If you haven't seen Justified, you have to. If you like Banshee, it's pretty much guaranteed that you'll love Justified.
The shows feel like they're written by the same person, both have the same witty writing, brilliant acting and intricate story lines. Very relatable main characters that are heavily flawed, just like Hood or Carrie. Very memorable villains. And so much more.
Justified and Banshee will always be 2 of my top rated shows of all time.

Justifed is excellent. Some of the best dialogue and characters ever. Much like Deadwood which also featured Timothy Olyphant, even the drunken bums wax eloquently on Justified.

Orphan Black
The Man in the High Castle
Bosch
Legends
Not necessarily full of action and fight scenes but they really held my attention like Banshee.

Ray donovan is ok, but don't expect epic fight scenes like banshee. The first 2 seasons of strike back has very similar action and fights but after that it goes to crap when they change the actors.

Donovan's not about the action but drama and family dynamics.

Maybe Strike Back. Ray Donovan is really slow.
Metal forever.

I really enjoyed "JUSTIFIED". Granted, it does not compare to Banshee in the action department, but it does give one 5 seasons of enjoyment.
I'm in my second watching of Banshee right now, and like seeing things come together organically without the waiting. Will probably even give it another watching this winter.

Are you watching the new season of Power (on Starz)?

Good suggestions here, I absolutely 120% agree with Justified and came here to suggest that, Hats off to whoever mentioned the shield too.
One that wasn't mentioned which might be to your liking. It doesn't have the crazy fight scenes banshee had but it DOES have the raw emotional power Banshee had

You know it's good too when both America has remade it, and the UK is remaking it.
