The Last Kingdom

Lucas Hood, an ex-con and master thief, assumes the identity of a murdered sheriff where he continues his criminal activities. His past seems to haunt him by those he betrayed years earlier. This ex-con imposes his own brand of justice where violence erupts at every turn in the not so quiet Amish town of Banshee, Pennsylvania. —megcak555

Trivia
Unusual for a TV show, Banshee has a fitness department that provides the actors with personal trainers to get in shape for the physical demands of the show.

Goofs
The USMC Marines from Camp Genoa are seen in town in their digital (deployment) uniforms. Marines cannot wear those off base other than being in actual field training or combat. For the bar and town scenes, they would be in some combination of the Alpha or Bravo uniform, the dress green blouse and trousers with the Khaki shirt and tie. Or at more formal events, in their blues.

Quotes
Sugar Bates: [looking at three dead bodies, & a recently released ex-convict, in his bar] It's what you call in the bible "a clusterfuck of epic proportions"

Crazy credits
During the first season, the opening credits show a safe being unlocked. The numbers shown are 42-15-68, and these numbers have meaning. 42 is the amount of deaths that occur during the first season, 15 is the number of years Hood spent in prison, and 68 is a reference to Revelations 6:8 which was spoken by Kai Proctor in episode 1.7, 'Behold a Pale Rider'.

Connections
Featured in 2013 Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards (2013)

Hidden gem

This show is the very definition of a hidden gem. Yes, it is sensational and and over the top. It is also bold, well written, multilayered, entertaining, well acted and satisfying. I highly recommend. Give this show a shot. It is one of the best kept secrets out there.
