The body not only had to be frozen, but also preserved somehow so that nothing was dripping. Hannibal would have to have one hell of a saw and many blades, plus an untraceable source for giant sheets of plexiglass.

All I know is that the show lost me when it went directly from "find the kidney, find the murderer" to Hannibal mincing meat.

Because books.

Much extra salty handwavium must be applied, it's true.

I ignore the giant plot holes, because I love watching Mads Mikkelson and Hugh Dancy (and everybody else, really) too much to give it up.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I started assuming last season that it was some kind of AU where people can travel ridiculous distances with no effort.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That's just TV, though. I mean... 24?

For me it's all about the visual style and the mix of dark humor with things that are deeply disturbing.

This. I mean, whatever else is going on, it's nightmarishly beautiful most of the time.

Yeah, NCIS NOLA was painful.

Yep. Not looking forward to part 2. Also, it'd be nice if the team wasn't overwhelmingly white. I was preparing to punch people in the crotch for introducing a black woman as an FBI agent only to kill her off until CCH Pounder showed up

Was Castle on last night?

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
