More quotes by Donal Logue
I have to say that it was a thrilling ride to be on 'Terriers.' It was this odd circumstance where it was really loved by the people it was loved by, but it didn't do well. In fairness to FX, they were just so generous in keeping it on the air the whole year.

I think in a weird way that the entertainment industry is strangely more brutally honest than any other.
Donal Logue
As the season progresses, it's like the doors open up to all the different worlds that were teased about in the pilot.
Donal Logue
Fair or not, it always sucks when everyone wanders back from Sundance talking about how bad the movies were.
Donal Logue
There's a certain kind of existential freedom that comes to people who realize that all the things that they hold onto and that they think define them, once they're gone, there's this new freedom to determine the way you're going to live your life.

It's always surprised me that the most successful and really amazing shows are also the happiest environments, and very welcoming.
Donal Logue
I'd have to say my favorite thing about working on the show, and something that might be intriguing to other people, is that it's just such an amazingly welcoming environment to work in.
Donal Logue
Well Bill Martin and Mike Schiff were the creators and they knew we had to do a family show. Everybody came at it from the angle of having been a kid and a teenager.
