The show's characters are based upon the book 'Red Dragon'.It is nicely crafted and all characters seems to add depth to the story. The plot revolves around an FBI criminal profiler who is gifted with an ability to look at a crime seen from the eyes of the killer, but this ability makes him vulnerable to horrifying hallucinations.On the other hand Dr.Hannibal Lector looks like a well groomed psychoanalyst who seems to understand Will's problem.

The cinematography is superb and the acting is good so I think all in all this seems to be the next big thing in the genre of Crime and Thrillers as far as TV shows are concerned.
