I was laughing so hard during the scene where he beats up the MMA fighter that I fell off my chair. Oddly, it is one of the least nonsensical events in the entire first season."Both teams played hard my man" - Sheed

As I said, great, awesome, schlock. It's always good for at least two or three, "No... NO! They can't do that! They did that! WTF? They can do that! They just did it! I can't believe that happened!" nearly dying of laughter moments each episode.

Joey wrote: View PostYou should write show reviews .. this convinced me to check it out. Haha Banshee is it?
Here's the fight scene I referred to above. Keep in mind, he's an ex-con posing as a SHERRIFF and going to arrest a championship MMA fighter in the scene. Insanity follows.

slaw wrote: View PostLOL. I may have oversold it! I don't actually think it's that good of a show but I appreciate that they've created this absurd, ridiculous nonsense and they embrace it wholeheartedly and try to make it even more absurd, ridiculous and nonsensical. You have to appreciated schlock to like it. Banshee.

Its on Starz, which is a pretty obscure channel from what I can gather .. sorta like AMC I think .. I was able to find it online though.
And ya, Band of Brothers is pretty fantastic. If you enjoyed that, might I recommend Generation Kill. Its an HBO miniseries which is kind of similar, but covers the Invasion of Iraq.
Spartacus, black sails.
Another great show is penny dreadfull

Gotta tell you, I haven't been watching much TV lately but when I have its be those Football Life documentaries on legendary greats of the NFL. Those things are like an addictive drug to me. I have them on PVR setup as a series recording.
I am going to watch those recommendations soon though; I'm starting to see repeats on the football docs.
