Glad I've got someone to discuss it with

Quite surprised at the lack of interest TBH. I would have thought with Lecter being such a popular character more people would have sought it out?

How many episodes have there been? I can only find 1 right now??

Where are you chaps watching it?

Torrent? I wanted to watch it via Sky Living instead of torrenting but it's still "Coming Soon". Swines!

I enjoyed this first episode, hopefully it stays as interesting.

On its way.

I didn't think you were watching anyway?

[rsv gone!]

Second episode was good. Hannibal Lector is such a great character.

Oh, it was purely informative. I downloaded it, and then deleted immediately.

Mikkelsen is very good as Hannibal. I know many will disagree with me but he's better than the Welshman. Looking forward.

What happened to Mason Verger, as I remember he was a major character in the Hannibal novel?

[Patrick Bateman]

Wow, wow, wow. He's very good but Hopkins is unsurpassed.

I preferred the film, "Manhunter".

however, the series will be worth a look.

You're in luck. It is about Will Graham and Lector when they first met.

Watched Episode 2 at the weekend.

Still very much enjoying the relationship between
Lecter/Crawford/Graham but not impressed so far with the handling/writing of the secondary plot in each episode. Far too rushed and simplistic without any real insight and feels too much like filler so they can drag out the far more interesting key plot. Hope this improves as the series progresses otherwise it could spoil the show for me.

Is anyone still watching this. I only heard about it recently and have only watched the fist episode. Really liked it though so will give the others a try.

Yes...it's getting better but I'm percivering more out of OCD'ness than anything else. The episode have improved but it feels very disjointed.

Have watched the first 3 episodes so far and the fourth is on Sky in about 20 minutes.

You can catch up with all episodes to date on Sky Go through the website.

There are a few scenes that jar in each episode, but overall I think it's worth a watch and am definitely looking forward to the next episode.

Just watched the 9th episode and have to say the series gets better, although different to the original in many ways, plot aside.
