If you love horror and the grotesque as well as emotionally raw acting and virtuoso crafting, then Hannibal Season One is something you need to not only see, but to have on your shelf.
Personally, I'd say it was right up there with the strongest episodes of my two favorite shows from last year, Hannibal (NBC) and Utopia (UK's Channel 4).
I plan on checking out another episode or two. If I gave Almost Human that long to find its footing, it would be a crime to not to do the same for a real science fiction show.
The bad guy is alive, talking smack, so Kennex shoots him in the fucking face. With no repercussions. Without even a single mention. Then the boys go out for beers and hopefully some cheap cop groupies.
