The way the killer of the week works. is if, the killer is remarkable and memorable. most villains dont have that "IT" effect some do... Some I be wanting to come back and are unceremoniously killed off....

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
I watch Hannibal but it will be canceled before its conclusion.
show runner already said he multiple networks ready to take over soon as they do... regular networks and cable

they actually retained ownership and all rights to the show, not nbc.. so any network can just buy it soon as they go off the air.. they've already had multiple offers after each season knowing the ratings :yeshrug:

Sidebar, Network TV looses when they go on those hiatus breaks in the middle of a season, instead of just airing every episode week-by-week like Cable TV:lupe:

:yeshrug: I see folks complain about this all the time, but I can't be the only person who watches so many shows that I embrace when shows go on Hiatus so I can take a breather.

i watch most things on hulu/amazon or on demand...so when i decide to get stuff not available a chance and watch live I'm almost shooting at 50% that it's a rerun.

That's what they all say. Few shows actually do.
