Rab Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I've enjoyed the theme song, interestingly the only live performance of it I could find was in Kirkcudbright! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambo_ Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 I've got the first two episodes downloaded on the laptop but haven't watched them yet. Might give it a try tonight. I've watched the first series of the Blacklist and thought it was decent. I'll need to start watching season 2 soon. don't think the first season of the blacklist is finished mate.... there are 22 episodes of which some haven't aired yet :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who else wanted to punch the head clean aff the wife? It's close to the best series I've seen. why? I thought it was brilliant script writing and adds to the excellent way that they have you thinking one thing about a character on;y to have that view changed over the series so far. I think it's superb that she went out and had sex with Cohle and the cool way she told Hart who had the cheek to be angry after shagging that wee lass and the other one.

Jamboman1512 Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Watched episode 5 and 6 yesterday, brilliant. That lass Harrelson cheated on his wife with is stunning, any guys out there who like a bit of nudity in their tv shows i highly recommend Banshee, not just for the stunning women, it's also a great show, that lass is also in it.

Rab Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Yeah, its really good. Its hard to put your finger on why its so enjoyable because I can't think of anything else like it. Matthew McConaughey is definitely part of it, he's brilliant. Woody Harrelson and the rest of the cast are also very good. The setting is great, the deep south, the religious fervour, the poverty, Katrina. The topic is horrible. It gets worse as you watch more episodes. However, its not a gore-fest. There are some terrible scenes, but they're few and far between, especially for an HBO show. I'm fascinated by the fact that next week will apparently close out this storyline, and season 2 will introduce a brand new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamboelite Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) Its a slow burner but very worthwhile watching.

PortyJambo Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Just binge watched the first 7 episodes over the last two nights, and it's phenomenal. Bleak as hell, but fascinating nevertheless. McConaughey and Harrelson are excellent, and whoever takes on the main parts next season will have a hard act to follow. Also,as well as HBO crossover actors, also noticed a couple of Banshee actors in it. I'll put them in spoilers for those watching at Sky Atlantic pace The young girl from the brothel who Marty ends up cheating with plays the wayward Amish girl, who's Kai's niece, in Banshee. Also, the meth cook who gets blown up plays a fanatical Amish teacher turned killer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why they dropped it. It can't have been ratings surely? I thought it was excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
