Hannibal S01E01 (NBC, 2013-)

Only one name made me sit down and watch this show:  Bryan Fuller.  The man whose shows Pushing Daisies and Dead Like Me were tragically cut short.  Those shows weren't my cuppa tea, I tell you, but they were watchable - more than watchable:  entertaining television.

The pilot is good.  Mr Fuller and friends seem to have taken into account all of the Hannibal material rather than committee cherry-picked from the films.  This is promising.

Think I'll have to watch it again with the Better Half at my side.
