    So yeah basically a show based on the constant struggle between Hannibal Lecter and FBI agent Will Graham:
    http://www.slashfilm.com/hannibal-lecter-tv-show/
    written by Bryan Fuller (Heroes, Pushing Daisies) will be about the early days of Hannibal Lecter, the serial killer who became one of the world’s most famous film characters thanks to Anthony Hopkins’ portrayal in The Silence of the Lambs.
    All the press release offers as far as details is that the show will “center on Lecter’s early days, namely his time going head-to-head with FBI agent Will Graham.” So this is a drawn out cat and mouse procedural? Sounds like that’s the case, with the show taking place between the events of Hannibal Rising and Manhunter. Combining a universally-known character with the perennially popular crime procedural seems like such an obvious move I’m surprised it has taken this long to occur.
    So yeah, seems pretty good, Infact seems pretty freaking great and im surprised it took this damn long for something like this to happen.
    But whatever, lets hear the million posts consisting in complaints on Hannibal being milked or whatever, and not discuss the possibilities for awesome and the fact that NBC seemed to have liked the script so much that they skipped the pilot and straight ordered 13 episodes.

    Sooo a penny for your thoughts?

    Red dragon (the recent remake) was bleh sadly, I like it because of Norton and Hopkins mostly but it could have been better. But yeah i doubt NBC gets away with it, but who knows maybe they can work something out.
