It's getting old because so many supposedly great writers still don't know how to write half the human race. Not necessarily lumping Bryan Fuller in there, but it gets annoying to have to watch so many shows and movies where the women are unrealistic stereotypes and/or one-dimensional objects to be killed whenever the

Katz was a woman in the books. Probably doesn't change your comment at all. Just thought I should mention.

I just rewatched it. Couldn't tell if the breathing was Bev's or someone else. When she said "oh my god" the breathing stopped, which suggests to me it was supposed to be Bev all along. But we will see!

One must admit that he is good at finding the game.

I love your comments as well! *the Space Jewess/Ice Cream Planet mutual appreciation society flies off on a rainbow to the stars*

You may be right about that. I haven't seen Dexter or House of Cards, so I have no idea. But the phrase "it must be too complicated for you" is kind of a condescending way to put it.

Any time. I'm just sad that our happy sparkly Hannibal commenting club has very suddenly become mean. I didn't come here to read personal attacks. I came for the witty repartee and objectification of Mads Mikkelson, damn it!

Since you feel you have to be snide, I will be too. To wit: Yep, that is exactly what I'm In Tech said.

I wanna see Barney, too! Really bad. He's great. But if they're going by the books, Barney didn't show up until a couple of years after Hannibal was already in prison.

Whoooooaaa unnecessarily personal. (And rude, shockingly rude.) I'm starting to feel the AV Club should institute Alan Sepinwall's "talk about the shows, not each other" rule.

Now I'm going to be seriously disappointed if there isn't a shrine to Will Graham down there. Made from bodies, of course.

"There's no reason women can't play a major part, exploring their
frustration with the status quo instead of disappearing into the
background as some pseudo-statement."

Always.

Sure, but Clarice went to Buffalo Bill's with no clue that he was a serial killer, while Bev went with a good idea that Hannibal was. Clarice tried to get to the phone to call for backup. Bev didn't. Clarice didn't break the law to get evidence that would presumably be inadmissible in court. She just walked into

Really don't mean to single you or this comment out, it's more for everyone. Hi, Internet. Can we please stop spreading this myth that every time someone points out a gender-related issue with a TV show, that person is just "looking to find something to complain about"? Why would anyone do that, especially here? We

Interesting! I too doubt that Hannibal just threw Miriam's body parts into the beer and left them there. My best guess is that, if he did anything, he separated out certain liquid parts of Miriam's blood and used them in the beer-making process. As the Reddit commenter said, he created a "liquid slurry," which is

Hey Steve! (i like saying that because homestar runner) I feel I should point out that a lot of your complaints could be turned around on you. You say, "Why complain? Stop watching the show!" But I can say, "Why complain? Stop reading the comments!" You can say, "You have a lot of replies here," and I can say, "Well,

You know what you made me just realize? Now that Bev's dead, we'll never get to see the Beverly/Alana best friendship that I wanted to happen. Boo. They would have been so great together. With Abigail and Bev gone, it's going to get harder and harder for the show to pass the Bechdel test.
