The Official "Hannibal" Season 3 Thread

[FlyRy]

now that i think about it..you guys were right..from a BUSINESS standpoint..it was dumb as fukk to launch this against game 1 of the nba finals.. the highest rated in ABC history

dumb for a series that's always gotten low ratings..international deal be damned

 

[The Prince of All Saiyans]

Watch that shyt right now. The finale is a GOAT level episode.

Nobody gives this show a chance bc it's on nbc. I have told so many ppl at my job along with friends and to even get them to give it a chance took a lot of convincing on my part. Now all of them are in awe of it. Nbc simply doesn't have that cred anymore and needs to give Hannibal to a better respectable network.

You wouldn't want them to lose their TV-14 rating?


It's funny seeing the article that the ratings were so low. For a show with such low ratings, it seems to be all over the internet after this episode. E.g. if you google the old saying "is it that kind of party," nearly ALL the hits for page after page are about the episode two days ago.

Speaking of which, this recap I found on Google was pretty good:

It helped me understand some of the things about the episode that weren't clear at first:



Edit:
This maybe wishful thinking, but I expect the ratings to improve massively once the DVR numbers are factored in. I expect there's a pretty big overlap between the NBA Finals viewship and Hannibal (I'm sure most of us in this thread watching the Finals live and watching Hannibal later).

I didn't . Hannibal In the paint >>>> Bron

Nbc simply doesn't have that cred anymore.

That's exactly why I doubt NBC will ever cancel or give up this show. It legitimizes them. It doesn't matter if 5 people are watching it, critics put the finale last year up against anything on any network, basic or cable, and most of the time it came out on top. I doubt "Hannibal" will ever get award show recognition due to it's content but critics fukking love it. So do creative types like writers and directors.

If you factor in the deal NBC has with Gaumont, they have no reason to ever let "Hannibal" go.

I was joking because the episode was so odd.

At this point I think Hannibal is my current pick for the best show on TV. Last year while True Detective was on I might have said that was better, but looking back at both shows last season of Hannibal was better.
If I can think of a flaw, its that the show can get really disgusting, but its rarely "scary".

 

[AkaDemiK]

who would have thought NBC would have one of the top 10 shows of this new tv generation?

Im gonna disagree. I think the only reason it hasnt been cancelled is the production deal they have.

The show has poor ratings and isnt being nominated let alone winning awards.

Shows arent being saved by getting good reviews online. They want awards or ratings. Studios aint gonna print seasons 2's rotten tomatoes score and frame it on a wall.

There seemed to be a lot of talk in the past about another network or cable channel picking this up if NBC pulls the plug. Hopefully that's still the case. Not sure exactly how Neilson calculates these ratings but I feel like the show has to have a higher audience than that

who in their right mind put this on with the finals

didn't even get a chance to build up, then make you choose... nope... just started right off the bat with challenging the the nba fukking finals game 1 with lebron fukking james playing

 

[Dirty Mcdrawz]

Jesus Christ the cinematography in this show is on fukking point. It's a damn shame this show hasn't won any kind of a award yet.
