Hannibal (Bryan Fuller/NBC, 2013)
 

couldn't find a thread for this.

i read about it here http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/new...ne-cook-403686
but i guess this is more helpful http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannibal_(TV_series)

kind of a weird combination considering Fuller's past shows have been more comedic, with of course undeniably dark undertones, but the fact that these are 13-ep seasons and he has a multi-season arc planned from the get-go, this is just too intriguing.

NBC will screw it up, though.

while i've seen Dead Like Me and Pushing Daisies, all i've seen of the Hannibal films is Silence of the Lambs. what do you guys think of this combination?

cautiously interested

Dead Like Me is one of my favorite shows of all time. I'm excited.

Interested, we'll see I suppose..

I love Fuller but ehhh.

Didn't Gillian Anderson join the cast?

Yep.

Bryan Fuller is the most innovative person in TV since Rod Serling, but I just don't really know what's left to say with this concept, especially as a semi-proceduralized cop show on a broadcast network. Will watch undoubtedly, but like others have said, a bit cautious; this could easily flop in more ways than bad ratings.

Is this series I read about a while back that is going to have the bad guy from Casino Royale play Hannibal? If so, then count me in.

I think this definitely has potential with Mads Mikkelsen portraying Hannibal. I'm just worried about editing. Strong graphic content is obviously drive this series, so I hope it works out alright.

Trailer if it hasn't already been posted:

I love Hugh Dancy. Hoping this works, but I highly doubt it. Not sure what's left to be said, as iconic is the character is.
