Banshee : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2017109/?ref_=sr_1
I have recently finished watching Banshee, and was really quite impressed. It is aired on cinemax (skin-e-max) from the creaters that bought us True Blood. Without telling too much or spoiling it for anyone it's about an ex-con who has just got out of prison after 15 years and takes the identity of a murdered sheriff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aYDopySWJQ - Here is the trailer which does a better job than me showing what the show has to offer.
I watched the 10, 50min episodes one after the other and was on the edge of my seat throughout. It has a good combination of action/drama/humour and some good plot twists. What could be seen as a negative about the show is that is does get a little far-fetched at times and it is a little unrealistic but that doesn't matter because the show doesn't take itself too seriously and just has fun with it. The acting is decent and the script is also well written.
The show also has a lot of explicit nudity so if you're a fan of gratuitous sex and violence, this is worth checking out. I'd give it a solid 9/10 due to it being highly entertaining.
Now i just have to patiently wait for the 2nd season due out in 2014.
Edit: Here is a torrent link i found if you're interested: http://proxykat.net/banshee-season-1-hdtv-t7561655.html
Although i would look for the 720p episodes for better quality.
