Seven seasons seems pretty ambitious (I don't think any of Bryan Fuller's shows have gone past a second season?), so maybe they will still be able to do the original seven season plan but condense it down a bit at the end which I'd be okay with. I don't want the first couple of seasons to be rushed through, but I'm fine with skipping through Hannibal Rising *g*

And hopefully the critical praise will encourage them to give it another shot then! Also I read something about it not being too expense for them to produce because it's an international co-production? I know nothing about American networks really lol, I always thought that it was FOX that was the one likely to do the worst, and the others were all pretty established as successfull...
