Yeah S3 was a disappointment for me as well and the second half is not a whole lot better either but it's definitely worth a watch, for Armitage and of course Mikkelsen if nothing else. And great moments as you mentioned are there from time to time. My biggest problem was with how they completely ruined Alana's character. She was consistently among the best parts of the show in the first two seasons.£Now Where Was I ? wrote:I finished the first half of S3 and I must say I'm really disappointed so far. The show has always been philosophical and abstract, but it definitely jumped the shark. Fuller & co. seemed to not care about the actual plot, making Will an incredibly passive figure in that stretch of episodes. There was 3, maybeee 4 episodes of story in that arc. Chiyoh was by far the worst character of the show.
My favorite segment was the first half of S2, second half started to become a bit too abstract for me, but it was still incredibly compelling. Should I even bother with the Red Dragon episodes? Is it like the first half ?
There's still great moments here and there and the acting from the main cast is still exquisite. I just want some interesting stuff to continue.
Hannibal (TV)
I dug the Italy Arc in the first half of Season 3, but yeah Chiyo was a confusing and kinda disappointing character. Red Dragon arc was pretty badass though. Really loved the hell out of Armitage's twisted ass performance, and yeah my boy Mads as always killed it. The primavera scene (see: my avy) is probably my favorite scene if just for his and Hugh Dancy's performances. Dead fuckin ass.

First Penny Dreadful, then Hannibal, and then American Gods.
Why can't we get a gothic/horror show without it getting mutilated (pun unintended)?
