If you'd have told me that the TV series of Hannibal was going to be this good I'd have simply not believed you. The movies were not even that great, though plenty would probably disagree with me.

Yet, the series not only introduces a total new take on Hannibal Lecture (I mean new compared to the films not the novel which I haven't read) but completely erases any memory of the Anthony Hopkins portrayal.

I felt I could have watched Hannibal indefinitely, the flow was so hypnotic and the characters so well portrayed and the concepts touched upon with such respect it was a blessing to experience.

Every series was enjoyable to the point of re-watching, and the themes and philosophical musings (captured so well by the production and actors) felt not only like high brow entertainment but deeply personal on every level.

Loved it
