This is hands down the best show I have ever seen. The acting, dialogue, clothing, every meticulous detail truly makes this a masterpiece. It's a real shame it got cancelled during the 3rd season. Based on what I've read they couldn't get the viewings and one of the challenges is they kept moving the time slots around at the network and....the content is insanely graphic. This has the production value of something you would see on Starz or HBO. This show is a MUST SEE, w no distractions.

Google ripped me off and charged me twice for Season 1 of Hannibal...I emailed them weeks ago and asked for a $9.99 to be put back on my account. They have the records of the double charge. Google refuses to acknowledge the double charge, leaving my account short by $9.99. Don't trust Google, Google Play, and their bogus "gift cards." This multi-billion dollar company has no compunction about cheating customers. Pathetic, Google.

This show is just amazing. I didn't even realize my skin could still crawl from horror, and yet here we are. I'm a little sad that I appear to have missed my chance to purchase seasons 1 & 2 as only 3 is currently available for sale. I suppose I shall just have to sup on disappointment until Google corrects this oversight and lets me throw more of my money at this wonderful show.
