Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaUnusual for a TV show, Banshee has a fitness department that provides the actors with personal trainers to get in shape for the physical demands of the show.
- GoofsThe USMC Marines from Camp Genoa are seen in town in their digital (deployment) uniforms. Marines cannot wear those off base other than being in actual field training or combat. For the bar and town scenes, they would be in some combination of the Alpha or Bravo uniform, the dress green blouse and trousers with the Khaki shirt and tie. Or at more formal events, in their blues.
- Quotes
Sugar Bates: [looking at three dead bodies, & a recently released ex-convict, in his bar] It's what you call in the bible "a clusterfuck of epic proportions"
- Crazy creditsDuring the first season, the opening credits show a safe being unlocked. The numbers shown are 42-15-68, and these numbers have meaning. 42 is the amount of deaths that occur during the first season, 15 is the number of years Hood spent in prison, and 68 is a reference to Revelations 6:8 which was spoken by Kai Proctor in episode 1.7, 'Behold a Pale Rider'.

What a great show to watch
Has it all
Job was a great character and scene stealer
Was good that they limited it to just 4 seasons rather than try and endlessly put bad seasons in.
