Hannibal

[CaptainWacky]

They've turned Hannibal Lecter into a tv show. At first you think "THEY'RE JUST COPYING DEXTER" but the trailer isn't awful at least.

But how long can this work as a regular tv show WHO KNOWS.

Cool, looks worth a ganders.

There could be a reality spinoff, THE REAL HELLS KITCHEN.

 

[CaptainWacky]

It's on network tv though so there probably won't be any wearing dead children as hats.

:mmph:

Coming next year: EVERYBODY LOVES MANSON.

Also weird that this series is executive produced by Bryan "Pushing Daisies" Fuller. EH FUDDLEMIFF.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Hmm?

 

[CaptainWacky]

I always associate you with Pushing Daisies because you cruelly hated it.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

I did. Hate it. But this looks pretty good. A bit like Dexter mixed with The Mentalist, maybe. Mars Mickelsthing has a perfectly odd face to play a serial killer.

 

[Seph]

I simply put hated dexter, was one of the worst shows I ever seen.

Looks an astounding cast. Laurence Fishburne has the most immense chin by the way.

Jimmy Hill had a decent pointy chin, but Fishburne has GIRTH, serious WIDTH.

"I can't believe they got Samuel L Jackson in this!" - any white viewer over fifty

PLEASE DON'T CANCEL THIS SHOW

And I know he's cooking human organs, but damned if all that food doesn't look delicious.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I watched the first episode it was good.

 

[Cassie]

I like it a lot so far. Mads is awesome.

 

[curiousa2z]

I love how the writers have him mix truth with lies, [possible] compassion with, well, crazy serial killerness. He is very well served in this role. Is Laurence Fishburn really fooled?

 

[curiousa2z]

it sure does! well at least we know what wine goes with leg....

 

[CaptainWacky]

One thiing I did think during the first episode was "wait, why doesn't Will realise Hannibal is a killer?" Because Will had shown superhuman ability to detect killers and Hannibal was being slightly obvious making him eat while they discussed a cannibal. But it wasn't a big deal and I'm prepared to accept that Hannibal can just mess with his head.

I merged the threads, and got rid of the posts that only talked about OMG THERES TWO THREADS.

Carry on!
