It hurts, but I know it's the right move. So we made the gut-wrenching decision to end our run rather than risk a sub par season 5. We have a very passionate fan base, and if we handed them a contrived season 5, they would feel it. I felt pressure to come up with a 5th season, but to me there is nothing more disappointing than a show that doesn't know when it's over. Yesterday, Banshee co-creator Jonathan Tropper shared his perspective on Twitter:Īs we planned out season 4 of Banshee in the writers room, it became increasingly clear to me that the story was reaching its natural end. We all made the decision at the end of season 3 that we were going to make season 4 our grand finale.” The premise was never meant to survive a long stretch.
As Cinemax’s highest-rated show, no one was looking to cancel us. The first season is available for purchase on DVD or Blu-Ray at, or can be purchased for download via Amazon Instant Video. The second season begins January 10, 2014.
Some see this as a cancellation but the series is ending on its own terms, no because Cinemax cancelled it.Ī source tells HitFix, “We have not been canceled, but on the creative side, we have decided to end the show, basically because we were done telling the story. 'Banshee' airs on the American cable channel Cinemax at 10pm Fridays. I loved following Hood and Carrie adventures in Banshee for four years, there were so. Banshee was an unique show on TV, it’s probably one of the best show of this decade, and one of the most underrated.
It was recently revealed that Banshee will be ending with the upcoming fourth season. I’m a little sad because I'll obviously miss it, but I’m so satisfied with the way the show ended, I’m mostly happy.
