And yes, I don't think Fuller wants us to think too hard about timelines or little details on the serial killer of the week - it just seems to be there as a framework so the characters have something new to talk about :D
I really don't want to be one of Those People who nitpick everything! I don't like those people! It's just really, really hard to describe what's happening to people (some of whom aren't watching the actual show) if you have no idea when any of this is happening!
The more episodes I see the more I want this to run season after season, the more I hope they use just enough of the books to make it recognisable but otherwise go with how the characters are established in the show (if that makes any sense).
Yeah, I would be really interested to see it take a life of its own--that idea of the new elements rippling into the future--while still hitting most of the key points in the books. And, honestly, probably a ton that there wasn't time in the movies for--that'll be really interesting, seeing a book adapted over basically 12 hours instead of 2.
I don't think you are nitpicking, I just felt the same confusion while watching. It was like, what when is this happening, how did they get there ... eventually it was like, okay Fuller, I get it, it's not important ...

Thanks, yes, that describes much better and precisely what I meant. I would not even be mad if MGM does not give out the rights for Silence characters, I am sure Fuller could come up with something equally brilliant for his future-reboot
the show is so dreamy/nightmarey that I just try to go with dream logic for those logistics that don't match up... (jumping on late to the hannibal train!)
