"

- followed by much petting and happiness.
