HANNIBAL on NBC seems amazing and therefore deserves it's own thread!

I'm think she's mason verger's sister

oh of course

can't wait for him to show up - michael pitt's playing him <3

~~ alanabial ~~

glad to see they retained mason verger's human tears martinis.

I wonder how far they're gonna go with Mason Verger. He's such a repugnant character in the book: woman beater, sadist, rapist, child molester. The worst. It'll be great to see him lose his face.

Count on them doing something even nastier.

:D

thankfully Fuller didn't go with the novel's version of Margot:

In the novel, she’s a very masculine character, who has had years of steroid abuse and is a lesbian, and it was unclear to me in the novel whether she was either transgender or a lesbian as a result of those horrible abuses and that horrible childhood and [Beat.] that’s not how transgenderism or homosexuality works. So I didn’t want to contribute to that misconception of what it is to be transgender or a gay woman.

Was there any reference to Chilton at all, this week? I'm kind of assuming he made it, but it really seemed like he was killed.

FISH

good to see jeremy davies is still cutting his own hair

there was a lot of nietzsche in this episode—early on, and in alanna's interview w/ the social worker (sociopaths 'keep us on our toes' is basically the explanation he floats for the value of murderous immorality to the human race in 'the gay science'), and in davies' sympathy for the horse

Aw we didn't get to see Will Graham kill the man in the prehistoric bear amour.

Just read on imdb that David Tennant auditioned for Lecter and was deemed excellent, but it didn't work out for some reason. Think I prefer it this way.

definitely

lol hannibal owns a theremin

i've enjoyed how ever since will told hannibal that he was finally interesting to him (as opposed to before when will had to fake it), everything hannibal has said in phony person-suit mode has been insufferably pseud-y

"button-stitching"

Oh man, Margot totally slept with Will so she could get pregnant and bear a legitimate male heir so she can kill her brother – that's pretty goddamn twisted. I love this show.

so will told freddie he would explain things but then we never heard the explanation? this show can be confusing sometimes

I think there's still the outside chance Will killed wildlife man in self-defense, stashed his organs to later serve up to Hannibal, and Freddie is hidden away somewhere. It's Will cat fishing Hannibal.

Oh man I hope so!!!!!

That's obviously what's happening.

"you slice the ginger"

when are will & hannibal just gonna bone down already jeeeeez

michael pitt's mason verger = <3

looool

was the burning wheelchair in 'red dragon' the book? or just the ratner adaptation

wouldn't it be awesome if they just played the Red Dragon story as a killer of the week and not something of major consequence?

this season is great! this show is great!

ok i checked and it is in the book. stoked for the dolarhyde madness. totally forgot that the garrett jacob hobbs stuff was from the book as well.

In the book, that's Freddie Lounds in the flaming wheelchair.

this season is great! this show is great!

lol ya the show makes it so overwhelming

probably the best tv romance since beecher & keller

I love that Mads is showing that Hannibal trusts Will more and more by looking like he's about to start cracking up laughing in nearly every scene.

x-post: I think that "who's bonin' who" double sex scene was intended to work on, oh, about 17 levels.

i lol'd when the adagietto from Mahler's 5th started playing during their dinner date at the end. super romantic.

Oh yeah. I think one of the reasons this show works so well is that it doesn't assume that it's smarter than its audience, but assumes that its audience is really really smart and looking for fun.

Renewed for a third season! Phew!

Yay!! Maybe they'll get to Silence after all.

they'll never get to silence, they don't have the rights

Crisis was just cancelled as part of NBC's annual bloodletting so Scully can come back to Hannibal

She's got Hannibal and The Fall. She didn't need that dumb Crisis show anyway.

well what are the chances she comes back on a plate anyway

That show needs to be careful not to let Hannibal eat all the women.

well assuming the season opener was not a tease for an event in a future season (lame), it seems like the state will be providing his meals pretty soon?

I really hope he isn't captured this season. Free Hannibal is a lot more interesting than caged Hannibal.
