I should warn you, it is excessively violent and there's also a lot of sex. But it's a great mix of action and intrigue.
Definitely check out the pilot!
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So yes I watched Banshee during its run. I think the show ultimately fails the "does this show make sense?" test, but no matter. The show is super-intense (as Rayne said, very violent) and the sex often does not make sense.
I will watch Season 2 because of the WTF factor, but it is just entertainment for me.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I am down with the sex and violence. I'll give it a look-see!

Those are two of the three reasons I've watched True Blood for years now! (Nelsan Ellis being the third.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Is this the right thread for The Newsroom?

Since it's HBO, this would be the place.
