Damn beat me to it.

Yeah, true. Jack's apparent motivations re: Will are the biggest contradictions of any of the character motives.

I laughed out loud at this. So true. Team Science does speak in crisper tones! Will and Hannibal seem to be mumblers by comparison.

Yeah, the complexities of Will are what I can see on paper and even sometimes on-screen. It's just - seriously - I don't know, a Hugh Dancy thing. He is disarmingly pretty Will. His character is a bit of a mumbler, an intellectual, complex, tends to over-empathize, etc… yet filled with suppressed violence. It's

Yeah, I watched the first two seasons in one sitting late last year.

That's the perfect amount of spoilerism! I don't mind it myself. (I do give warnings out of respect with stuff like GoT though, esp. on AV Club. It has to be specific warnings, too, like (in upper case): "Potential spoilers Book 4 and maybe 5 / Spoiler popular fan theory / confirmed fan theory? All books" before even

I remember getting one spam email that had mangled lines from Moby Dick at the bottom. I did get a facebook email last year, explaining that the death of a "Late Mr. Ron. D. Arundell" made me his sole beneficiary to the tune of $8.5 million. All I had to do was furnish my own email to one Michael Philip (ESQ) at his

I've kept myself deliberately vague about the source stuff (books) because it's been forever and I want to be a little "surprised", but I take it there may have been a sexual relationship between mother and son? If so, yeah, I can do without that.

"This comment was deleted."

I'm actually glad I read the books so long ago that I forgot this. I was flabbergasted in a supremely awesome way.

And vice versa, really. Hannibal is pretty to look at, but also violent, unstable, manipulative, withholding and his idea of gratitude is often… unique.

It's not Mad's accent I'm struggling with so much as some dialogue sounding almost blurred - in a way that reminds me of odd/poor acoustics. I sometimes also cannot understand what Will is saying, or any actor, depending on how it's shot/filmed (or perhaps the actors are murmuring rather than talking, e.g. during a

You're all blinded by him. You were observing, not participating.

Your boss Schrodinger's cat-ed you.

Hey, thanks! I'm also liking having an actual discussion… will be posting on the Hannibal forum regularly now! Oh God, bagging out the last season of Dexter was hilarious… I used to look forward to the latest episode so I could read and write about it afterwards. It was like a bitchy guilty pleasure.

I'm from Australia, I'm afraid! I did live in Vancouver for a couple of years and visited all over the US quite a few times, including California quite a few times (L.A. and San Diego mostly) and I loved it all and miss it.

First I found Marie amusing, then I found her disgusting, then I found her amusing again, then I marveled at her character and the writers' intelligence - because in the end one things become clear: Marie's particular brand of shallowness is her strength and what keeps her personality intact when everyone around her

Yes I noticed that comment! I also noticed quite a few of your one-liners (and two or three liners) that both made me literally laugh out loud and were ALSO relevant to the conversation on the board. I think the first one I read was, "What does she have to do, kill the Predator with her clit?" (Awesome.) You should

Yeah, I think that Jack only warned Alana once and only toward the end of their relationship (I could be wrong?). But I remember thinking that if Jack said something to me, I would listen. The actor has a commanding steadiness to him. Jack's faith in Will might be a bit of a stretch sometimes, but it's something I can

I think my perspective comes from someone who watches the show but doesn't remember these nuances well. Season 1 and 2 were impressive, but I watched them last year and can't remember specific character names etc.
