  • 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 CZcams 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

And of Course, the main characters killed it as well. Hood and Burton did such a ridiculously good job with the action/fight scenes.

    Jon Gabrus did a mini-series in his High and Mighty podcast several years ago, I believe the episodes were called "Fanshee" where he and Sean Clements (iirc, if not: Hayes Davenport) talked about how nuts the show is, had writers on as guests and I believe got the guy who played the Amish uncle villain as a guest.

    I absolutely cannot believe that Lucas Hood and Homelander are played by the same person.
    Antony Starr is genuinely the best actor I've ever seen!
    I'm so glad he's finally getting global recognition, because his acting skill surpasses Megafamous actors like Tom Cruise and Chris Hemsworth ANY day. He deserves all of this!

    8:19 you don't need to tell me twice. I've never seen this show, but if Tom Pelphrey shows up... you KNOW he's got shit to do and scenes to steal. He's such an underrated actor that I often forget about him, but whenever he shows up in stuff I'm like OH IT'S THAT GUY!! and ends up being the best _characters_

    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.

    This show was on my watchlist for ages but I had to wait for it to come to Binge. And I knew I would have to binge watch it too so I put off watching it for awhile but eventually I did and boy am I glad. It is genuinely some of the best tv drama out there. Definitely a Top 10 show alongside Vikings, Sons Of Anarchy and Breaking Bad. Season 4 started a little weak as I absolutely hate time skips, especially when characters are killed off screen or the environment drastically changes or theres a shift in the story but it slowly came back and by episode 6 it was very strong again and I believe it has one of the best series endings/wrap ups in tv. I genuinely cannot recommend this show enough to anyone reading this. If you haven't already, please watch it! Theres 38 episodes each between 45 and 60 minutes long. You won't regret it. Although I will warn you, the final episode, although it may be one of the best episodes in the series, it will leave you wanting just a little bit more of a conclusion.
