This "Prequel" to Silence of The Lambs got off to an okay start, but quickly revealed itself to be nothing but bad, formulaic dialog and excessive gore.

The series steals line after line after line of comments made in the movies that supposedly follow years after the series took place.

And the show has the police acting like the most horrendous crimes of murder and dismemberment happen every week.

If there was a real life Chesapeake Ripper like in the series, on the loose and killing for so long, the entire region would be living in terror just like Atlanta when Wayne Williams was killing all those kids. Yet this is not depicted in the show.

Hannibal has deeply disappointed me.
