So. . .if I'm reading this recent article from Deadline correctly (it's the one called "Comic-Con: Bryan Fuller Reveals ‘Hannibal’ Season 3 Details, Returning Characters & Emmy Disappointment"; LJ won't let me link to it), it looks like we're getting Red Dragon smashed into the end of next season.
I'm. . .I'm not sure how I like this. I mean, I was curious how they'd expand Red Dragon to fulfill a 13-episode arc. But, I was hoping they'd use the time and space to flesh out Dolarhyde and Reba and their relationship and move away from the Hannibal/Will murder husbands. So, right now, I'm extremely nervous about Dolarhyde's characterization and Alana being slotted into Reba's role to cut down on the number of new characters. (NGL, I'm pretty furious if that's the direction they're taking Alana.)
Upside: if I am reading Fuller's quotes correctly, at least I won't have to live in fear that Hannibal will be cancelled before the Red Dragon season.
But. . .Fannibals Three, I'm really scared now. Really, really scared.
