Hannibal (NBC) TV Show • Page 2

The rights going up for grabs this summer makes me feel pretty optimistic. That was a big issue going forward. You know, besides the fact that only dozens of us watched this show. But we are loyal dozens.

 

i would flip

 

Season 2 is one of the greatest things ever put on television.

 

Please, please let it happen !

 

I never did see season 3 of this show but I loved the first two. Thoughts on 3?

 

Fuller made a comment at some point about season three being like a pretentious art film, and at times I have to agree - I think that's partly why this show never got a 4th season - however, if you love the first two seasons you owe it to yourself to watch the third. I think it's pretty damn great.

 

The third season is so obviously the best season lol, cmon

 

I wasn't really invested in the Red Dragon arc but S3's first half was superb.

 

Season 2 was a 10 and Season 3 was an 11.

 

First half of season 3 has its moments but it's agonizingly slightly slow. Second half of the season is A+ tho

 

y'all forgetting the first half of season two? slowest portion of the series by far

 

not that a slow reveal is bad. fuller excels at it greatly. but if we're gonna talk about dragging, that's the portion that drags imo

 

I love the stuff with Michael Pitt so much in season 2, and the finale was just shocking and heartbreaking in all the right ways. It's hard for me to choose between 2 and 3 because 2 had such a profound effect on me in terms of what could actually be accomplished in network television with the right auteur and enough studio leeway. By the time season 3 came around I expected it to be amazing and it didn't disappoint. So I think I have to give "favorite" to 2 even though 3 is probably the "best," objectively.

That said, just for the amazing adaptation of the Italy section of Hannibal alone, season 3 is an all-time classic. The fact that they also blew Red Dragon out of the water was like icing on the cake.

 

First half of season 2>Back half of season 2

2>3>1

 

Season three dragged so much early on.

 

Season 3 works a lot better if you're binging. First three episodes are 2.5hrs of beautiful cinematography, but ep 4 kicks it into gear.

 

I started this today, and the first two episodes were great.

 

oh boy, what a treat

 

it gets so much better when it strays away from the "monster of the week" stuff too
not that it wasn't fantastic from the start
this show needs a rewatch

 

I figured as much from skimming the thread. Can't wait to see where it goes.

 

Complete series on blu-ray & digital HD for $28.45 on Amazon. It's a steal if you ask me.

 

Bryan Fuller Has Pitched ‘Hannibal’ Season 4 to Hugh Dancy and Mads Mikkelsen, and They’re ‘Keen On It’

 

Don't do this to me

 

Fuck this is gonna be the new Brand New LP5, isn't it.

 

HMMMMMMMMM
