Banshee Origins

If you're interested in an action series, this one is it. Better than almost any action series you've seen on TV, and up there with Miami Vice. It's not merely the action, it's everything. The music and the photography are wonderful. The editing is really great - something you only expect to see in first class films. What pulls it together is great acting and really clever scripts that have multiple interacting plots.

OK. It's violent. Not me rely violent, but really violent. So stay away if your squeamish. And yes, there's a lot of nudity, including some frontal nudity. So if that offends you, this isn't the series you ant to watch.

One of my favorite series. Incredible actors, writing, and production. Intense and emotional. It's got everything. You fall in love w/ the characters - the story line is intriguing keeps you entertained and guessing. Brilliant.

I wish the series would come back nothing like it on TV now.

One of the few series that are actually allowed to adorn themselves with the genre action. There's not much to say. It's about the simple things in life (violence, tits, guns and gangsters). And yet the plot is amazing. At first the series was too brutal, too superficial for me. But over time there is more depth, the characters develop and the initially quite superficial plot turns into an interesting mix of different "interest groups" that violently collide.

A series that shows the backstories of the characters in Banshee, especially Lucas Hood.

Interesting supplement to Banshee. Shows well the backstories and blends them well into the main Banshee narrative. Not as compelling as Banshee, as it really isn't substantial enough to stand on its own. However, an entertaining and interesting enough add-on.
