Do I need to give this another try? I watched the first two episodes of season 1 and it did not grab me. Convince me, brehs :lupe:

rumor has it season 2 is amazing, and season one picks up towards the end...im gonna try this show soon.....

As far as the question in the thread title, I doubt it but stranger things have happened. Let's put it like this, I was :ld: the first few eps of season 1, and the season 2 finale "Mizumono" was my #1 episode of 2014. The quality ramps up a lot between the first and second halves of the first season, and the 2nd season is even better. That finale is seriously a GOAT level episode, regardless of how you feel about the rest of the series.

I heard hannibal does some twisted shyt on this show. A little TOO twisted:dahell:

The answer to this question is ABSOLUTELY.

it's potential is already there for its first two seasons. Now it's all about how it handles the material it's about to reach where audiences know what's about to come and how well they re create red dragon, silence of the lambs and Hannibal stories.

This just shows me that network Tv can get away with a lot more then they do when they get that late night spot. I don't know why more shows on network don't show more graphic stuff and push the boundaries more.

To answer the OP....probably not, simply because it is not an original story and thus lacks tension with the main characters and plot

But the acting and production of this show is on par with those classics
Well Bryan fuller has made a lot of changes to established Hannibal cannon and So a lot of the stuff with will is uncharted

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
season 2 was pure piff:ohlawd:
no... it's too high brow and graphic


from an idiot standpoint... the shows that have the deep dialogue, detailed story, and things you have to see in the acting, NEVER get the ratings / awards / big fan base


even tho you put the wire up there... shyt was almost cancelled every single season cause nobody was watching it.


my mom loves hannibal the story... told her to get in on it... we see eye to eye on 99% of movies/shows and our tastes are impeccible... she couldn't get through it... too much gore.. and this was season 1... it only gets worse




so will it be a better show technically? i'd say it's already in line to beat every single one you named... put up the first TWO seasons only and lets talk


but if you think it's gonna worm it's way into cult status and make billions... not gonna happen..

This. I think the show is brilliant but my mom can't stomach the violence. Also you gotta really pay attention, so many little details that end up being important if you miss it.

Pretty much my thoughts. Season 2 finale was incredible, on an epic level, and I say watching the series just to get to that point is absolutely recommended. First half of season 1 was hit or miss, but the show took off in the second half of Season 2 and hasn't looked back.
