that serial cooking show

[Cross-posted from my email by request.]

I had a cold last week and so somehow I ended up watching all 13 episodes of the new NBC Hannibal show.¹ Some conclusions I came to:

• Mads Mikkelsen continues to be really gorgeous when he's evil, especially when he is also wardrobed in the world's best suits.
  
  
• Hugh Dancy suffers incredibly prettily. Also his name is really fun to say. Dancy Dancy Dancy.
  
  
• Hannibal is a terrible person, obviously, but he gives the best hugs.
  
  
• Also the food on this show looks so good that I would probably eat it even if I knew that it was people. And, I mean, I'm not saying they all had it coming, but some of them were definitely rude and they should have made better life choices.

¹In retrospect, this is the other reason I didn't finish very many books in that week.
