Re: Did I write this in my sleep

[mekkio]

My theory? The people who think of him as a woobie are not familiar with the genre that Hannibal sits squarely in. (I know there are quite a few fans who came to the show not because of the premise but because it's a Fuller show and they were big Pushing Daisies fans.) So, not being familiar with the psycho/slasher genre, they aren't familiar with how psychopaths work. They can't wrap their heads that Hannibal can not empathize with anyone or anything. That he is physically incapable to do so. (That part of his brain just doesn't light up.) Furthermore, most of these fans are probably also Sherlock fans. And they've seen Sherlock mislabeled as being a sociopath. So, since Sherlock can show emotion, such as concern for Watson and Mrs. Hudson, they probably think why can't Hannibal do the same? But, again, Sherlock was mislabeled while Hannibal, on the other hand, is the real McCoy. But the doesn't stop people from expect Hannibal to act like the "sociopath" that Sherlock has been described to be.

Re: Did I write this in my sleep

This is probably part of it, but the same thing happens in the genre itself. Stories that focus intensely on an unforgivable character inevitably find ways to forgive them, because that's how you keep people reading. The same thing has happened with Dexter, and is happening again in Bates Motel. It might be partly a more modern trend, but it's absolutely present in more than just people's own little fantasies. Vampires aren't the only villains that modern media's repainted with a fresh coat of sexy angst.
