Just watched what I think was the penultimate episode of the season.

Spoiler

Some excellent Kung-fu by the transgender lad, some decent Trash-fu (trailer park martial arts, consistent with MMA type shit) from the charlatan sheriff, and a lack of Menonite-fu (Amish martial arts) as what'shisface was locked up for most of it. It chugs along and thank fuck it looks like his relationship with the deputy is coming to an end, because the Shag-O-Meter has been quivering around the 0 mark most of this season. The one bird (the Native American sister of the guy off the paramedics show) we wanted to get naked didn't really do so in her full splendor, so I'm hoping season 3 gets back to fulfilling the fleshier side of this hilarious and exciting debacle of a TV show.

EDIT: "Third Watch" was the paramedic show I referred to.

I loved the first season, but I just haven't had time to watch the second. I really need to get on it though.

Henry Gale · « **Reply #45 on:** March 22, 2014, 01:27:12 pm »

Loved the second season as much as the first. The ending was brilliant. Really looking forward to season 3 next year.

Yiannis · « **Reply #46 on:** March 24, 2014, 11:43:03 am »

Thought the second season was far better than the first and I liked the first. Improvements on all levels.

'Mondzz' · « **Reply #47 on:** March 24, 2014, 01:23:10 pm »

Enjoyed the 1st season and havent managed to watch past episode 3 of the second. Looks like a marathon is in order if everyone is saying it's good.

Still haven't watched all season 2 yet.

Finally completed second series over xmas - what an enjoyably schlocky show this is.
It's everything a pulp entertainment show should be - tremendous lashings of sex and violence, with great, memorable characters; Job - the Asian trans buddy - is literally fabulous.
It knows what it's all about, and delivers it with great gusto.

And Lili Simmons is amazing.

johnsmithlfc · « **Reply #54 on:** January 6, 2015, 11:38:17 am »

Gotta love Banshee....it's so OTT and crazy that you can't help but like it.
Plenty of lovely ladies and kickass action too.

Can't wait for new season.

Ziltoid · « **Reply #55 on:** January 6, 2015, 04:27:44 pm »

Looking forward to this. Lots of shagging, gratuitous violence and a tranny computer hacker. What's not to like.

Yeah I don't know why they have made it a bit complex. Personally, I had to copy and paste the instructions on a file for a while to remember them.

Anyway, for those who want to know:

"To embed youtube videos. take the link like so:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJS4yp823XE

And turn it into this:

http://www.youtube.com/v/WJS4yp823XE

to do so you have to delete the 'watch?' and replace the '=' with another '/'

Then just insert the new link you've made in between the following flash tags

Yeah watched it last night. 30 seconds in and I remember why I like this programme so much

Spoiler

It looks like the massive native american will play a big part this season. Him and Proctor should keep Hood busy.

Yup, great opening episode. It has everything we expect in Banshee, as the post above mentions you have only to wait 30 secs in

Pistolero · « **Reply #63 on:** January 18, 2015, 11:32:41 am »

Ep 2 is a corker...intriguing plot pointers as well as the regular diet of shooting and goosing

eddiedingle · « **Reply #64 on:** January 24, 2015, 04:25:08 pm »

Ep 3 That fight wow. Best ever.

This show gets better and better for me.

Yiannis · « **Reply #65 on:** January 25, 2015, 07:41:53 am »

This season has been boss. And yes, the last episode had an epic fight.

Pistolero · « **Reply #66 on:** January 25, 2015, 11:19:37 am »

If ever a show didn't need to ramp up the action, violence and mayhem it's Banshee....but that's what happens in Ep 3....terrific stuff ..probably the best episode of the 3 seasons so far..

Pistolero · « **Reply #67 on:** February 10, 2015, 10:34:51 pm »

Last Night's episode...

Henry Gale · « **Reply #68 on:** February 11, 2015, 12:13:18 am »

Yeah it was brilliant. Watched the last 2 episodes on Saturday and loved them both. Hood sure is pissed. You just know sooner or later he'll have to fight that big guy again.

Yiannis · « **Reply #69 on:** February 11, 2015, 10:51:17 am »

Fantastic season.

Spoiler

The writing was on the wall that someone from the good guys inside the police station would die. Too much build up for this not to happen. RIP you beautiful presence.

Got renewed for a fourth season. That's good news.

SP · « **Reply #72 on:** February 13, 2015, 10:37:57 am »

It has really gone bat-shit crazy. In a good way.

And all the major protagonists are now crazed with blood lust again.

We had grenades in the last episode, I think the bazookas are lined up for the finale again...

Henry Gale · « **Reply #73 on:** March 7, 2015, 09:32:58 pm »

Pistolero · « **Reply #74 on:** March 7, 2015, 10:58:23 pm »

Been a terrific action packed season...every episode has felt like a finale so fuck knows what they have in store...Cant wait for it...hands down the most enjoyable show on TV..

Yiannis · « **Reply #75 on:** March 9, 2015, 10:35:43 am »

Absolutely. Filled with action each single one indeed and the kind of that makes you wanna keep watching. Characters are interesting and Kai is a hell of a villain.

red mongoose · « **Reply #76 on:** March 9, 2015, 01:07:19 pm »

This has become one of my favorite shows, one of the shows I look forward to the most. Like someone said above, it knows exactly what it is and what it wants to be, and this is a huge problem for a lot of shows currently ("Homeland" and "Black Sails," to randomly name two). That fucking fight in ep 3 was just the cat's meow and the bee's knees wrapped up in the dog's bollocks. I'm not completely ashamed to say that it is one of the best fight scenes I have ever seen anywhere. I can see a future ep with the nudity of the Native American lady cop, which is something to look forward to even though I am not 12 years old anymore.

That facial in New Orleans in ep 8

Fuck off and take my money already.

Brian Blessed · « **Reply #77 on:** March 9, 2015, 01:08:50 pm »

Loved the first couple of seasons and just been catching up with season 3 over the last few days. Currently on ep 4, love it so far.
