* GentlemanAndAScholar: Hannibal is this, being improbably (but not impossibly) talented in a number of fields, but also seen as witty, charming and urbane. The fact that he's European probably helps cover up some of his slightly odd mannerisms, at least the ones that are publicly displayed.

** Dr. Gideon not only performs a local anesthetic vivisection on Chilton (i.e., gutting him whilst he's semi-conscious), but he kidnaps Freddie and forces her to watch ''and'' manually keep Chilton breathing.

* ArtisticLicenseAnimalCare: At dinner with Hannibal, Jacks wife turns down foie gras on the basis of cruelty; Hannibal reassures her that he patronizes an ethical, cruelty-free butcher. However, the accusations of cruelty regarding foie gras are rooted in the fact that the duck or goose must be force fed for weeks to ensure their liver is as fatty as possible; this is an unavoidable step, regardless how ethical the butcher.

* DullSurprise: [[http://s8.postimg.org/g1x4oydqt/image.png Hannibal's reaction]] to Mason casually stabbing his office furniture in "Tome-wan." Given Hannibal's usual [[TheStoic stoicism]], however, this particular use of the trope [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools rather effectively]] conveys his revulsion.

A peculiar genre mash-up of ForensicDrama and GothicHorror, the series follows [[TheProfiler FBI profiler]] Will Graham (Creator/HughDancy) as he investigates difficult serial killer cases for Special Agent Jack Crawford (Creator/LaurenceFishburne). Requiring further assistance, psychiatrist Dr. Alana Bloom (Creator/CarolineDhavernas) recommends they enlist the help of the world-renowned psychiatrist Hannibal Lecter (Creator/MadsMikkelsen), to both consult on cases and keep Will from becoming too caught up in the horrors of his job.

''[[ItWasHisSled Wait, did we mention Hannibal Lecter is secretly a cannibal and serial killer?]]''

Set before ''Literature/RedDragon'', the novel that started [[AdaptationDisplacement the Thomas Harris books]] and led to the award-winning film series, the show frequently leans on [[DramaticIrony Hannibal's double life]] and his [[ManipulativeBastard "friendship"]] with Will and co. as they solve grisly murders. Not only is the show notable for its writing, it was also built on an infamous cocktail of SceneryGorn and FoodPorn -- expect [[SupremeChef beautifully constructed meals]] made with MysteryMeat, and corpses mutilated in some [[ForTheEvulz unique]] and [[PoeticSerialKiller artistic]] ways.

Premiering on Creator/{{NBC}} on April 4th, 2013, the show was later renewed for a second season in 2014, and a third in 2015. The show quickly gained popularity by drawing Fuller and Harris fans together, and for spawning an enthusiastic fanbase that has been skillfully and gleefully mirrored by [[JustForFun/OneOfUs the official blog]] [[http://nbchannibal.tumblr.com/ (MAJOR UNMARKED SPOILERS)]]. As to the full arc, Fuller announced an ultimate [[CrazyPrepared six-season plan]] for the show: after the two original seasons, Seasons 3-5 were to be a re-ordered, re-imagined version of the book series[[note]]The books in release order: ''Red Dragon'', ''The Silence of the Lambs'', ''Hannibal'', and ''Hannibal Rising''[[/note]] before the show closed on an original ending come Season 6.

** Actually, there is a farm in Spain that produces foie gras not through force-feeding, but through the geese naturally overfeeding themselves. The farmer there in Spain lets the geese naturally gorge themselves on acorns, olives, and of course, corn. So the force-feeding part is actually avoidable, so when Hannibal says that he patronizes an ethical, cruelty-free butcher, it can be inferred that the butcher makes foie gras this way. With this information, and if it were confirmed, this trope could actually be [[SubvertedTrope subverted.]]
