This show is the perfect combination of comedy and drama. I seriously can't understand why any of Bryan Fuller's shows can't make it past two seasons. The man is brilliant! Prayer circle for Hannibal...
A show that definitely shouldn't have been canceled.
Funniest show ever!
love this cast ^^
it's all about death yet it is fun to watch :D
