* Hannibal is no go for me. Oh, I love the characters and the aesthetic, but Season two pretty much hits all my triggers. I pushed through to some point in episode 4, but it clearly wasn't going to let up any time soon. The thing with me and triggers is the ones that are left are complicated. I short hand it to gas lighting, which is a prominent part, but there is a whole cluster of connected things. The more of those things present, the harder it is for me to deal. I can guess which things are in the ballpark generally, but some things don't trigger that on paper should and there is always guess work involved. Shudder Island was fine; Changeling was impossible, for example. Season two Hannibal is like a bingo card for my triggers. I know a bunch of you really wanted me to watch it, but I'm done.
* The Walking Dead: I stand by my belief that Carol is the scariest, most dangerous group member. I like them addressing PTSD. This is exactly the right time for it. I am hoping this means they will finally flesh Sasha out. Daryl is the horse. Domesticate him and he dies. I am glad Michonne has the sword in reach and not in the armory. Even excluding the inevitable Walker break through or human attack, they have old people in Alexandria. What if someone has a heart attack and dies in the night, etc.. I've always been of the lock yourself in with a weapon at night school of thought. Disarming means they are fucked if someone has an aneurism or chokes to death eating dinner.
