Thanks for this, Biz. Ever since first hearing rumours ages ago about there being a show about Clarice Starling show, I was a bit unsure of it as Clarice without Hannibal is like Batman without the Joker, Superman without Lex Luthor, etc. However, if they cane really delve deep into her character, it could be interesting. I thought because of COVID that perhaps that show wouldn't even get made...but I guess it did. Remains to be seen how long it lasts, though. I was surprise by the casting of Rebecca Breeds as Clarice, as I had only seen her guest star in a season of The Originals (which was a spin-off from The Vampire Diaries). I've since then seen her in a grand total of ONE movie...so not much to go on. I'm willing to give her a chance at least - probably the fact that she's an Aussie actress is a contributing factor. I'm going to take a 'wait and see' approach. I do hope they eventually sort something out so Mads Mikkelsen from Hannibal can eventually make an appearance (though I'm not holding my breath). Here's hoping whatever trailer they next release shows a bit more.

Breeds is a good choice-she was decent in The Originals

It looks better than expected. I was a huge huge fan of Hannibal. And am still pissed they canceled it!

It looks better than expected. I was a huge huge fan of Hannibal. And am still pissed they canceled it! I remember when it was first announced a show was going to be made about Hannibal Lecter, there was the usual skepticism. When Mads Mikkelsen was cast, though, it seemed people were willing to give it a chance. I tuned into the first episode when it aired on TV here and was immediately hooked. It's now one of my Top 10 favourite shows ever. So now there's a show all about Clarice Starling and again there's lots of skepticism. True, this time they don't have a well-established actor like Mads Mikkelsen in the lead role, but I've learned from past experience not to underestimate these Australian actors (or if this case, actress), as sometimes they can surprise with how good they actually are. It remains to be seen what Rebecca Breeds will do with the role, but I'm going to give her a fair chance. I too was annoyed Hannibal was cancelled, but given how hit and miss Season 3 was, I'm not sure whether a fourth season would've been an improvement or not. It looks better than expected. I was a huge huge fan of Hannibal. And am still pissed they canceled it! It was awesome. Last season was kinda lame though What I found frustrating about the third/final season was the first half of it seemed rather 'slow', and then once they got to the Red Dragon plot, things suddenly seemed to be sped up and I thought it felt rushed. It could've been better if they hadn't been cancelled, I think. Still, there were things I liked in the season.

I'm intrigued. The trailer makes it look decent. I liked Hannibal. Enough time has passed that I could get into this universe again.

So far, "Silence of the Lambs" is the only thing in this franchise that I have liked.

Did anyone ever watch Hannibal Rising? Thoughts on that? From what I remember I liked it. I know, it was critically trashed and performed woefully at the BO lol

Looks interesting. And unlike some people, I'm at least willing to give it a chance (already there's complaining on YouTube. The typical sorts, hating on it because its a show with a female lead, saying it'll be 'feminist' or whatever, and whining about the actress's appearance, etc). People didn't like the idea of a show made about Hannibal...and it turned out great. Naturally, some are a lot more harsh with the idea of a show about Clarice and less willing to give it a chance. Did anyone ever watch Hannibal Rising? Thoughts on that? From what I remember I liked it. I know, it was critically trashed and performed woefully at the BO lol That's the only one I haven't yet seen. I remember it being trashed, but I'm still curious to check it out.
