"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

That beatdown Jack administered to Hannibal was a thing of beauty.

Normally I'd be all for looking at Hugh Dancy's pretty, pretty torso, but shouldn't Will have a stoma somewhere on his abdomen and a colostomy bag? As I recall, Hannibal nearly disemboweled him at the end of Season 2. I'm thinking hopping down from the top bunk wouldn't be that easy for him, to say nothing of being pushed off a moving train.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

That beatdown Jack administered to Hannibal was a thing of beauty.

That was just... holy fuck, this show. From the moment Pazzi's cell phone rang until the end credits. I don't even have any words, just helpless hand-flapping. I may have to force Hec to binge-watch the entire run of the series just to get him to that scene.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I laughed and laughed when Will got pushed off the train.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I have to say I was disappointed with the Pazzi scene. It was a little too close to the book, and I thought the film version was better.

My main reaction to the Pazzi scene was that Hannibal must be going a little stir-crazy, because there was no way he was going to be able to clean prints off of everything wrapped around Pazzi. But then that's not an issue, because Jack showed up!

Bedelia is going to be annoyed at having to pack and move.

Hannibal: I'm just not buying that that is the manner of death Hannibal would choose for Will. In the books it is used as a humiliating end for a character Hannibal despised. It doesn't work for me.

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

"Hannibal, you may make a meal of me yet. But not today." Daaaamn, Bedelia.

Hannibal is being moved to Saturdays for the remainder of the season link. I'm not sure if that is starting this week or next.

My reaction to the latest Rizzoli & Isles: Tim Minear must have collaborated on this episode - probably in between updating his old Buffy scripts.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm disappointed that that was the character they chose to kill off. I liked her. But I was pleased that it tied back into the art episode because I thought that episode ended very weirdly and didn't think the story was done.
