Banshee has grown into one of the most entertaining shows on television, a gloriously over-the-top example of pulp fiction strengthened by the support beams of solid characterization and inspired direction.

This series is very good at incorporating elements that force Hood to straddle the line between sheriff and criminal, and this one should be quite the challenge for him.

Cinemax's pulpy crime drama about a not-so-sleepy little Pennsylvania hamlet has convincingly grown into the show it wanted to be from the get-go: a violent, sex-filled drama whose edge is not dulled by its willingness to also be playful.

This latest episode of Banshee "A Fixer of Sorts" was beyond epic! It definitely took me some time to digest it all.

It's not all flash and gash: Banshee attends to the inner lives of its people. It grounds everything by doing this; even its most show-stopping setpieces reveal character.

I've seen six episodes, each of them offering me some kind of visual or stunt or other flourish that I hadn't seen in quite that way before, and bringing in more interesting actors and characters to play in this strange, fun, dangerous sandbox.

Banshee ... is fantastic in a couple of senses: It's really good, and sometimes almost unbelievable in its intensity.

With the world now totally Rabbit-free, and Carrie's secret out (for better or worse), the series feels likes it's truly being shared among all the players equally.
