I don't know if that would succeed though. This is a stomach-churning show- and I say that as a big fan (it would be my no. 1 show for 2013, period). Most people would not want to see this, it's too disturbing. Really, I'm amazed NBC put it on the air, and I don't envy them the task of promoting it. It's a cult show,…

Well I was going to give it a go over December, but bringing up recent Parks and Rec makes me want to stay far away from it. (I recently stopped watching Parks)

No, everyone knows Breaking Bad was great, blah blah blah, highlight some different shows.

I want to say I disagree strongly with you.

It was bad enough that Saul's wife's BF was a spy, I don't need more of that shit.

Yup…that scene in the woods in the S2 finale, :shudders:

Your analysis is probably correct, but the whole scene still reminded me again that there is no way she should be a CIA agent.

But Hannibal is going for something so different from Homeland. Hannibal very clearly takes place in a kind of nightmare-reality with its own dreamlike logic. Things like a totem pole of bodies don't make rational sense, but that's beside the point. Homeland likes to pretend it takes place in the real world
