Tonight NBC is all new with a brand new episode of Hannibal. We are down to the final four episodes of the current season and the show has not yet been renewed for next year. However, The show’s developer, Bryan Fuller is confident that they will not be canceled.
The official plot synopsis for tonight’s all new episode, titled "Naka-Choko," reads:
“Hannibal and Will form a bond as Will undergoes a dark transformation. Meanwhile, the team investigates a disturbing tableaux; Margot grows concerned over her brother's violent nature; and Will agrees to be interviewed for Freddie's book.”
The show has yet to see an official renewal but the show’s executive producer Bryan Fuller seems confident that show will return, telling Digital Spy:
"I hear very positive things. All of the creatives at NBC are so supportive of the show and want it back, and the schedules and salespeople are like, 'It's a new show, get rid of it'. We are banking on the creative people winning out over the salespeople.The ratings are not anything to jump up and down about, but the critical acclaim is great, and we're sort of a prestige project for the network, so we're hoping that's enough, like it was last year. There have been indications that it will be."
However, if they are wrong and the show is not picked back up by NBC then there is a backup plan in place:
"The confidence hasn't stopped us from seeking out backup plans that would get us a third season one way or another. There are many more options than there have been in the past. So I feel very confident about a season three. We end season two in such a strange way - boy, I would be pissed [if that were the end]! We don't quite land the plane, we leave the plane in the air."
What do you think? Should NBC pick the show back up? Would you rather see the show on a streaming format like Netflix? Check out the all new episode tonight at 10:00 p.m on NBC and be sure to let us know what you think in the comments section at the bottom of the page.
