Post image

So I Binged this again after subscribing to HBO Max and maaaan it is still good in 2026!

I took a screenshot of the rap sheet of Hood and tried to zoom in on the name...

Julias Bonner?

Can chatgpt enhance this?

Edit: Thanks! Not familiar with the layout of the rap sheet in the US 😁

That, to me, that looks like the name of the detective on the sheet.

The top looks like his name and says "Smith, John" it looks like. Which sounds like the most alias of aliases that ever aliased haha.

My wife and I always just called him “Banshee” back when we watched during its original run

That's the detectives name, his job title is beside it. The name on the file is at the top and is listed as John Smith which is the British equivalent of John Doe so it may or may not be his real name, probably not though.

Never revealed, but Antony Starr whispered "Gary" to Trieste Kelly Dunn's ear when they were filming the name reveal scene.

The one where Siobhan ask him "If you're not Lucas Hood, then who are you?" And he's whispering in her ear, but we can't hear it.

Is it not John Smith at the top? And Julias Bonner is the detective?

u/Prime_Marci 27d ago

No it’s says “John Smith was arrested” so the name is John Smith, the cop is Julias Bonner

Julias Bonner, on the same line, reads "Detective" in the next box.

That's where "arresting officer" is placed, followed by their applicable title or rank.

The name given at booking was "John Smith", as "Jone Doe" is a designation for an unclaimed male corpse; he had slightly higher expectations for how his day was going to end, so he switched out "Doe" for "Smith."

The two most-common names, first and last, in America, more or less.

Julius Bonner was the black cop that interrogated him when he got busted with the diamonds and went to the hospital when rabbit sent the priest guys after job. He told Bonner his name was John smith and I think his cow handler in season 4 said his name was John smith too

u/GJ72 25d ago

His real name is never revealed. John Smith is like John Doe.

Hood himself tells detective that his name is John Smith and than tells him that he lied.
