Sincere question: What is it that interests you about this season?

So it's not just me who feels like half of the dialogue was blatant exposition of plot, delivered unconvincingly. The bits that weren't expository didn't even sound like how humans talk, with the exception of "blue balls of the heart," which sounds like something a Vince Vaughn fan would say. The people still quoting

May I watch neither? I await your instructions.

Yeah, some of us were disappointed in season 1 and find season 2 to be even more disappointing.

I think I'm going with this suggestion, guys.

Your experience with the first season seems to line up with mine. I did love some of the moments of levity with Fet but found most of the horror dull. I do love me some monsters, though, so I'll probably tune in to see if there's more variety this season. (I really need to get around to Penny Dreadful.) There's also

Then that's definitely where they'll find it. Awesome little book store full of old and antique books, maps, illustrations, and other tchotchkes. The building is over 100 years old and the wooden floors sag under your feet as though they can't support the piles of leather-bound books. I actually met one of the

Does the exterminator get a lot of screen time? I'm pretty sure he was the only reason I watched the first season.

It's gotta be a record. He has this, two shows on HBO, and the most viewed series on network television.

BADBADNOTGOOD are pretty goodgood.

We're saving them for the Olympics.

Throw in some BADBADNOTGOOD feat. Ghostface to appease the advertisers and thousands of global viewers. I know Ghostface isn't Canadian but the performance doesn't need to be entirely Canadian.

I'm fairly confident that there wouldn't have been a backlash if Drake was headlining. Kanye could have even opened for Drake.

A few years ago I lost 110 pounds over the course of 14 months.

I'd like to sincerely thank you for this comment, I would have missed this episode otherwise.

My heart goes out to you and I wish you a speedy 48 hours. If it's any consolation, I just finished watching the episode (it's still airing Thursdays in Canada) but only have one IRL friend that watches Hannibal, so having to wait two days for the AV Club review/comments is going to be at least 10% as excruciating for

NBC moved it to Saturday.
