Now I know the premise is not very believable, but for entertainment value, it's a brilliant show and I reckon it has some of the best fight scenes recorded on any form of media
Television Banshee - Criminally underrated - best fight scenes
- Thread starter Glorio
- Start date
Couldn’t believe that was homelander when I watched it last year. Brilliant show. You know shit was going to be badass when that 2nd hand man took off his glasses. Criminally underrated is right.

Superb show, great fight scenes
What’s really criminal is that Tom Pelphery didn’t go on to bigger and better things after his turn as Kurt Bunker. Brilliant performance. And far too good to be wasted playing side kick to shitty iron fist actor.
One of the most entertaining series for sure. I guess it wasn't marketed that much or rather unsuccessfully when it came out, and will end up as a cult classic.
Probably a good thing it didn't last too long, kept it short and sweet. Terrific show, loved it from start to finish.
It was a pretty good show. And yes, it was a good thing that it didn't last.
Great show
Fabulous series. The finales were always a treat.
Stangely enough Hoon Lee is in an other serie, Warrior, that has pretty good cliffhangers.
Definitely! He wasn't bad in Iron Fist but he's good enough to be leading shows, not supporting actor roles.
Warrior is brilliant isn't it?
I think so but I could see people not liking the multiple storylines, it's one of these shows that is supposed to be slow and relatively long which isn't necessarily popular nowadays.

It was a great show. Just complete and utter nonsense but somehow kept it from going too far to the point you were hate watching it like I did other shows

Tried but just couldn't get into as the acting was just horrible.
Was same for Sons Of Anarchy. If the main stars cannot act I just can't get into a show

Great female talent too...

Its amazing how consistent this show is, every single episode is entertaining, not a bit of filler. Its just the right amount of ridiculous fun without ever going over the edge and losing the audience.
Easily one of my favourite shows ever. Had a banger of an opening theme as well.
Did I see due to fan support they’ve brought it back for a 3rd season. I actually love Warrior and not to put a dampen on Banshee but the fight scenes are not even close in quality in my opinion.
Although the hand split in Banshee is burned in to my memory.
It seems that fan support has led to its continuation, their decision was pretty strange when you consider the end of the second season. And yes the fight scenes are reminiscent of old hong kongese movies, it really looks like a Bruce Lee production.
