"lands on the Gotham City Police Department like a tornado"

Counterpoint: van Gogh barely made a dime off his paintings during his lifetime, as we all know. But he was paid millions in exposure units, which he then cashed in for a sweet, sweet payday when he died. The lesson: do what you're good at for free your entire life, and, odds are, someone else will end up profiting…

She wanted to cage him, though. And I'm hazy on the details, but she also went back on that tonight either in the conversation with Jack or the one on Will's porch with Hannibal.

What do they do with Chiyoh from here though? It seems like she's played her part, and I can't really think of how they would continue her arc with Hannibal incarcerated. Do they just absorb other characters from the books into Chiyoh's character? The only real plot point I can foresee making sense with Chiyoh is…

Well, that had the highest density of "OH FUCK OH FUCK OH FUCK OH FUCK" since the end of season 2. The way they handled the transition to Red Dragon was beautiful as well, making it Hannibal's desperation to keep Will in his life that did him in, rather than Will's own intuition. In either situation, it could've never…

They're putting up new episodes before NBC airs them now, so this is even more true than usual.

I don't care about Frank's motivation, the fact is that no VP would sacrifice name recognition on the national stage to work in state politics. Sure, LBJ thought about doing it, every VP resents their pointless position, but it's very ham-handed to just have this guy who's in Frank's way just disappear. There's a…

Uh, I seriously, seriously doubt that LBJ's Great Society was in any way supposed to eradicate unemployment. Why would he institute all those social safety nets if everyone was supposed to be gainfully employed? Sure, he may have been trying to reduce unemployment, but anyone with an ounce of political acumen knows…

The President of the United States has a plan to reduce unemployment to 0% throughout the country. That is, both politically and economically, a fucking terrible (and terribly stupid) idea. And it's what passes for political nuance on that show. Also, it's apparently completely feasible that the VPOTUS would…

I don't know why, but classifying "voicing a talking can of vegetables" as just "voice acting" seems like a massive undersell. Maybe it's just me.

I have no idea if this is a stupid question, so in the spirit of the Internet, I'll blindly plow ahead anyway: would crowdfunding do anything to help save the show? I know they just need distro rights, and money may not be the issue here, but it seems like Hannibal's fanbase would commit to it if it could actually…

I bought it on Amazon too, for that same purpose. So shines a goon's deed in a weary world…

There's also the real patriarch of the Latino vote, Mr. Ole' Savior (R) http://www.fec.gov/fecviewe…

And they do a good job there. It's just that this goddamn NETWORK show is somehow more nightmare-inducing than even the most despicable of all other media. I don't really have anything to add to your comment, I just think that's the perfect way to describe Hannibal to someone that hasn't seen the show, and yet is…

I love the idea of another Fallout game with Obsidian involved. I'm not a huge fan of the bicoastal thing that Bethesda keeps pushing, first with DC and now with Boston. There are still a ton of interesting places and themes these games could touch on in the West Coast, and I really enjoyed the direction the writing…

Wow. The first 4 results on Youtube for a "Crystal Pepsi" search were bros doing this exact thing. They go ahead and get the good part out of the way for the thumbnails, so it just looks like 4 bros puking shitty, old soft drinks onto each other's heads.

This is pretty great, but I'd rather see Alan and Robin Thicke. It would be a hilarious disaster.

*Hammacher Schlemmer waits for sponsorship deal with bated breath*

I really wish they would occasionally let the guests get in on the improv, if they so choose. Sheen would've been fantastic in that episode, so I feel that we kinda missed out there. That said, Chris Tallman has a been a revelation for me; his turn as Maestro Nick Nolte in the Student Lounge ep was some of the…

This might have been mentioned elsewhere in the comments, but IIRC, the dialogue between Bedelia and Hannibal during that scene was a callback to the dialogue between Hannibal and Abigail in S1, when Abigail stabbed that guy (the brother of one of Hannibal's victims) and Hannibal offered to help her with the body.
