Is anyone else watching it?

It's like a cable drama in terms of acting, writing, cinematography, etc.

If you're a fan of the Red Dragon / Silence of the Lambs series you should check this show out. :yes:

I wanted to, but I missed the premier due to working too many goddamn hours in one week, so I didn't want to pick it up later. :(

I do like the show, my only complaint is with the actor playing Hannibal. Why exactly does he have to have such a heavy accent? Anthony Hopkins didn't have a heavy accent at all. I just find myself missing dialog sometimes and that bothers me.
I love the story, and the writing is well above average.

Hmmm. I'll have to check it out then. I was a bit reluctant at first

Hannibal is European in the novels so the actor's thick accent works well here. He's the same guy who played the villain in Casino Royale.

I just think his accent is unnecessarily heavy. But, its either lightening up, or I'm getting better at understanding it.
