This Is Our Design #22- “Trou Normand” with Myles McNutt

Like the image of a totem of bodies, This Is Our Design is here to haunt your waking moments. You thought you could be done with all this Hannibal discussion already. You thought you would be safe once the summer finished. But you were dead wrong. Moving on to people who are hopefully not dead wrong each week, co-hosts Sean Colletti and Kate Kulzick are joined by Myles McNutt of Cultural Learnings and The A.V. Club to talk about "Trou Normand" and things not disturbing in the slightest. Join the crew as they break down themes of disappearing, the use of killers who aren't Hannibal Lecter in his series, and the roles of Alana Bloom and Jack Crawford in this memorable first-season episode. Also, don't sleep on the segments "Kate's Classical Corner," "The Devil in the Details," and "Spoiled Meat." In fact, don't sleep at all. We sure don't. Feel free to join the discussion by leaving a comment.

This Is Our Design #21- “Fromage” with Randy Dankievitch

Just when you thought Hannibal was a nice, quiet character drama in which people talk about stuff while sitting in chairs...BAM! Full-on, hand-to-hand combat action! Yeah! The folks here at This Is Our Design brought our karate belts to show off for the occasion. Unfortunately, Sean's white belt caught fire while recording. This week, co-hosts Sean Colletti and Kate Kulzick are joined by Randy Dankievitch from Processed Media (and several other TV-related publications). Many monumental things occur in the discussion, not least of which is finding TV correlations to Shakespearean tragedies. If that's not enough for you, then certainly "Kate's Classical Corner," "The Devil in the Details," and "Spoiled Meat" will be, right? If not, you can find us. We'll be there...in the shadows...playing vocal chords like a cello.

This Is Our Design #20- “Sorbet” with Molly Eichel

Join in and listen to co-hosts Sean Colletti and Kate Kulzick as they are joined by the fabulous Molly Eichel, whose reviews of Hannibal you've probably already read at The A.V. Club. There's a lot to break down here, including some in-depth thoughts on the man himself, Hannibal Lecter. But also prepare for an extra detailed "Kate's Classical Corner" in addition to "The Devil in the Details" and "Spoiled Meat," which have been taking the universe by storm. Or so we'd like to think. Feel free to join in the conversation by leaving a comment.

This Is Our Design #19- “Entree” with Steve Prokopy

In this episode, co-hosts Sean Colletti and Kate Kulzick are joined by Steve Prokopy of Ain't It Cool News as they delve into a bigger, sadder Jack Crawford who could use a helping hand (or arm). Stick around for all the hidden treasures of "Kate's Classical Corner," "The Devil in the Details," and "Spoiled Meat," which isn't as disgusting as it sounds. Or maybe it is. You can let us know by leaving a comment!

This Is Our Design #18- “Coquilles” with Zack Handlen and Dennis Perkins

Nostalgia is only one feeling we draw on in This Is Our Design, however. The others are much less benign. They are, in fact, troubling, just like Hannibal. We'd like to say "Luckily, you have co-hosts Sean Colletti and Kate Kulzick to guide you," but there's nothing lucky about that, at least regarding Sean, who curses at his inanity at some point in this podcast (listener discretion is advised). However, special guests Zack Handlen and Dennis Perkins from The A.V. Club swoop in to alleviate the whole situation. Tune in for some lengthy discussions of friendship, inevitability, and the wonder that is Gina Torres. Also, stick around for the following recurring segments: "Kate's Classical Corner," "The Devil in the Details," and "Spoiled Meat," and sit in awe at how cleverly titled they remain, even after the novelty has worn off. Have a listen and feel free to join the discussion by leaving some comments.

This Is Our Design #17- “Oeuf” with David Bax

NBC might not have aired it, but we here at This Is Our Design were never going to pass up the chance to talk about "Oeuf," Hannibal's most notorious episode. Co-hosts Sean Colletti and Kate Kulzick are joined by David Bax of Battleship Pretension and Hey, Watch This! to break down the episode (and...break...some...eggs!? (it's a pun on the title (only now do we realize breaking and cracking something are two different processes))). Discussion centers heavily around ideas of family as we lead into some of our best editions of the recurring segments yet: "Kate's Classical Corner," "The Devil in the Details," and "Spoiled Meat," which has much to do with kitchenware. Have a listen and feel free to join the discussion by leaving some comments.

The Televerse #155- SDCC 2014 Hannibal Pressroom

With the summer winding down, a new batch of TV shows are reaching their finales, giving us plenty to discuss on the podcast. First we take a look at the week in comedy, including the series finale of Wilfred. Next up is reality, with some Top Chef: Duels talk as well as our regular SYTYCD breakdown. After that, we talk genre, including a preview of BBC America’s upcoming Intruders, and then we break down a very full and very emotional week in drama, including intense episodes of Rectify and Masters of Sex, as well as the pilot for Legends. Afterward, instead of the DVD Shelf, it’s one more week of Comic Con coverage.

This week, co-hosts Sean Colletti and Kate Kulzick are joined by Sound On Sight's Deepayan Sengupta to break down the continuation of the Hobbs story. Tune in for some discussion of Hannibal as tragedy and listen in awe as the panelists do some on-the-fly psychoanalysis. Also, stick around for the three greatest recurring segments to ever exist on a podcast called This Is Our Design: "Kate's Classical Corner," "The Devil in the Details," and "Spoiled Meat," which first-time viewers of the series will want to avoid (unless you don't care about spoilers, in which case you deserve a high-five.*high-five*).

This Is Our Design #15- “Amuse-Bouche” with Les Chappell

Welcome back to This Is Our Design, where we do our best not to kill people and turn them into mushroom fertilizer. We can't say the same about what goes on in Hannibal, though, so listeners beware. Also, beware: Awesome discussion ensues when listening to this podcast. This week, that awesomeness is derived from co-hosts Sean Colletti and Kate Kulzick's special guest, Les Chappell of The A.V. Club, who has returned to the insanity of This is Our Design despite his better judgment. Included in the discussion are some thoughts about the theme of connection in Hannibal, opinions of new characters, and OH MY GOODNESS, IS HE TURNING PEOPLE INTO MUSHROOMS!? Also keep an ear out for our recurring segments "Kate's Classical Corner," "The Devil in the Details," and "Spoiled Meat," the most spoiler-y of spoiler-y segments a podcast called This Is Our Design has to offer. Have a listen and feel free to join the discussion by leaving some comments.
