a la Rappacini's Daughter?
Procedurals 1: Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You.
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
Hannibal: Fuller really is pure evil. They hinted last night that the others are all dead, but I don't really believe it until we actually see something back at the FBI.
Holy shit, SHOW. How many times can the same person's death come as a complete and shattering surprise?
I wasn't surprised by it. I noticed early she wasn't interacting with anyone else, and the feeling of this season is so trippy and surreal that I'm not really trusting anything that is being shown. Is it wrong that this season is making me want to go to Italy?
I fell right into it, and then I was sobbing and shouting at my laptop in tearful fury.
eta: And then, holy everything, that broken ghastly FrankenWendigo. That's an image from which nightmares run screaming.
Yes, that was one of the freakiest things I've ever seen. I'm continually shocked at what Fuller is able to get away with on network television.
That was creepier than most of the things I've seen in R-rated horror movies!
I saw Hugh Dancy on a talk show the other night and he said that Standards & Practices objected to seeing the butt cracks of two victims who were posed nude in a kneeling prayer position with angel wings flayed out of the skin of their backs. The solution? Douse them in more blood.
The FrankenWendigo/Dire Ravenstag made me sad. It was extremely creepy (yay!), but I was so fond of Dire Ravenstag!
I am torn on the episode. It was gorgeous, and dammit, Abigail, the poor girl. But the ep felt like there was not enough story. Or the story that was there was oddly paced.
Also, I really want to see Price & Zeller investigating Hannibal's murder basement. I want to see Freddie's writeup.
How many times can the same person's death come as a complete and shattering surprise?
I suddenly want to tweet to Fuller, "OMG, you killed Abigail! You bastard."
Are we going to discuss the "I forgive you"? That was a holy shit moment for me.
This series is like a painting. And filmed and framed as such. There's plot dev and such, but to me, so much secondary to the details that you get looking at the final result. Even if you don't know what it is yet.
