I'm the seed father of the OG Banshee show thread, and whilst I approve of DivisionPosters efforts, they don't really do justice to the first season of Banshee.

Tbh, it was my first ever thread, and I gambled on not only my own emotions, but those of my contemporaries. The OP might be European, or just a humble dude, joined in the early bloom of SA's fame. But it still feels like he's bullying me in a weird passive aggrieved/aggressive way.

We all like Banshee, but word-spunking with rectanglur spoiler text just sends out the wrong message.

Peace.

i) the military base should have been opposite the Bar that Suger and Hood chill out in.
ii) the oriental guy should've been wearing a dress when doing danger hacking.

Personally the head shot bit was excellent (when Hood with a pistol).

Hey, new intro! Could not decide yet if i like it better or not.

There were a lot of great scenes in this episode. The aforementioned Chayton just owns the screen every time he is on.

/Edit for Gooncammery:

The last thing you see before getting hosed


This is basically the whole new problem for Banshee:
Is this guy gay? He's wearing a PINK SHIRT but also a bow tie. He's MAD gay, and statistically, gay men are much more into bdsm than heteronormative men. Why is that? Who gives a poo poo.

great transition work

No. It looks like he's on an escalator going backwards. Or else they shot that bit in reverse.

Much of this season feels like a pretentious art graduate students wet dream. Too much money skunked away on fancy clever shots, dreamt up after each vape hit.

And there was pretty much only one overt rape scene so far in the show.

That was way better than season 2. It felt more confident and the money shot of the multi-screen fight scene in Sugar Fists escape mobile was objectively one of the best bits.

Season 4 won't be as good, because there are serious geography issues with the direction the series is going in. Unless Jowb is being held at a black site SOMEWHERE IN BANSHEE. That would be the best result.

Season 4 will be fine if the writers don't go down the route of magical children living under trees.

Having magical children living under trees is not hard fantasy HBO/GRRM.
