Goat Season

Phil and Alex discuss Hannibal season 2’s seismic mid-season episode Yakimono but not before some tortured reflection on the academy of motion picture arts and sciences and their lame-ass snitch behavior.

In this episode on season 2 episode 6 of NBC's HANNIBAL, Phil and Alex declare Alana’s tryst with Hannibal "the ultimate bonehead move" although the actual ultimate bonehead move IS SITTING TOO CLOSE TO THE MIC, ALEX. Apologies for his shitty audio!

Phil and Alex discuss a sad slice of HANNIBAL season 2 this week, bidding farewell to a real one (THEY TURNED HER INTO A POWER POINT!! er, Slide Deck?) and also chopping it up about their bad eating habits, Stuart Townsend, Killers of the Flower Moon and POGs.

Phil and Alex are joined by Will and Hannibal shipper and Fast Saga scholar Abby Matulewicz for a discussion of season 2's amazing fourth episode, Takiawase. Fanfiction.net is invoked, shit gets dark.Find Abby's amazing Fast and Furious reviews at her Letterboxd: https://boxd.it/9iNT

Phil and Alex discuss HANNIBAL's stab (ugh) at a courtroom drama, with the third episode of season 2, "Hassun." Topics include AI generated murder, Governator Cynthia Nixon, the permanent shuttering of the Martin Donovan appreciation society and Judy Gemstone collecting the scalps of other beloved HBO characters. NOTE: A power-ranking of the most shocking tv deaths was redacted for your protection.

Phil and Alex continue their breakdown of HANNIBAL Season 2 with "Sakizuke." Is this the most traumatic cold open of all time? What appetizer holds a dark and terrible secret, whether or not it's being prepared by our favorite cannibal chef? And finally, why do the boys spend so much time discussing the career of respected character actor Martin Donovan, who only appears briefly in this one episode? Find out the answers to some of these questions, definitely not all of them, in this week's regular-sized episode!
