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.

On his first day of shooting, 'Antony Starr' was injured during his first fight scene for the series. According to series co-creator 'Jonathan Tropper', he had to get 13 stitches in his lip and the producers digitally removed some of the swelling on his lip in other episodes.

After three seasons of physically demanding fight scenes, Antony Starr asked the producers for fewer fight scenes in season four.

"Banshee" comes from the Gaelic 'bean sí' or 'bean sith' (washer woman of the barrows or burial mounds) who in Celtic mythology heralds the imminent death of a prominent family member.

Lucas Hood wears the same color scheme in his wardrobe throughout all four seasons in every episode, regardless if it's his sheriff's uniform or other wear: Navy blue, dark gray, and black.

Frankie Faison (Sugar) has a picture of his title fight next to his name.

Every episode in season 1 has a post-credits scene.

Season 4 will be its final season.

The first season of the show was shot out of order. The fourth episode was shot before the pilot episode.

Deputy Brock Lotus (Matt Servitto) was initially supposed to die at the end of the first season, but the writers and producer decided to keep him around, because they liked what Servitto brought to the character. The original plan was for Brock to find out about Lucas' secret, but then get killed in a shootout with the Ukrainian mob before he could tell anyone about it.

In the early years of the show the initial plan for the end of the series was to have Lucas die by sacrificing himself for his family. Only as the show evolved throughout the years, creator Jonathan Tropper decided not to kill off his main character at the end of the series, because he realized that Lucas Hood had never really lived and that it was a more fitting send-off for his character to leave Banshee with the promise of finding himself on the road.
