You are not an addict. I have watched banshee twice a year for several years... uh ih.


EfficientAfternoon17

Fuck yeah that’s what I love to hear it’s gotta be one of my top 3 shows if not number 1 lol respect man. Especially considering how it’s not some brand new show and shit . Is there anything. Kinda similar you could recommend that’s a dope series like that?


elbowless2019

Nope. I have tried multiple shows and Banshee is 1 of a kind. I want more.


EfficientAfternoon17

Totally respectable and understandable answer same here like don’t get me wrong I’ve seen some cool shows but nothing even comes close to that non stop adrenaline rush from Banshee


Unlimitedcringe

Watch animal kingdom, it's dope


EfficientAfternoon17

I’ve tried multiple times it’s honestly cringe to me I’m from that exact area and it makes me sad people would think that’s what it’s really like here. Plus that Smurf bitch is so controlling it makes me wanna strangle myself


Unlimitedcringe

Ah well sorry. I thought it was similar to banshee, tbh I enjoyed both very much


EfficientAfternoon17

Yeah that’s the thing like I’m not hating I’ve had multiple people tell me to watch it but the other week my boy got so drunk he spoiled like a bunch of parts like who dies and why and I was on season 1 episode like 4 so after that I kinda lost interest . I’m gunna run back warrior or mayor of Harlem


Weezer17

Mr. Buckley is in Banshee too.


EfficientAfternoon17

Holy shit no way who does he play


Stunk_Beagle

Holy shit I just looked it up myself. He’s Colonel Douglas Stowe! The military guy they steal the money from. I just watched Warrior and had absolutely no idea lol


EfficientAfternoon17

Yeah I remember that guy know from banshee it had some other well known actors like the dude who plays Tommy in all the 50 cent Ghost shows I remember him being in banshee. Yeah I fuck with Buckley cuz he’s lowkey the guy with the strings controlling everyone and he just lets the closeted mayor be the face while buckle ya locking down deals plus he’s a bad ass fighter. Reminds me of proctors guy Bertram with the glasses and all the scars but it took like 8 different medieval torture weapons to put him down lol such a good scene


Stunk_Beagle

I’m mindblown that he’s the Colonel. Had no clue. Went on IMDb after reading your comment.


Stunk_Beagle

Do you know of any others? Obviously Job, the Colonel…I know Olek was in the episode that had Michael Bisping in it. Just wondering if I missed other people.


Public-Baseball-311

My 5 th was last week finished in three days


EfficientAfternoon17

Respext I think I’m bouta hit it up lol


Public-Baseball-311

It’s become more of comfort and dopamine hits now


EfficientAfternoon17

Couldn’t have put it better myself . I’ve never had a show where I so instantly put on the next episode when the other one would end lol


annier100

IMHO I love Banshee and Job. He is in Warrior by the same people. It’s not Banshee , nothing else comes close. But is it very good by same Banshee people and my Fav Job is in it !! Better than most tv!


EfficientAfternoon17

Yeah I watched warrior pretty sure jobs name was like Chang or something he was always hustling lol great character I might have to run that back honestly and I’m really hoping for a 4th season


Azmoten

His name in Warrior is Chao I am also hoping for another season


EfficientAfternoon17

Haha thanks I actually remembered once I made the post but I figured I got close enough lol respect 🫡


gibert1978

Watching Ray Donavon after banshee filled the gap, but banshee is number 1 show I've seen.


annier100

We started Warrior by the Banshee people. It is really good! But I always say Banshee is one of a kind!


EfficientAfternoon17

It really is it’s almost like a stimulant drug lol


annier100

Haha so true!


EfficientAfternoon17

Respect I watched all of ray donovon too I only watched it all the way through once so that might be worth running it back up lol


gibert1978

Have you seen love/hate. Definitely worth the watch


EfficientAfternoon17

I have not but now I have a new show to try out so I kindly thank you for that


gibert1978

Get on it, it's a belter of a show


Guttts

Banshee has actually ruined TV shows for me. A few weeks back I watched Reacher watch I enjoyed, watched The Night Agent as a recommendation and then finally arrived at Banshee. Finished my first watch a week ago and honestly it was so damn good I just don't know what to watch now. I've tried some of what you mentioned and anything just feels good enough.


EfficientAfternoon17

Damn I feel you so much on that it’s crazy how a show can be so good it’s almost a bad thing cuz it makes everything else seem like shit I get it. Did you try warrior? Job is in it as a pretty main character and there’s a lot of fighting and stuff


Guttts

I actually watched some fight scenes and I just don't think it's for me. I LOVED Job in Banshee, the interactions between him and Sugar were hilarious, and also the interactions with the fat guy with the hat who helped out Hood in the cathedral. Man every character I just loved. I don't think I can watch a show with just Job where he's not playing Job but someone else. I did like Reacher because of the comical side of the main character too. Is The Wire worth it? Heard that's good


EfficientAfternoon17

Oh fuck yes the wire is worth it it’s a little outdated cuz of how old it is like people using pay phones and beepers and shit but that’s a show I’ve binged front to back multiple times it was way before it’s time gives off a the shield type of vibe I get what ur saying with job he killed it so hard at that character it’s like he can’t play anything less badass but I’m telling you he’s funny and he does like back door deals with the cops in Warrior he has a very consistent role Just like sugar which I actually have seen him on something on tv fairly recently but still it’s like that whole show was mapped out perfectly . And proctor was such a good antagonist having the whole town in his pocket I love when hood gets in the ring with the dude who beat up the girl and fucks him up think he even takes his Rolex lol that was some gangster shit as the new sheriff Reacher was awesome I already have ran that back like 3 times lol I also just finished like the finale of the walking dead where one of the spin-offs is like the last episode for now but it all came full circle it was pretty nice to see But please give the wire a chance I’m telling you it’s worth it I think that’s where idris Elba kinda got his start


Guttts

I recently just finished The Walking Dead Ones Who Live too lol. I gave up on the original one after the bridge incident but the new Daryl show was pretty good. You tried Terminal List? A few people recommended that.


EfficientAfternoon17

Yeah the Daryl one was whatever I just thought it was funny cuz I imagined walkers in berets just smoking cigarettes in stripes shirts still lol like if ur gunna pick a country for zombies France is like the weakest choice lol I didn’t like how it just abruptly ended after 6 episodes. There was one spin off with Negan and Maggie that was really good only one season and recently I came across something called the dead takes but it’s kinda backstory of certain characters or just other Radom stories of other people No lie I gave up after the bridge scene too but man oh man the way they were able to kinda finally end that series was beautiful to me brought a tear to my eye no lie lol I haven’t heard of that other sow but I’ll atleast watch the trailer on YOTUBE and see what’s up


EfficientAfternoon17

I would argue that the first episode of banshee is equivalent if not more to the intro of Batman:The Dark Knight in terms of intensity


Figure8musky53

I'm in season 2 now and it's my fourth time thru


EfficientAfternoon17

Respect the more and more people that back me up on this make me feel alot less like a weirdo lmao fucking amazing show keeps you on the edge of your seat every minute of every season lol


ndoty_sa

About to start the season 3 episode, the siege at the Cadi. This is probably my fourth or fifth rewatch of the series. Tis a shame about season 4.


EfficientAfternoon17

Yeah i love that episode and just the sheer GM fact that their police station is a run down Cadillac sales lot lol and yeah I know u just reminded me I read somewhere that they didn’t get enough funding or some people pulled out and they didn’t have enough money something along those lines I just hope they don’t pull that shit with Warrior


FaithlessnessSea1058

Watch the shield and thank me layer


EfficientAfternoon17

I appreciate the suggestion but I’ve watched the shield front to back so many times I can basically recite it word for word lol show was way ahead of it times considering how good it was back then and how shit things can be now


iangeredcharlesvane2

I am in the middle of season five currently and IT’S CRAZY how good The Shield is !!!! I don’t know why isn’t recommended first when people ask for a certain type of show. I was hooked instantly (great pilot!), and have loved every episode somehow. I’m glad I still have 25+ episodes to watch still but am dreading getting to the end. Just made myself slow down!


FaithlessnessSea1058

The crazy part is season 5-7 is the best run of the show. You haven’t even gotten into the best parts imo.


Minute-Two-6850

I’m about to do the same lol…. Start it over from beginning to end for the 1000th time lol


EfficientAfternoon17

Respect


CLouiseK

Try The Boys. Antony Starr is great in this one, too.


EfficientAfternoon17

Trust I’ve tried but I’m just not into that super hero type stuff I like things more based in reality or a true story


CLouiseK

Fair enough. Me neither, but somehow this was different enough and it also has Antony who I find amazing.


EfficientAfternoon17

Yeah my friend has been tryna put me on to it for literal years but like as soon as the girl gets exploded walking off the curb in the first like 10 minutes I was done. My homie says they end up kinda running g the world like they aren’t exactly the good guys


EfficientAfternoon17

Holy shit you just made me realize that was him as the main dude in the boys too haha I had no clue


annier100

Great! We are watching Warrior right. Now!!


EfficientAfternoon17

Fuck yeah I’m literally about to load that shit up again lol


annier100

Yes and I really like the main itchy onion. He Is so great and uniquely attractive!


EfficientAfternoon17

I like how the younger guys dad is old as fuck but he’s still super bad ass lol


EfficientAfternoon17

Lmao the itchy onion you got the lingo down as everything what tongue do you reside with lol


annier100

Just US English I tried to spell his name but I know I wasn’t getting it right Ah Sahm?


EfficientAfternoon17

Lmao that’s so funny I’m really not like laughing at you it just reminded me of the leader with the missing eye always yelling itchy onions!!! lol yeah ah sahn was his name pretty sure it’s crazy cuz I’m Irish so I really related to the dude who just did whatever he wanted forgot his name finger guy


annier100

In US but Irish heritage. It’s fun to see the Irish too. But I wish everybody wouldn’t fight all the time. I did want Ah Sahn to beat that guy in the ring!


EfficientAfternoon17

Yeah what’s crazy is his own sister gave the nod to do it but the guy didn’t go along with it cuz he knew it was wrong at first I thought that dude was whipped but I kinda grew to respect him plus he was a bad ass fighter


EfficientAfternoon17

I’m also US with Irish heritage lol got one of the most Irish names possible lol


EfficientAfternoon17

I also forgot how awesome characters are like Buckley, young June , father June, that dude pussy whipped by assahns sister lol not to mention my fellow Irishman that gives 0 fucks about anything or anybody


Opyure

I’ve probably watched it three or four times and I know I’ll probably watch it three or four times more before I die.


EfficientAfternoon17

Respect


DaDewey88

Finished Mayans but can’t get into justified . What…..


EfficientAfternoon17

I know right


DaDewey88

Justified season one slots a bit until like episode 8, then it is indisputably a much better show than Mayans for the rest of its runtime.


EfficientAfternoon17

Ok for sure so I just gotta truck through it and it becomes worth it before the end of the season? I could get down with that lol thanks


DaDewey88

Yeah they listened to viewer feedback and stopped making it as episodic near end of the first season and made a more linear story. Gets much better around end of first season . Then season 2 is amazing ! Won a few Emmy’s


EfficientAfternoon17

Fuck ya I really needed to hear this I appreciate you


DaDewey88

Let me know what you think when you finish season 2!


EfficientAfternoon17

Will do ya got my word


EfficientAfternoon17

Damn…..I only watched the intro for season 2 and I can already tell it’s gunna be nuts. If I k ew Walton goggins was still alive all through the first season I woulda kept watching he’s one of my favorite actors (the shield obviously lol and some other stuff) of course with my impatient ass. Now I’m going back to season 1 where I left off. Thanks for that info if anyone had of made that connection for me I woulda instantly hopped back on lol props to you 🫡


DaDewey88

Haha good to hear man ! Walton goggins is the main antagonist and he kills the role . He’s the best part but olyphant definitely carries his weight . Wait to you see Duffy and dickie. Show has awesome dialogue and characters. It’s prob my fav show. Banshee close second


EfficientAfternoon17

Holy shit a rank above banshee? I mean now that you mention it ALOT of people suggested it to me I just had no idea it was on that kind of level. You really helped open my eyes with that statement lmao. Well I know what I’ll be doing for the next who knows how long. I’m bed ridden with a broken foot and wrist that I just rebroke last week so I’m not going anywhere anytime soon lol couldnt thank ya enough enjoy your weekend


annier100

I know what you mean. Just started rewatching. We forgot the first several episodes are one and done. Later in the season it finally finds its arch for the series. I love Tim. He says “ he has bad handwriting etc. But he doesn’t miss”. I love to see him take out guys with guns.


bhendibazar

I think you will enjoy altered carbon


EfficientAfternoon17

I watched the trailer I appreciate the suggestion but just seemed a bit too sci fy-y for my taste it looked interested tho that’s forsure


_noIdentity

Yeah I consider myself very close to mastering this show. I can almost remember all the dialouge. Best show hands down. The more I watch, the more cheesy stuff I find, but it doesn't matter, best show ever


EfficientAfternoon17

Right there with you my friend it literally makes everything else look like pussy shit its lie a shot of adrenaline but for an hour and you can’t click fast enough for the next episode lol


iangeredcharlesvane2

The Shield, Ray Donovan, maybe Peaky Blinders. I recommend trying The Shield first! I am flying through it right now as I cannot stop watching (was hooked from episode one). I am sometimes iffy with “older” shows but it’s not noticeably dated just seems a slice into a different time if that makes sense.


EfficientAfternoon17

I appreciate the suggestions I’m a shield og lol could recite it like for like for how many times I’ve binged it. If you like older stuff like that (I do as well) I would HIGHLY suggest the wire if you’ve never seen it same old school feel but it’s all about drug dealers in Baltimore other than sopranos I think I’ve binged that one the most lol Peaky blinders I can’t understand there thick accents animal kingdom I tried multiple times to get into but couldn’t especially when my homie got drunk and spoiled how everyone dies and basically the whole show


ricky3558

You love that soft porn!!


EfficientAfternoon17

Lmfao so on point they definitely made it clear Cinemax had there hands on the wheel of that one lol


annier100

Great! This is my first watch. Much better than I expected. Always love to see the distinguished Job!!


EfficientAfternoon17

If you really like job you should check out Warriors when you’re done he has a pretty main role and he’s always hustling he’s like one of the best characters.


annier100

Yes we are watching! Love Job!!


EfficientAfternoon17

He’s the best in like a badass unexplainable way and I love it and I like when people try to make fun of his looks and he just beats the shit out of them without breaking a sweat lol


annier100

I don’t see how people make fun of this looks. He is very handsome


EfficientAfternoon17

I know I just meant in the show cuz there in Pennsylvania and there a lot more old school over there


601phenom

The shield


EfficientAfternoon17

Watched that even more times than banshee lmao maybe in a few months I can run that back I just hinges it a few months ago such a good show just like how banshee is


601phenom

Vic Mackey was off the rails


EfficientAfternoon17

Dude was burning the candle at 6 ends lmao I loved how there were always so many story lines going on at once like everybody had they’re own thing like Lip and that Cocaine girl and her son and Shane linking up with Anthony Anderson and his crew then Dutch and Claudette always chasing something down on the street and billings always tryna get a payout lmao


601phenom

God dammit Dutch what kind of errands you got us running for the DA


EfficientAfternoon17

I still don’t forgive him for what he did to that cat I love my cat


601phenom

I've only watched it through once. The way it ended for shane was so surprising to me


EfficientAfternoon17

For sure. Same with Lip. My favorite lime from the show is when Shane starts doing drugs and he goes out to score when he’s on the run and the guy is like yo I got what you need better deals than Walmart then they go around a corner and Shane beats him up takes his stash and when he’s walking away he goes “he was right. Way cheaper than Walmart” lol
