My ratings for Hannibal are after watching the first season. I know there are at least two more seasons for me to watch so I might change my ratings after watching those ones. But for now a six is fair enough for this series. It doesn't get more for now because I find one of the main characters a weak point in this show. Hugh Dancy as Will Graham is just annoying. Is it is character or his acting, or both? They should focus this show much more on Mads Mikkelsen (playing Dr.Hannibal Lecter). He acts brilliantly and his character should be the main character of the entire show. Laurence Fishburne is also good in his character. I was expecting much more from Hannibal. I thought we would see the life of Dr.Lecter known from The Silence of the Lambs. But it doesn't come even close to the suspense you had in that movie. And after watching the top show Dexter about serial killers I thought this would be the same. But you never get that same sensation of suspense. The only good thing are the creative murders the serial killers have in Hannibal. That keeps you interested but the story itself is sometimes a bit too slow. I had a couple of times where I missed a couple minutes because I fell asleep. That would never have happened with Dexter for example. Anyways, I will watch the next seasons in hope they get better, with more Hannibal Lecter and lesser Will Graham.

Edit: After watching season two my opinion certainly didn't get better. There is a lot of annoying stuff in this series. It's extremely slow, the music and sound effects are(the least you can say)hypnotizing and annoying and make you fall asleep every episode, the story is also far fetched without any suspense. I'm hesitating watching season three because I can't see any improvement with this show.

Edit 2: After watching the first episode of season three I just abandon. It makes no sense, it's extremely slow, and the hypnotizing sounds make me fight not to fall asleep. Too boring to continue watching this series while there are so much better ones.
