Terriers (2010)
This was actually a good quality show, with interesting characters; especially the co-main character, played by Donal Logue. I heard it was developing a decent fan base, at least locally. But I'm not sure how popular the show was outside of San Diego. Unfortunately, it only lasted one season, about a dozen or so episodes.
The show was set in, and filmed around, my neighborhood. They even filmed a scene at a house two doors up from my house. It was fun to watch this big film crew using half of the block, with their big generators and other equipment. BTW, the crew all went out of their way to be very courteous to the residents who were inconvenienced.
Man, 12 years went by fast. It doesn't seem that long ago.

I watched this in 2010 when it came out and remember really liking it... couldn't tell you what it was about now haha.. but I remember really liking it and being upset that it wasn't renewed for more seasons! I keep seeing it it pop up on my hulu recommendations and have been considering giving it a re-watch.. if i do, I'll keep an eye out for Jim's house!
Hi, Rick!
I'm pretty certain my house never made it into any shots!
It would have been cool, though. That same house on the corner was also used a year or two back for some beer commercial, but I don't know which one.
I wish I had bought the Terriers series DVD set when it was available, but I hadn't thought to do so back then.
My older brother John was an extra in an episode of the HBO series Deadwood. He was made up as a Chinese coolie. Which is weird, because he's always had long hair and a full beard, and he looks more like Tommy Chong, or an aging rock star, than a coolie. He actually had an agent who got him work as an extra in some projects because of his unique look, but I haven't watched anything he was in...
