Dr. Lecter Invites you to Dinner. The ''Hannibal'' Thread - Part 2

[Matt]

Meh, unless the show runner has no common sense *cough cough Dan Harmon* they aren't going to call out an actor. Where there is smoke, there is usually fire and there is a lot of smoke throughout Pitt's career.

 

[Roose Bolton]

Or he just has a massive tobacco addiction.

What is Fuller really going to say?

"Oh yea, man, he sucks on set! Sheesh!"

 

[Tron Bonne]

What's all the smoke around Pitt's career?

 

[Maximus One]

He's just known as being very difficult to work with. Supposedly that's why he was killed off on boardwalk empire

 

[CrypticOne]

Re: rumors of Michael Pitt being difficult to work with:

Well that's good to hear. Can't wait to finally see him in action in this show. Seems like the perfect thing for him.

Another one!

Are we still super worried about this getting "cancelled"/dropped from NBC's lineup?

 

[Sawyer]

I don't know. Is this a day ending with a Y?

 

[slimshady247]

No.

I don't know if anyone is "super worried", but any fan of the show should at least be mildly concerned about the situation.

 

[slimshady247]

I feel like I'm going to have to be the one here that's going to irrationally cling to the idea that this show isn't ever going to get dropped.

 

[slimshady247]

That episode and the preview for next week.

 

[Bruce Banner]

I've been dreading the potential idea in my head for the past few months that [BLACKOUT]Will's dogs might get hurt[/BLACKOUT] I can't really blame him for his reaction.

 

[Nemi]

[BLACKOUT]The lesson here is to never ever screw with that mans dogs....

He had a shotgun and by the previews used his own bare hands instead. [/BLACKOUT]

 

[flickchick85]

I loved that Hannibal actually nodded at the end when Will suggested they were even, lol.

 

[Nemi]

What's a little attempted murder between friends?

 

[James]

I loved that Hannibal actually nodded at the end when Will suggested they were even, lol.

Yeah, I really liked that too.

This episode was great, the relationship between Will and Hannibal gets better and better. With the ending nod it seems like Hannibal has finally, in a subtle way, admitted to Will what he is.

I don't know, is there some issue you have with people talking about it? I think it's fine, since it's a part of the show, as long as no one over does it. And I seem to see just as many talking about the latest episode when it airs than that, so I don't really see the problem.

 

[The Shape]

Not sure how I feel about Will's newfound interest in murder. I wish it were just a ploy to make Hannibal think Will is coming over to the "dark side".

 

[Snow Queen]

Was I the only one who thought the episode kinda felt like [BLACKOUT]proto-The Silence of the Lambs?[/BLACKOUT]

 

[antsman41]

Will is totally messing with Hannibal, making him think he's turning him again.

Yeah, I don't see the issue with discussing it either. The fact is, this show is probably going to be on the bubble for as long as it is on the air. 2 million viewers isn't good enough for network TV. The show stays on the air (for now), despite that, because NBC is in such a wretched state. Eventually NBC is going to cut their losses and move on, because NBC will try something to save their brand. So yeah, this conversation is going to be tied to the show for the entirety of its run.

That said, Slim, your latest post almost seemed like you were trying to pick a fight over it when no one else was even talking about it.
