  • The Cinemax show Banshee has long been on my radar as I've heard nothing but good things about it, despite the relatively low audience viewership. Due to this, I decided to check it out and now, it's the focus of today's Lost and Found. Banshee, now viewed on HBO Max is a great action television series led by the wonderful Antony Starr as the enigmatic lawman Lucas Hood. The show pulls literally no punches as it is in constant go mode, with terrific action set pieces, brutal violence and some of the best character work I've seen on TV in a long time. You can't go wrong with this easy to binge TV action drama!

    Hey Tots, I've returned from a bit of a hiatus. I've struggled as of recent with difficulties in physical/mental health. I absolutely love UA-cam and want to continue to do this as much as possible. I definitely need everyone's support as much as possible. Simply liking the video, sharing it and doing whatever you can really, really helps! Banshee is a great TV series and one, I think a lot of you will like! I also have some 'plosives' in this video and that's due to my pop filter breaking. Hopefully that will be fixed for the next video. Thanks as usual for supporting and I hope to see you all on the next video! - Mr. Tot

Every actor and actress pour their entire soul into every shot, and it shows, in the best possible sense.

    I have had a friend telling me for years to watch this. I finished watching the recent season of the boys and was googling the actors and saw Homelander was in the banshee show my buddy had been telling me to watch. I am so happy I finally saw this. I haven't enjoyed a show this much in so long. Everything is about super heroes now a days and man it was great to watch something that had nothing to do with superheroes. This is a must watch!

    "Banshee" is one of my all time favorites. A couple of others that I thought were a little similar were "Justified" and "Longmire". They were both good as well.

    TIL Banshee and Trueblood have the same screenwriter who is Alan Ball.
    I watched Trueblood earlier this year then I started watching Banshee because I heard Antony Starr was in it.
    No wonder why I hooked to the show so quick and there’s no doubt why there are so many explicit scenes.
    Not to mention Job who has Lafayette’s attitude, super sarcastic and savage. Love both characters!
    Banshee is one of the top ‘must watch’ show that I’d recommend. Really interesting storyline and Antony is a great actor.
    He actor with his eyes: when he’s mad, nervous, scare. You’ll see it all through his eyes. It’s amazing.

Bonus non-spoiler detail; Bunker’s face tatt fades as he continues on the show and completes his arc. By the show’s end, it’s nearly invisible.

    Banshee wasn't as slow burn and laid back as Justified, but it was still a Modern Western. As much as I love bot shows, they equally fall into that unbelievable territory. Raylan would not be on active duty after firing his weapon that many times, and Hood shouldn't have survived the first episode. Still an awesome badass show. It's sad that most only know Antony Starr from The Boys.

    Just finished binging the show two weeks ago, and this show is definitely one of the greatest action/drama series to hit the small screen. The show is damn near perfect, the only thing keeping the show from being a perfect 10/10 is the camera work and aesthetics. The show was shot on 24fps, and the action scenes can come off as too blurry sometimes, they should have shot at 48 or 60FPS. Also the handheld camera movements can be two shakey and juddering, they should have used a stead cam. Last thing, the town of Banshee isn’t exactly the most aesthetically pleasing location, I know it’s an intentional production decision, but the way each scene looks can be off putting. Don’t get me wrong, what the show lacks in style it more than makes up in substance. This show is on par with Breaking Bad and The Shield in terms of great acting, great dialogue, memorable characters, suspension and drama. Check it out if you have are in the mode for a gritty action drama.
