From the picture I'm assuming this is another Odd Couple reboot?

I haven't listened to that one yet… brb downloading.

I'm happy to pay since I can't think of anything that's entertained me more than Earwolf over the past several years and I want those folks to succeed and be compensated for their talents, but I also dislike change so I'm outraged.

Also the one from a few weeks ago with the Irish muttering of "you fat cop… you fat fuckin cop" made me laugh so hard I cried.

And I for one love him for it!

Yeah, it seems like Will abandoned his "be standoffish with Hannibal" strategy rather quickly. From "let's keep this impersonal" to "I'm your fool" in a few conversations. Meanwhile Hannibal stares at the moon like he's not totally enthralled by everything that's happening.

The broadcast version ended abruptly too.

Molly is definitely too normal for this show, and presumably deserves to be with someone who never sailed across the Atlantic so he could make a firefly-man-corpse in the snail-filled basement of his ex's murder castle.

I read Red Dragon and Silence of the Lambs but I think the show is better than the source material, so I'm never really disappointed when they veer away from the canon. I just think maybe with Francis they're trusting the audience to fill in a few too many holes.

That's an interesting criticism that hadn't occurred to me (that we haven't really seen Dolarhyde be violent). I think you're right that it's contributing to the arc not 100% working for me, though I'm mostly enjoying it.

I want to say something insightful, but I'm becoming more incoherent with grief every week. When the Scotts interviewed U2 I thought, "You know, I love this podcast, but if this is the last episode, I'm okay with it." I am not okay with Hannibal ending and I'm just feeling very smite-y about it and would like to do

Well, since the show is this highly stylized allegorical thing, I really don't see any reason to view Hannibal and Will's relationship through the lens of realism. It's about being attracted to darkness and the allure of obsession, which are real things that can get real people into real trouble, so it can be lots of

Every moment in Some Like It Hot is funny and Jack Lemmon is a god. "Most of the time, I slap it!"

I don't remember that one, but I remember when the pressure cooker full of chili exploded and Sam came out all dazed and said "It was a accident," because my mom and I have been saying that ever since it first aired. It's an amazingly applicable line.

"He was a habitual line-stepper!"

I say we let woodchucks run things for a while. I always see them by the side of the highway - alive! They know something the other mostly dead highway animals don't know. I'm guessing that thing is "stay on the grassy part, morons." It just seems like maybe they'd do a good job.

A lot of thinking people really do enjoy that Jesus fella, you know.

Every second of old-timey baseball is hilarious. The woman in it, my god. "My father's passed."

I'm laughing like a loon at the memory of Elaine reading that line.

"I'll cut your face up so bad you'll have a chin. YOU'LL ALL HAVE CHINS!"
