SummaryEx-con Lucas Hood (Antony Starr) may be the sheriff of Banshee, Pennsylvania, but he's not reformed even as he's hiding from the gangsters he and his old partner, Carrie Hopewell (Ivana Milicevic), betrayed.

As a drama, Banshee is preposterous. It is ludicrous. It regularly defies laws of both plausibility and physics, and there's usually at least one moment per episode where I have to pause the action because I can't stop laughing at how ridiculous it all is.... And that is why I've come to love it.

If you aren’t watching Banshee, I’d say now’s the time to climb aboard. It’s a show that’s just hitting its stride, and that stride averages about 100 miles an hour.

Keeps staying on top. They need a new Emmy category: Best Action Series, nominees are, Banshee, Ray Donovan, Power, Blindspot, Blacklist. Used to be Sons of Anarchy and Breaking Bad. Banshee takes the top action though. I can't believe this is going to be the last season, so bummed!

If you can cast aside your skepticism for just a few minutes, you will learn to enjoy what a gem this show is and has become. Great character development and outstanding cinematography and setting. Loving this ride.

This show is my addiction; this one has me counting the days until the next episode or season. Yes, there is lots of violence and sex, but it is so more than that. The background story deepens with every season and its unpredictable and original. The actors are really putting their own blood sweat into the fight scenes, its not just cheap shaky camera effects. I think they are the hardest working actors out there today who go beyond memorizing lines and good acting skills. Waiting for Hoon Lee to be nominated for awards for being the most badass, brilliant cross-dressing computer hacker ever! I love his attitude problem :)

The best TV show you're not watching. Original story. Hard fighting scenes. Enough sexiness to be appreciated by both sexes. And the cinematic beauty should be award winning. And my favourite part: the only show where the females also get to butt whip the males. It's must-rewind choreography. Its awesome.

Its smartness comes shining through despite the claptrap (none worse than the parade of sex scenes, soft-porn variety, whose noisiness is exceeded only by their unconvincingness); its story, littered with intriguingly repellent characters, like Kai Proctor (Ulrich Thomsen), local evil tycoon, grows ever more enticing.

I very much enjoyed season 1 and 2 but the third one kinda pissed me off quite often. Sometimes the editing gets very distracting and it seems the villains are just really bad and brutal this time. In terms of violence IMO it's trying too hard this time. It's very predictable and could have been handled in a more subtle way...
