Two pretty good episodes so far BUT i hope it doesn't become a we catch a new wierd psychotic badguy every Episode while we set-up the overarching plot with Hannibal too much . Could get dull after a while.

so at what point (in terms of the books) does this series take place? Before Red Dragon or after Silence of the Lambs?

I don't know if Mads Mikkelsen is the right person for the role. He's too stereotypical creepy. It'll be really hard to relate him to Anthony Hopkin's Hannibal.

It takes place before Hannibal ever gains recognition as a serial killer, so before both.

It's set "before" Red Dragon. However, with everything being set ~30 years later, Crawford being black, Lounds being a woman and Will Graham being more eccentric than ever before, I think it's better to view it as a separate universe; this is Ultimate Hannibal.
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

Stammets was a nod to Tom Noonan, right? They look a lot alike and Stammets even wore the same glasses as I have seen Noonan wear. Also, and hold onto your hats, Tom Noonan played Francis Dollarhyde in the original movie about Hannibal Lecter, Manhunter.

Conclusion: Francis Dollarhyde aka Red Dragon will be the final enemy (not counting Mads, of course).

I preferred the second episode to the first, even though it was a very strong pilot. Hope they maintain or exceed this level, assuming it gets picked up for another season.

I've seen alot of US cop shows and they all have one thing in common.
The playing out of a scenario by a group of 3-5 people where they each take it in turns to talk.
Its so fucking annoying once you notice it.

This wouldn't appear to be the case with Hannibal, then.

Also, when Lecter brings Will breakfast and eats with Crawford, is the implication that he's feeding them human flesh?

Thats the thing with Lecter. You never know. Hes not eating human flesh every time he eats. But somehow it adds suspension to the scenerie. I like it.

It did happen when they were first analyzing the bodies in the lab.

And yes, it is implied, but not explicit at all.

I think it's suppose to be up in the air. I don't think it is human flesh; but similar to the opening of Dexter. That knowing he's a serial killer everything looks far more sinister; such as the sauce on the loin in episode 2.

As long as this show doesn't devolve into a daily routine of "bad-guy-of-the-day", I'm convinced the story will do well. Understandably, you can't stick with one serial killer for a whole season or two, and I'm all for variety, but if they just filter through serial killers like Scooby Doo does with monsters, it just gets formulaic and we don't get to see the interactions between Graham and Lecter as much, which is the whole basis of the story imo.

I dont think Will is convincingly autistic, at all. It seems more like an assertion than an actual aspect of his character, doubly so given they continuously hammer home his analytical skills are predicated on empathy. You mean that thing Autistics are suppose to be bad at? Yeahhh...

Otherwise I like the show and the characters, and I think this Hannibal fits the character far better than Anthony Hopkins ever did. The only downside is I find him a bit hard to understand at times. Oh well.

When he had meal with Crawford my immidiate thought was the annoying journalist he just had a creepy talk ended up on the plate.

That's what they were going for. English accent you can't put to a specific location. Seeing how Lecter is Lithuanian, most likely schooled in England and with lots of pretty obscure past it makes sense, although I agree that the way Mads is speaking seems a bit slurred, probably due to his "stiff upper lip" (which helps him play all those bad guys devoid of emotion, take Le Chiffre for example).
Time is precious. Waste it wisely.

I dont know Criminal Minds, but I guess its just a regular murder case every episode kind of show ? That is completely fine with me. But here we have a crazy criminal case every episode with multiple victims. I mean how many cases of serial killers there even have been in lets say the last 5 years in the US ?
I dont know for me it seems rly implausible.
I really really want to like this show, as I very much enjoyed all the Hannibal movies, but if this continues in this pace I´m gonna abondon it.

I don't think Will is supposed to be autistic, he just said that's what he's closest to when the chief asked him a question about his mind. I haven't read the books though, so someone please enlighten me if it is explicit that he is autistic in the books.

Also, yeah sometimes I don't understand what Mads says, but I don't really care cause he's Mads.
