rogueslayer452NBC cancels Hannibal.
But fear not, since there's been talk about others wanting to partner with the show and find them a new home if and when the day came that NBC decided to let them go. So hopefully we'll be seeing more seasons of Hannibal, just not with NBC.
They always said that the show was always on the cusp of being threatened with cancellation due to its subject matter, though it makes me sad since the third season just started with the move to the summer. I would've thought that such a move would've been better for the ratings, turns out not so much. But imagine the show being picked up by something like Netflix, where Bryan Fuller can go all out with his imagination that NBC wouldn't allow him to. Hannibal is a show that is certainly not for everyone, but it is still a show that has had a loyal fanbase and is worth keeping around, if only for one more season to wrap everything up with how Fuller wants to handle his version of the Hannibal Lector story.

It's an intriguing look so far with where Hannibal and Will current states are, and what is being planned for their futures. It's still as unsettling as ever, and deliciously so. I'm loving the pacing, which I think will work better with it being marathoned, but still I'm enjoying it so far. This news saddened me but at least NBC is having the decency of showing the rest of the season during the summer. More than anything I want to see where all this goes, especially getting to the Red Dragon storyline which I'm really excited about.
