If you thought Anthony Hopkins was creepy in the Hannibal movie series, Mads Mikkelsen will astound you as the iconic characters of Hannibal Lecter. This series is worth watching just for his unsettling and enthralling portrayal, but everything about Hannibal is incredible. The cinematography is so far above the standard of any show, you'll get chills. Throw in the incredible chemistry between Mads and Will Dancy (who portrays the main protagonist Will Graham), this will (hopefully) be a measure of prestige police procedurals for decades to come
