Bare in mind this is Amish country so there is no shortage of barns.

I feel like a fossil asking this but do raves still happen? Maybe in Amish country? Anyway, we get to meet Hanson, who naturally works for Proctor and is looking for a suitable barn for the rave. And Deva has a big role in this episode that revolves around a “rave” in a barn. Deva Hopewell (Ryann Shane) is presumably the love child of Carrie and Lucas but everything is so damn muddled that I am ready to throw a shoe at the TV. Rabbit.” The problem is we do not know if the stash is hidden or what the real play here is, criminally speaking. I think he went to jail for Carrie, while she got away with the $10 million worth of diamonds they stole from the yet to be seen “Mr. At barely a buck and a half, the guy steals every scene he is in.Īs we saw in the pilot, Lucas specifically returned to Banshee to reunite with his lost love Carrie. The guy reminds me of a modern day mash-up of Daniel Day-Lewis’ Bill the Butcher and Daniel Plainview. Fortunately the latter is available with Ulrich Thomsen’s chilling portrayal of small town kingpin Kai Proctor. The one staple you want in a new show is someone to root for or a bad guy you love to hate. Antony Starr as Hood just broods and never really shows any relatable quality. Do those crazy things that people in law enforcement do like, you know, not show up to work without your shirt tucked in and with a week of stubble on your face. You would think that, as a recently released con and impersonating a dead police officer that Hood would want to fly under the radar and at least pretend to be a Sheriff to gain some confidence amongst the townspeople while he runs his long con. For me the Amish peaked in modern entertainment with Harrison Ford’s 1985 flick Witness. I know, I know, the Amish do not exactly scream excitement.

Lucas is settling in as the Sheriff of the Anytown, USA town in Pennsylvania that skirts around the Amish country. Still it has 10 episodes so I will give it 10 epsiodes. No old CO’s calling in for recommendations or sending in maybe a picture from a precinct softball picnic. No one seems to have any questions about anything and just no real intel regarding where there new Sheriff is from except Oregon. Lucas Hood is now firmly in place as Sheriff of Banshee despite how difficult a feat this would be to pull off in the small town. The funny thing is that I have no idea why. Banshee chugs along and I am beginning to take a shine to it.
