I actually think he wouldn't have eaten her. For one thing, too likely to get noticed. But for another… He actually seems to have a very strange sort of affection for her. Almost like how he behaves towards Will, except without the fact that his friend is hunting him to complicate things.

There's a spoilery official summary for 2x06 floating around that answers this question. Google around if you reeeeallllyyyyyyy want to know.

I've been so upset for the last 45 minutes that I'm only just now starting to parse this episode thematically and now that I'm working through it, that scene is even more beautiful. Beverly didn't try to lure, she tried to hunt and paid the price for it. Will won't make the same mistake.

One of the funny comic sans Hannibal comics that's made the rounds on tumblr is 3 frames of Will sitting in his prison cell looking upset and then the final one just says, "It fucking rhymes."

There's an official summary of episode 2x06 floating around that contains a surprisingly major spoiler for something that would've come from NBC. I, uh. I kind of think what Beverly saw pertains to that. I'll say it isn't Abigail.

I AM SO VERY NOT OKAY.

Chang has been perfect lately because he's been a joke machine and not a character with an arc. I don't expect everyone in a sitcom to be a well-rounded human with rational wants/needs/whatever, so that he's not that is fine. But given his psychological makeup the only possible way an arc with him can go is CHANG…

Freddie is in the promo pics released for ep 3, and she looks FABULOUS.

Stills for episode three that have been released show Freddie looking EXTREMELY FABULOUS in a cool outfit and hat so…. Next week! Ep 4 for Bella apparently according to Bryan's twitter.

Fuller said on twitter last night she'll appear in ep 4 (who knows past that).

Harmon is on some SXSW interview thing on youtube right now with the director and he just said that Chicken Noodle Dick isn't in the movie. :( :( :( :(

That reading of it didn't occur to me at all on first viewing, but I'll definitely be looking for this when I rewatch it some time this weekend.

I have no idea what I just watched, but I’m glad someone was crazy/stupid enough to air this on a major network.

I still sing the chicken noodle song to myself from time to time. Literally no one I know in real life would understand at all.

My recollection is he had a beard that made it less clear and we didn't get as good a look at him, but it's very definitely the same dude.

Yes. It's come up. Rust was talking to him outside the shut down Tuttle school that he later returns to. Marty interrupts his conversation because they get the info they need to put out an APB for LeDeoux. It's in episode 3.

It takes tumblr some time to recover by putting flower crowns on everything and making silly comic sans text comics out of the latest episode.

Actually as I was catching up on the show yesterday, after getting through that episode, I looked up some of the behind the scenes stuff on it: Apparently what it said on the page was just something like "and now we're close in with Cohle as…" and it was clear that the sequence was intended to be real time. However,…

My lovecraft joke aside: The fact that this was all written by just one dude is pretty incredible. Not even a writing staff, apparently. I can only imagine how closely his office must've resembled Cohle's storage space when he was in the thick of it.

It turns out the entire series has been a weird, arty crossbreed between Zodiac and Cabin In The Woods!
