That is a real subversion of the violence/sex allowability-on-tv problem in our culture.

On the whole I think GoT could do with being a little less linear in its storytelling. People keep saying "It's plodding because the books are plodding right now" but the job of a filmmaker is to do something imaginative with plodding material.

That makes sense.

This is the Hannibal version of "I earn thirty thousand dollars a month without leaving my bedroom" comments.

You knew Dimmond was dinner when he was slightly obnoxious in the bar when they met.

I'll admit that the gun puzzled me too. Not so much that she didn't shoot him but why she pointed a gun at him in the first place. Anyone who knows who Hannibal is knows you don't let him talk first if you intend to kill him. So she obviously had no intention of using the gun.

I would have bought that more easily, I think.

I had a momentary struggle with the concept of Hannibal on a motor bike, but then I just went with it. It was a relief to see him back in his suits so quickly though, I'll admit.

Will was hard for me to take in S1 too, but I like him just fine now.

I thought what made it ok was it suddenly becoming Bedelia's POV.

The soundtrack even more than the visuals is what makes me keep being startled when ad breaks happen. "This is network tv?"

Soundtrack amazing as ever.

This episode made this season of GoT seem really plodding.

So she can separate art from artist but we aren't allowed to? That is messed up.

Yeah, but what if it's the kind of thing you hear about happening and she got carried away and made it all sound more specific so that people would take it seriously? If she's not going to name names and she doesn't want people to talk about it why not assume it didn't really happen the way she told it at all? Why not…

"The word is that it's an open secret."
That is two layers of vagueness right there.

Looking at this season as a whole it feels like a collection of B-sides.

There's no way anyone could get close enough to a plane to shoot a bullet into it without being in the airport. Hartsfield is huge.

It was supposedly in Atlanta and Louis CK will believe anything stereotypical about the south. It's not true.

That line stuck out to me as unnecessary and made me realize that of course the whole situation is a projection of things Louis CK thinks about when he sits silently in the back of a car. "Do I seem like an asshole? I bet the other guys are nicer on the road than I am. I bet that guy is comparing me to Mark Maron…
