I'm assuming you're referring to the guy freeing himself from the stitching?
I'm still pleasantly surprised by how amazing of the performance Mads does week in and week out as Lector. Hard to compare with Hopkins, but I think I'm starting to enjoy Mads portrayal most of all out of the actors who have played Hannibal. By the way, how does Gillian Anderson just get hotter as she's gotten older? I never found her "attractive" in her X-files days- not that she was ugly though. Love her character on the show, and I hope her role on the show is expanded this season, but I don't know if that happens now that she's abandoned her place to go into hiding from Hannibal. I have no idea how after the opening scene from episode 1 of this season that Jack Crawford will remain alive and Hannibal not be busted? Makes me think Hannibal will either be on the run and Will be leading the "manhunt" to capture Hannibal, or they're going to deviate quite a bit from the Hannibal lore and actually kill off Crawford? Either way, still loving the show, but hate that they changed it to Fridays. It was a great way to cap off Thursday nights, IMO.

Show has kinda gone downhill lately. Not sure how I feel about Will's transformation. It appears Will is trying to entrap Hannibal, but I'm sure Hannibal will end up still with the upper hand. Not quite sure how this dark Will who enjoyed killing someone, even if it was "self-defense", will become the Will from the Red Dragon books.
Spoiler!

I think the 2nd half of season 2 has been fantastic. Huff coming in to play the violent nutso brother to Will's latest hookup has been a great addition by a top notch actor.

Oh and fyi, the show's creator, who also created Pushing Daisies, already has the entire series mapped out in fitting into the lead up right around where Red Dragon picks up. Thought it out going into the 1st season, and said it would be a 5 season, 6 at most storyline.
I'll be pissed if they don't get renewed for the entire 5 or 6 season run. Thankfully, Sony, who actually owns and produces the show, is very high on it, and feels even without NBC, they'd have a new home very quickly if the peacock didn't renew it. It also does get good ratings outside of the US, and it's Friday night timeslot is a ratings deadzone for any show so it's hardly just Hannibal to blame.

It'll go to somewhere like netflix if it doesn't make it on NBC after next year. It's enough of a cult favorite at this point.

My only criticism are the all too common gruesome murder scenes; people woven into trees or saber toothed tigers, or dozens of bodies used to make 'art' in a grain silo...the forensic investigators simply snap on rubber gloves, sigh and make snappy comments before digging in. Ho-hum...
Still, the characters on this show are extremely entertaining and Mikkelsen crushes it week in/out. |

The grain silo was the last episode I watched (have the rest on DVR...) but damn watching that guy pull himself off made me cringe.

Yep, enough new media outlets starving for new original content, and Sony is behind the show no matter the ratings because it's got lots of critical acclaim.
They stuck with Breaking Bad when it had ratings low enough to easily justify canceling it.

It doesn't bother me for some reason even though I know the times I've been around surgery live I quickly realized I wouldn't be taking up as a doctor like most of my immediate and extended family has, but there are definitely numerous times I'm a bit surprised it is actually on network television.
