    Never seen it. But, I might start because I heard it's amazing.... From Robin Quivers and Howard.

    Anyone been watching season 2? I've been very impressed by how much better the show is this season from season 1. There are a lot of layers to what is going on than one might think on a quick glance. It isn't just a show with fun action and regular sex/nudity. I highly recommend anyone that hasn't checked it out yet to give it a shot.

    It's a great show. No doubt about it. It draws you in and doesn't let you go.

    It's right up there with the best shows on TV imo.

    That Tranny Vietnamese guy might be my favorite character on the show. But yeah, this is one of best Tv series right now, very under the radar imo.

    Just finished the second season. I don't think there's a better show on TV, besides True Detective.

    I'm really enjoying The Knick right now too, but I agree that Banshee's quality went through the roof in season 2. I'm seriously stoked about getting to watch season 3. That and the new Strikeback season.

    Still haven't gotten to season 2 yet. There's like so many **** to watch. Just recently I was browsing to see if they had Trailer park Boys on netflix and they got freaking all 8 seasons of it!!!! 8 seasons, dude??? I won't ever be able to finish that. I'm trying to get to Sons Of Anarchy and that **** is also 8 seasons, fukk!!

    I should start diving into the Knick now, it's only up to 5 episodes. I think I can catch up with that consistently.

    You'll be happy you did. Soderbergh's tendency to have a score that is oddly anachronistic aside (it's all weird keyboard techno sounding stuff), the show is incredibly engaging.

    Bump.

    The best and most underrated show on television right now. Maybe Better Call Saul will be better, but Banshee is just greatness. How more people don't talk about this show is beyond me.

    If you can find me a better one, I'd like to know.

    I started watching it because of Lilli Simmons. Pretty good show.

    This show has been pretty intense this season. So violent and plenty of nudity. I literally do not know anyone else that watches it. Extremely underrated.

    One of those shows nobody is talking about, oh well more for us fans to enjoy.

    Yeah, Banshee is just behind Game of Thrones for my favorite show on TV at the moment. So great. Really looking forward to this next episode.

    This next episode is going to be so crazy. I have much anticipation and have no idea how the main characters are going to get through this one.
