Great show, I really enjoyed season 1 and 2. Hannibal is lightning in a bottle; so fun to watch, and such fun gory scenes, so well executed. In season 2 the show really hits it's stride with good complexity, good pacing, spectaciular gore, lots of Hannibal and lots of intrigue. I am not sure what happened, but the show falls off alot during season 3. The pacing goes, there are far too many long camera pans and slow, melodramatic conversations.. especially Gillian Andersons character and the Japanese character. The execution is much weaker, like they changed the editing or special effects team, and so is the gore. There is also much less of Hannibal. It wasn't awful, but was disappointing after 1 & 2. Definitely worth a watch.
