Banshee: The Complete First Season (Viva/Rpkg/DVD)From the creator of True Blood, this exciting new Cinemax action drama charts the twists and turns that follow Lucas Hood (Antony Starr), an ex-convict who improbably becomes sheriff of a rural, Amish-area town while searching for a woman he last saw 15 years ago, when he gave himself up to police to let her escape after a jewel heist. Living in Banshee under an assumed name, Carrie Hopewell (Ivana Milicevic) is now married to the local DA, has two children (one of whom may be Lucas’), and is trying desperately to keep a low profile – until Lucas arrives to shake up her world and rekindle old passions. Complicating matters is the fact that Banshee is riddled by corruption, with an Amish overlord, Kai Proctor (Ulrich Thomsen), brutally building a local empire of drugs, gambling and graft. With the help of a boxer-turned-barkeeper named Sugar Bates (Frankie Faison), Lucas is able to stay on even footing with Kai and his thugs, and even manages to bring a measure of tough justice to Banshee. But eventually, Lucas’ appetite for pulling heists pulls him and Carrie into a dangerous cauldron of duplicity, exacerbated when Mr. Rabbit (Ben Cross), the NY mobster they once ripped off, closes in with vengeance on his mind.]]>

Fulfills all those retributive desires in your soul
To put it bluntly, I was amazed! Note that I do have cable TV but that I do not subscribe to the titty channels, so that the relatively infrequent nudity and just-below X-rated sex was a delightful surprise, as were the frequent F-bombs that occurred exactly when expected (as they would in a more or less real-life situation, depending on your personal experiences). My partner was offended by the language (and the sex) so I had to watch this all alone but that didn't mean I enjoyed it any less.You can get the plot anywhere (Wiki is a good place to start) so I'll not go into that. What I will HIGHLY recommend is watching each season's BANSHEE ORIGINS set of clips so you can get a heads up on what you're about to see without having to figure it out piecemeal from the episodes themselves. Note that this is absolutely necessary at the beginning of season four, where a lapse of 18-months has occurred.The clips were scripted and shot separately from the episodes themselves, as explained by the productors on the commentary audio. I had originally thought that they were outtakes or sections that were cut for time purposes but that was not the case. THEY DO EXPLAIN A BUNCH OF STUFF!I can say that each season opens with a whole new set of problems and a bunch of characters whom the writers were not afraid of killing off just to torment the survivors and shock the audience.To save time and effort, this same review will be posted for seasons 2 through 4 (the last seaon of the series).

Banshee is almost perfect.
Unbelievably good, vastly underrated.You WILL NOT regret buying the whole series, although you have to wait until October until the final season is available on DVD. I'm 61 years old, and I've never seen action scenes so well done.The fight between Burton and Nola is the best scene I've ever watched.You care about these characters a lot as you learn why they are like they are.RECOMMENDED HIGHLY.This review was not paid for in any way.

Banshee review.
The first season was okay, I've only started to watch the 2nd season. I will rate higher once I've watched all the seasons.
