Yeah.  Also, Hannibal's superhuman sense of smell is repeatedly used to very, very creepy effect.

My initial suspicion that there would be just about more serial killers in Hannibal than there are regular murders in Baltimore has borne out nicely too. :)

I think there's only one serial killer in the Baltimore area on the show who isn't Hannibal. FBI is federal.

That's a lot of elided over plane rides.  No wonder Will Graham is so tired all the time.  Also it's because he's a weenie.

We need more Walking dead talk. This Crazy Alive maneating talk sucks.

Not much to say about last episode.

It was awesome.

[spoiler]I found it odd that Michonne could walk with the herd unnoticed. I know that she had the two pets with her, but that shouldn't stop the other zombies from sniffing her out. In S.1 they had to pretty much cover themselves head to toe in zombie goo to prevent being detected in a herd.[/spoiler]

Also not enough talk about Shameless. After a poor second season, this show keeps pushing boundaries and is one of the most underrated shows on US Cable these days.

I think this plays in the fear factor. They don't sniff you out, they only hear you.

Tonitrus

[spoiler]No more odd than the armless/mouthless zombies suddenly becoming all passive.  You'd think they would still be trying to force living body parts down their throat by inertia or something.  But also notice that before she did the sword rage thing, she was doing a depressed zombie-walk.[/spoiler]

It's been established since the second season. 

[spoiler]Having passive zombies close by changes everything.  Possibly due not only to human scent being masked, but might be some pheromones from the passive zombies too.  Now why are they passive when their hands and mouth are cut is a mystery just as why there are zombies in the first place [/spoiler]
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Watched the first episode of the walking dead of this half season.  After such a dramatic ending to the last half season this was, in a word, boring.  Lots of character development but I found myself not really caring about the characters.

Tonitrus

That was pretty much my take as well.


Grey Fox

It's everybody's take. Get ready we're getting 3 more episodes of this until the gang is, once again, whole.
