Finally watching the first show, Gillian looks so loving old, it doesn't even look like her, is it her?? Is that intentional or did she age really, really badly?

e: First of this season

I think she has aged incredibly gracefully, actually.

:agreed:

She'd be more, let's say, radiant if she were playing a happier character. Acting detached and dreary as is needed here might be making her seem older.

Late to the party but the cancellation was no surprise. I take that back, it was a surprise that it didn't come a month later. It was obviously going to happen when they moved the show to a new night and the show runners responded with the two worst episodes for first time viewers.

Really hoping the show goes to Netflix and not Amazon.

The thing to remember about S&P is that they're not actually moral guardians clutching their pearls and going, "Won't someone think of the children!" even though that's how they're often thought of. Standards and practices exists to minimize the number of complaints the network gets so they don't get sponsors chased off or fined by the FTC. And of course, the view that people get of them is going to be entirely centered around the creative people reacting to their notes.

It still comes off as absurd. Counting the word crap in a show with all sorts of body horror like the X-files, no nipples or asscracks in Hannibal which has some of the most explicit, intimate invasions of the body and someone counting the mentions of "cat anus" in 30 Rock...makes you wonder who's making these complaints?

"My kid saw a boob last night during the brutal vivisection of a screaming human being, I'm very angry."
"Someone said crap in a terrfying cockroach invasion episode, I'm distressed"

In other S&P anecdotes, Trailer park boys was asked to reduce the number of "gently caress" or "fucker" utterances one season.. so they just replaced them with "cocksucker" which led to a lot of scenes where Bubbles talks about his kitties as cute lil cocksuckers.

I wonder what would happen if Hannibal or an other bad guy ever hurt one of Will's dogs... would that be a step too far?

Funny how these things go and how different countries/eras rate things.
I was raised without a TV until 9 then it was english TV during the holidays and french 90s TV the rest of the year which was pretty racy (They don't generally bump the age rating for nudity and the ratings system was out of date until a 2002 overhaul) so you'd have the cast of the new Crazy Horse act on sunday afternoon talk show: breasts out, chatting about their diet and fitness regimens!
Benny Hill at 6pm before the news.

Evening movies would have ratings according to violence and drugs mostly so it was pretty much random whether you'd get sex scenes in your -12 or -10 movie. No fun watching with parents!
The french certainly liked awkward sex scenes in their comedy flicks, even the family friendly ones! I watched a lot of foreign films too and it was surprising what rated as safe for my age versus what I found disturbing.
I remember being really upset at the kind of casual violence in stuff like that Chuck Norris Texas ranger show or the like: especially hits to the face because I'd seen my share of fights (real life, rugby and boxing) and people bleed like crazy from the mouth and nose! You get big ugly bruises but in these shows the character either goes out cold or shakes it off, no mark at all.

Then again I've got latin american friends who just go "Pff, yeah we'd seen it all by the age of ten!".

They still have a very odd certification system:
Mad Max Fury Road is rated U (with warning) France, UK 15, USA R.
Hannibal: TV-14 US, 18 UK, -16 France.
Scandal: -10 France, TV-14 US
Game of thrones: -12 France, 15 or 18 in the UK, TV-MA (17) in the US
Apparently 12 year olds are mentally ready for bloody fights, gold crowning, eye gouging and a whole lotta rape. ???

Apparently a promo was released that, in typical Fuller fashion, is spoiler-y and awesomely done.

http://www.spoilertv.com/2015/06/hannibal-season-3-new-very-spoilerly.html

It's amazing to me that we've only seen material from the first half of the season and that alone has been so great.

There have been so many rumors flying around about the show, it's insane. I did come across this interview with Fuller this evening, though: Bryan Fuller on Hannibal's Future.

It's a hilarious twist on this Chipotle ad which Fiona Apple recorded that song for, an ad bragging about how humane Chipotle is to livestock.

So, okay. Quick explanation of recent events..

One week ago, I sat down and popped the first disc of season one into my DVD-player. The next day, after work, I got season two. By yesterday, I had watched all that's out so far of season three. I am now fully caught up on this goddamn amazing loving show.

How did I not pick this up sooner?!

Agreed.

If only half of what's in that thing is 'real' ( though with this show, who the gently caress knows what qualifies as real anymore ), this is going to be absolutely and utterly amazing!

It's a really good trailer / gently caress you to Chipotle.

:worship: Bryan Fuller :worship:

Incidentally, I just watched his version of Carrie the other day. Had Gretchen Speck and Margo Verger in it, (and Claire from Lost makes a surprisingly good evil bitch cheerleader).

I quite liked it -- in some ways I prefer it to the other two versions out there, as it's got stronger character work. Can't hold a candle to the original's direction though. It's probably the closest thing to Hannibal that Bryan Fuller's otherwise done, but it's not _very_ similar. Recommended, though.

Not sure if it's a clever editing trick or not but it appears Jack has taken Clarice's spot in witnessing Will getting Ray Liotta'd, leaving one to assume that getting his throat slashed by a collaborating Hannibal and Will is not actually in the cards for him. Or they both happen, who knows.

Seems poor Pazzi will never escape his ancestral fate.

What are the odds all the poo poo that happens in that trailer happens tonight? Because if I remember right this same sort of thing happened last season and it looked like it was from the entire season but it all happened in the next episode.
