I'll poke around their On Demand and see if I can find it. Anyway, yes I enjoyed the show (and the hunky blond lead). But it was sometimes (often) creepifying.

I liked it too, especially the leads.

Some of it was very much watch-from-the-hall material, but I've enjoyed the characters. And hunky blond lead spends a good deal of time having to wash up before putting on a clean shirt.

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

Finished Hannibal last night. It was radiant and horrifying, and among the many other things I want I now also want Rutina Wesley to be given all the roles in all the things, always.

And oh, Bedelia. You wouldn't mind being Bluebeard's last wife, and he did have a last wife but it wasn't you. Someone in the comment threads at Birth.Movies.Death (used to be Badass Digest) noted that Gillian Anderson had also recently played Miss Havisham, and there was a forlornly dreadful Havisham echo in that image of her sitting there, trembling and waiting for the host who would never arrive and the terrible feast that would never begin. (Which I know wasn't Fuller's original intent with that image, but it's such a great fan theory I can't let go of it, and he's even said that now that he's heard all the fan theories and fallen in love with so many of them that he kind of regrets having clarified his original intent in a post-finale interview; he feels he should've left it to anyone and everyone's interpretation.)

"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

I'm so glad Rutina got the chance to play a prominent character who was always understated and gentle—good example of her range when taken with the always-shrieking Tara on True Blood.

I'm afraid I can't subscribe to the theory of Bedelia cutting off her own leg, roasting it in a coal pit, and then hopping into the dining room carrying it on a tray that size for dinner guests who will never show. I think Hannibal has to be in the building, though given Will's spiteful glee at announcing meat is back on the menu I wouldn't rule out the possibility of him being the sous-chef who actually prepared the entree.

There were three place settings at the table. I am for the theory that Hannibal and Will had prepared that entree.
