I watched it. It was pretty good. I'm sure it will get better. A lot of setup in last night's episode. It kept me intrigued. I'll be sticking with it.

Only 8 episodes, so I will definitely watch all 8 this season. Then I will decide if I like it. I cant imagine McConauhey and Harrelson failing together...but then again, I thought Luck would be a great show with Hoffman lol

Yeah. As Laley said, can't imagine those two failing together.

I watched half of the first episode of season 1 last year and was bored. Does it get better?

I was at a friend's last night and he got me into Banshee. We watched the finale of season 1 and first episode of season 2 and I'm hooked now. I'll have to watch the rest of season 1 to get the full vibe of things (he explained the main plot, but I was definitely slow on the uptake with "who's that guy" and "what does he/she...or he-she in Job's case...have to do with the story" kinds of things).

Just a great combination of brazen over-the-topness and suspense in the "how the fuck is he going to keep pulling this shit off?" way.

Banshee is a good show. The Amish chick is fucking smoking hot. Hope she gets naked again this season a few times.

The best complement I can gave what I saw was that in the Season 2 opener, that FBI agent who came to put a final end to Rabbit and interrogate people totally reminded me of Twin Peaks at its peak. That combination of relentless and a bit terrifying along with quirky and weird always works great to grab my interest.

Dexter is pissing me off, b/c there are so many parts that don't make sense. For example, in the season 1 finale... his brother is a wanted man, and the cops just got done sweeping/investigating his house. That very same day (or the day after), he is on the run. Don't you think the cops would surveillance the house, to see if he would go back there? Instead, that's where Dexter goes to kill him. Derp.

A TON of the show doesn't make sense.
