I've really enjoyed the show Banshee to date & unlike some other shows it hasn't lost grip, edge or momentum, and I am glad to see Eliza will be there for S4.
I have enjoyed her acting in other shows, especially Tru Calling which had so much potential and to this day I can't see why it was cancelled. The same with Dollhouse, another great show with tons of talent.
Unlike others I wont care to speculate if Eliza will be showing skin in the upcoming production, but I would think that with Lilly Simmons performance in earlier episodes that should really be enough to satisfy even the most perverse of viewer.

I'm just seeing that also, but from reports back in July. Those said that there will at least be a 4th season. Is that still happening do you know or is it just kaput?
It was probably a too intelligent show for the average modern viewer. I think that's why most shows get cancelled and the ones with staying power require the IQ equivalent of a 3 year old. Ugh.

S4 has been shot and will premire in January. The creator of Banshee released a long press statement about how it was his choice to eb68nd the show. He felt that there was no need to keep going into a Season 5 without sacrificing the quality of the show, and I respect that. The same thing happened to my favorite show, Nikita, although Nikita finished with 73 episodes as opposed to Banshee's 38 (S4 will only be 8 episodes long).
But it will be great to see Eliza back on screen. -

Thank you. It is nice to know that at least (hopefully) there will be some satisfactory conclusion to the show rather than just leaving it hanging in space as happened with an older favorite of mine The Riches. I can respect decisions to end shows rather than run them into the ground, but I am always a bit saddened when good shows are ended that I feel have so much more to give such as Dollhouse and (of course) Firefly. Thanks for replying

IMDb says that Eliza is only in 1 episode of S4. That can't be rightcan it? I certainly hope it isn't. Can anyone confirm how many episodes Eliza is in or is it just a matter of waiting, watching, and learning?

That's pretty much what I'm seeing as well. Eliza apparently is only in the season opener. That's too bad. I guess I might have to break down and watch Tru Calling or Dollhouse again.

Well if that's is the case, I really hope they give her plenty of screen time to establish FBI Special Agent Veronica Dawson and develop in her interactions with the rest of the characters. But 45 minutes to do all that might be a tall order.

Awesome that she's in all 8 episodes of S4! Funnily enough I've just come here after watching a YT vid of Eliza being interviewed at NYCC2015 and she talks about "waking up in a dungeon in one episode" so I began to hope for more than a single appearance from herand now I don't have to hope so cheers for that! Much appreciated!

I'm hoping this series really goes out with a bang.
Nah, I don't think Eliza's going to show skin. She's too above that, whereas Lili simply doesn't seem to give a beep and wants to take what she can get in her 15 minutes.
