Donal Logue has suggested that the title of his new show Terriers could be to blame for its low ratings.
The pilot episode of the FX series attracted just 1.6m viewers, while subsequent episodes have seen ratings fall to around half a million.
"We hurt ourselves by having a bad title," Logue told TV Squad. "The title alienates a lot of people... and they've expressed it frankly, which is cool."
Logue, who has gone on tour with co-star Michael Raymond-James to promote the show, also revealed that he gets frustrated when it is described as a comedy.
"For the last three months, all I've been doing is holding people and breaking down," he said. "It feels so deep and poignant and real and hard to me. I've never burst into tears in scenes in anything I've done. Then it's portrayed as this goofball thing and on Hulu it's [described as] a comedy and I'm like, 'What the...?' It drives me bonkers."
