    15 Reasons You Need To Be Watching NBC's Hannibal RIGHT Now

    Hannibal returns to television on February 28th, at 10:00 p.m. (ET/PT)

    1. The Man Who Made it ALL Possible - Bryan Fuller

    2. Hannibal Lecter is CRAZY (good!)

    3. ALL THAT FOOD

    4. Hugh Dancy

    5. Will's Dogs

    6. Puns

    7. Team Sassy

    8. Hannigram

    9. The show is visually stunning

    10. The "Supporting" Cast

    11. The Symbolism

    12. The Fannibals

    13. BECAUSE MADS

    14. It's Pushing Boundaries

    During its first season, NBC made Hannibal pull one episode that involved children murdering their parents in wake of Sandy Hook. While this is certainly understandable in the wake of such a terrible tragedy, NBC has further proven to be hesitant to approve much of what is submitted by the creators. Season 2 was put on hold initially due to the network's hesitation about the intense and graphic nature of the show.

    Hannibal may finally be one of the first edgy and controversial shows to make it into the big network world.

    15. It Will Toy With Your Emotions

    Okay, so that doesn't SOUND like the greatest thing. But trust me - it is. One moment you're happy, looking at puppies and cuddles, the next - shit's just got turned inside out. Season 1 brought all the feels, and it was an emotional, but wonderful experience. Perhaps all the tortuous mind games are the reason we Fannibals have such a twisted sense of humor.
