Today we're discussing a pop culture icon, the one, the only...Hannibal Lecter. We take time for all of his incarnations, touching on the source material as well as the myriad of adaptations, and bring it all back to: why do we love Hannibal the Cannibal so dang much?

Homework for the episode: Manhunter (1986, dir. Michael Mann), Silence of the Lambs (1991, dir. Jonathan Demme), Hannibal (2001, dir. Ridley Scott), Red Dragon (2002, dir. Brett Ratner), and Hannibal (2013-2015, pr. Bryan Fuller)
