Here is the first step in my Banshee Recovery Program. Yep, welcome to my therapy. This is my review of the series finale, 4x08 'Requiem'.

I wasn't really sure what I was expecting from the finale. The fourth season had been a little odd, with the focus on the, hate to say it, clichéd and kinda boring serial killer Satanists (more on that in another therapy session). With Satan McHornFace out of the way, I was hopeful that our last 小时 in Banshee would focus on our beloved crew of misfits, and on that front, the finale pretty much delivered.

I loved the opening of the episode. A horde of Nazis...

As 更多 post-Banshee therapy, I slapped together a 列表 of my 10 favourite Banshee preciouses. I hope 你 enjoy my fangirling/tears.


10. Angry Ant Jim Racine

He was a bit of a shit, but I really enjoyed Jim Racine's angry, 苦 little mission to fuck things up. And his death was epic. I wish he'd had a little 更多 screentime to poke at 兜帽, 罩, 发动机罩 a little while longer.


9. Job's BFF Sugar Bates

Sugar is awesome. I 爱情 how he took in and supported 兜帽, 罩, 发动机罩 right from the start. Sugar is obviously an excellent judge of character, and knows that while people like 兜帽, 罩, 发动机罩 and Job are violent and......

On June 3, 2016, 'Banshee' co-creator Jonathan Tropper answered a bunch of Fanshee 问题 (see link!). His 答案 offered up some confirmations of assumed information, and some new information about characters and events in the series. Here I break some of it down, because I have feels.

I shall begin with...

Schrödinger's Kai

A couple of Fanshees asked Tropper about Kai's final scene of the series:

Q: Was Proctor's final scene meant to be ambiguous?

A: No. It was meant to be 更多 like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. 你 know he gets killed, but we don’t want to 显示 it.

Tropper also commented...

I realised as I was 写作 my series finale review that I had spent a shitload of time and words talking myself through the 伯顿 death, so I decided to lift the bulk of that out of my original review and have a dedicated 伯顿 death therapy session. Coz I am a totally normal person.

So it was ever-so-unsurprisingly revealed that Satan McHornFace was NOT Rebecca's killer. Cue my anxiety! I'd read 粉丝 theories about 伯顿 being the killer and it made sense and I was ok with it. The Rebecca-Burton rivalry had been set up long ago, and having it be a central storyline in the end was pretty...
