I was recommended this show and I am about 4 episodes in to season 1. While it’s good - it’s not what I would call great. It’s a bit cheesy. Right now it reminds me of something I’d see on The CW…but with graphic sex and violence.
shareBanshee found its footing from Day 1. If you are not engaged by episode 3, then you are not the target audience.
I have never had ONE PERSON to whom I to whom I recommended Banshee not only thank me, but thank me profusely.
I didn’t say it was bad and I’m not going to abandon it. I’m engaged enough. But I sure as hell wouldn’t thank anyone “profusely” for exposing it to me either 😂
It just has that heavy mid-2000’s “renegade” vibe (obviously) that makes it feel dated. I was curious if that dissipates over time. Maybe I’ll just get used to it.
If you see no difference between Banshee and the Lorenzo Lamas vehicle, Renegade, you’re not the target audience. I stand by my “profuse” statement.
shareYeah, well - I ended up dumping it. I found it all a bit silly - but I really really tried, though. I guess there's no accounting for taste. I do love Antony as Homelander. He should be swimming in Emmy's for that role.
P.S. I didn't literally mean the show "Renegade". I just meant that was a popular theme in the mid 2000's.
