Haha. I had it paused when I posted that I have started watching, and that there’s a lot going on… the split second I resume here’s what happens

Hard to see Antony Starr as Hood and Highlander, I find.
Anyway, so many good lines from Banshee
This is one of my favorites

I'm four episodes into Lady in the Lake (Apple) and not loving it. I figure I'm more than halfway through the show so I might as well finish it, but is it ever a chore.

I really like Moses Ingram, and it's interesting to see David Corenswet (total prick so far) and trying to picture him as Superman.

As for Banshee...I think I read somewhere that they had to shorten the 4th and Final season because the actors were just getting the absolute crap kicked out of them with all of the fight scenes and were on the verge of revolt.

Such a good show.

Re: Banshee

Copious amounts of Lili Simmons is a draw as well.

I'm really digging the low key humor in this one- 3 episodes in and it's great.

Ivana Miličević is pretty not too bad also.

Just finished watching Terminator Zero on Netflix, binged-watched it last night... absolutely fantastic series. The anime is gorgeous in it too. Highly, highly recommend!

Banshee rocks, just finished the 1st season, love the characters, nice mixture of violence and smut and Lucas reminds me of Dexter the way he escapes nightmare situations. Can't believe I missed this series.

The entire first season is basically the sheriff just losing it while Brock and Siobhan and Yawners just rolling their eyes and then following him in.

Another one who had missed Banshee first time around.
Into S4, only 8 episodes (Which Locke explained why). Really enjoyed it so far.

Obviously the violence is a draw, but they present what should, on the surface, be considered preposterous circumstances, but they sell it.

Never once does "Oh that could never happen" ever take you out of the story. You're along for the ride! You're there for it!

"Yeah okay, lets keep going!"

Pfft...I'd have taken more Banshee! Stupid soft white people! You never saw anyone on Warrior complaining! They'd kill for 10 more episodes!!

Joking aside, I do hope someone saves Warrior. I thought the first season was a little weak and then after that it just cranked up the awesome.

Had to give up on Banshee after about 3 episodes.

Too difficult to censor with kids running around the house. lol.
