So they wrapped up the season.

Im a huge hannibal fan, I think his stand up is brilliant. But this show is so aimless and pointless and not that funny.

It has no direction at all. Its like he just goes out there and wings it. Show desperately needs a show runner to focus it.

The only good thing about it is flying lotus Djng and the musical guests.

I wouldnt care if this gets cancelled. But maybe theyll retool.

Agree with all of this. I gave it a season based on Hannibal being a funny guy and knowing that it can take time for a comedy central show to find it's groove (Larry Wilmore), but this show didn't end up delivering. There were a couple "funny enough" people on the street type skits and the music was good, but all in all it was a complete disappointment. They need to organize this mess into something cohesive or just go on and cancel.

I'm a huge fan of Hannibal but damn this show is terrible. I've sadly watched every episode and I can't get passed the fact that I haven't laughed at it. He's a naturally funny dude but this is just bad. Hopefully they regroup and work harder for the next season.

Hannibal's pilot before he did Why?.

:ld:

Slightly better than Why? but nothing I would have watched if it got picked up either.

Starting to think he should just stick to stand-up and bit-part roles on other people's shows. He's not cut out to be a "personality".
