1. A slap?

I'm watching "Banshee" and "Walking Dead."

Is it, like, a really hard slap?

2. ah no, it's a new tv series on NBC, and it pretty good.....

Just asking. It's so different from anything on network tv now..... some heavy hitters in the acting department also. Peter Sarsgaard, Zachary Quinto, Uma Thurman, Thandie Newton, Brian Cox, Melissa George.

3. The characters are really complicated people.

They are human, imperfect. It is amazing to see that after only one episode.

4. Thanks for the heads up

Didnt realize it had started! We play "catch up" on Sundays since I go to bed so early on weekdays. I want to see this!

5. Looks like network TV is finally getting it.....

limited series can work. The opening show was quite good with many plotlines among the characters to work with.

6. And as an update....complex family interactions in this baby.....

Very good I think. Anyone?

7. I agree- though I though the last episode aired was lacking in comparison

to the previous episodes
