I also need just to go on record here and say (1) the worst ten minutes of Hannibal display more tonal control and visual imagination than the best hour of almost any other drama you can name, even the great ones; and (2) it should have been nominated here; and (3) it doesn’t matter that it wasn’t nominated because 20 or 30 years down the road, young students of cinema and television will ask their elders if they watched Hannibal during its first run, and they’ll all lie and claim they watched every second, like people do today when young viewers ask about Twin Peaks.

Mads Mikkelsen plays the iconic role of Hannibal Lecter on NBC’s Hannibal with precision and depth. His acting has been emotional and believable, and for the second year in a row it will go unnoticed and uncelebrated.

So I was doing #HannibalEmmys on twitter (just to cheer everyone up since we didn’t get any noms :/) and I wasn’t expecting this but Lara Jean Chorostecki (Freddie) Aaron Abrams (Zeller) and Kacey Rohl (Abigail) all favored the tweets I tagged them in ^__^ so a pretty positive note today.
