Anyone notice the 'nod' to BANSHEE??


Did anyone notice when Mac picked up the newspaper 'classifieds' that the article on the Sports page underneath read 'SUGAR BATES WINS CRUISERWEIGHT TITLE'.....? Or something to that effect--- I immediately thought about HOOD paying SUGAR back the cash he first borrowed from him AND got his TITLE BELT back for him out of the Pawn Shop....!!!

The intro countdown has its similarities, but then again so did 'Strike Back'

Good job jumbo and nice catch as well by the OP. It's nice to see several of us Banshee junkies are watching and hopefully enjoying Quarry.

Awesome job on the side by side pics!! I made this original post, recognized the name etc, but totally didn't even think about that being "the actual article!!!" SUGAR had posted on the wall of THE FORGE!!! AWESOME!! Totally geeked out when I saw the pics!! LOL

reply

Wow, awesome catch man.. Makes me sad though since we'll never see sugar again lol

reply

No kidding... I totally miss BANSHEE... I mean I fell in love with that show and all the characters etc. Hated they ended it, but, I know it cant go on forever- or drag on 7 or 8 Seasons like SONS OF ANARCHY for example.... I at least wish it would've been a 'FULL' Season 4 instead of only 8 episodes etc that it was.. Oh well... I will cry later ?

reply

Don’t cry. Rejoice that QUARRY exists now.

Wouldn’t it be neat if we saw young Rabbit? Or if Sugar actually turned up.

It would make total sense for Quarry to work a job for Rabbit's mob.

reply

True....True!!! And if we see RABBIT like at one of his hideouts or something, then it only makes sense for 'BABY CARRIE HOPEWELL' or baby ANASTASIA to be crawling around and listening and learning and already soaking up gangster knowledge and studying fight techniques and weapons expertise!!! LMBO..... OK OK- MAYBE I GOT CARRIED AWAY A BIT... SEE WHAT NOT HAVING BANSHEE HAS DONE TO ME!!!!! Ha ha... I was just being silly, but yeah that would be sweet if it was connected in other ways!!!!

There's also a connection going on with the statue. Near the end of the first season of Banshee, there's a shot that shows a small statue that looks very similar to the one Mac gives to his wife in the pilot.
