Beats me. It wouldn't surprise me if everything blows up, given how fast this season has burned through plot. And after "Tribal," the Cadi has essentially ceased to be.

Hitchin' up the buggy, churnin' lots of butter.

No idea. I know that Yaitanes has talked about having a five-season plan for the show, and given the fact that Cinemax gave Strike Back the courtesy of knowing that this season will be their last, I can't imagine that they wouldn't extend Banshee the same courtesy.

It's been even better as time's gone on - more ambitious, more emotional, more fun.

Wow. That is a horrific error and I am ashamed of it. It has been fixed.

My theory on that is because Stowe's so crazy (and clearly up to no good) he wants to keep this as much in house as possible.

Agreed. I think most of the commentariat doesn't have Cinemax.

The actor's name is Tom Pelphrey: www.imdb.com/name/nm1670601/ He's been a regular on soap operas like Guiding Light and As The World Turns, and had guest turns on Black Box and The Following.

And he doesn't take them off until halfway through the fight! That's when you know shit is getting real.

"The promise of a new day is all the exhilaration I need."

How on earth could they cut that Bazooka Joe line? That's in the pantheon of Burns's greatest moments.

Interestingly, in the director's commentary track on the DVD, Josh Weinstein said that the script was very heavily rewritten in the writers' room - rare for a Swartzwelder script.

I haven't seen it myself since I don't have DirecTV, but the critics who have like Alan Sepinwall (http://www.hitfix.com/whats… and Kate Kulzick (http://www.avclub.com/revie… gave it positive reviews.

The Raid: Chayton.

I've noticed that too. I feel like I need to go back and figure out exactly which of his umpteen beatings did the trick.

I thought the exact same thing. My theory is at this point even though he doesn't like her and doesn't trust her, his loyalty to Proctor still wins out.

I'm willing to bet Chayton won't let him stay breathing for much longer.

This is officially my favorite recurring comment. I look forward to this as a continuing trend.

I feel like commenters tend to be more about sideboob than man-ass.

"Is it made here?"
"I should know that. I don't."
