I finally got around to watching Banshee and I regret waiting so long.  It is a highly entertaining show about a criminal who, after a freak incident, ends up assuming the identity of lawman and becomes a town sheriff.  Also there was no wokeness that I noticed (though I wasn’t looking for it like some guys do).  I was worried that when I saw Antony Starr all I was gonna see was Homelander (The Boys which had a good S1 and a shit S2), but considering Homelander always had the blonde hair with the costume it was surprisingly a nonissue.

And holy shit, was there some serious talent on that show.  For me the hottest was EASILY the Native American chick. That woman was almost TOO attractive.





Anyway, if you aren't offended by the occasional softcore porn scene you should definitely give it a try if you haven't already.

Yea, great show.  Prison scene I particularly remember as being insanely brutal.

Best series nobody ever watched.

the last season, different team with a lower budget sucked.

Banshee is awesome.

I was going to sign up using Lucas Hood as my screen name, but someone else here saw the show before I did.

Yes, the last season sucked with the new crew taking over. Ultimately,  the ratings were going down and finally canceled.

Yeah, the last season dropped off a fair amount. Thankfully they still had a decent finale that, IMO, wrapped up everything relatively well.

Great show.

It's hard for me to believe the main character is Homelander on The Boys. I hate Homelander but loved Lucas.

Just makes me believe he's a good actor.

It was a pretty good show.  Agree on all counts.  

Season 3 of the boys is pretty awesome.  They must have listened to feedback from fans.  It dropped the woke shit and seems to make fun of it.  Homelander deserves awards for S3.

Yeah, that last season was weird.  It seemed like a different show.  During the final season of a drama (and especially for a shortened final season) you should be wrapping things up for the major characters.  Not introducing a shit ton of new characters and new story lines that ultimately end up feeling like filler.

But is it similar?

The whole "here is some special ops team that goes on a new mission every episode (or close to it)" just didn't do much for me.  Once the men's families became more involved in the story I was out.

Are there long story arcs or is it a "mission/villain/monster of the week" type show?

I'm done with The Boys.  To come back after the Mt Everest sized shit pile that was S2 (even if you removed all the woke stuff it was still the worst S2 for a show that had a good S1 I've ever seen in my life) would be like a badly abused spouse going back to their abuser because they "promised" to not do it again.  If you believe them, go back, and end up getting abused again... well... that's on you.

And lots of ‘gun porn’.

If you have HBO already, def check it out.  No idea about ‘the Unit’.

The Native American girl was my #1 with no one else being even in the same ballpark.

However, for #2 I couldn't decide between the girl cop and the Amish girl.

Two minor criticisms I have about the show:

1.  Firearm accuracy fluctuates GREATLY depending on what the script needs.  The same character that was rattling off high pressure 25+ yard head shots with a handgun suddenly can't get the broadside of a barn with an AR-15, full auto, etc.

2.  The insane durability of the characters in fights.  Especially the 120 pound female characters.  The best example of this was the brawl b/w Anna and the Ukrainian henchman.  For nearly an entire episode they were beating the hell out of each other and doing things that would put any human on earth in the ER 10 times over and yet they just kept on fighting.  And then after these brutal fights the characters usually have just a few bruises and that's about it.

There’s a cast interview from The Boys where they are answering fan questions. One of them was which actor is most like their character? And the whole cast unanimously answered   Antony Starr.
