Last Updated on July 22, 2021

It's taken a while, but it seems that the positive word of mouth on NBC's "Hannibal" has helped it pull in slighly higher ratings lately, which is fantastic news. Now if we could only get confirmation that we'll be seeing a third season and I'll be a happy boy. I still maintain that "Hannibal" is the best show on network TV right now and it deserves to find an audience.

Today we have a look ahead at this upcoming Friday's episode of "Hannibal", titled 'Shiizakana'. Peep the synopsis and promo for ep. 2×09 below and be sure to tune in or set those DVR's.

"Hannibal" ep. 2×09 'Shiizakana'

The FBI is called in to investigate the discovery of a truck driver’s body, seemingly torn apart by two separate species of animal working in tandem, neither of which consumed their kill. After one of his therapy sessions, Will (Hugh Dancy) meets Hannibal’s (Mads Mikkelsen) strange new patient, Margot Verger (Katherine Isabelle). Will and Margot compare notes on Hannibal and his unconventional advice. Continually encouraging his patients to revel in what they are, Hannibal aims to determine Will’s true self by sending him a test, the results of which surprise even Hannibal.

"Hannibal" airs on NBC on Friday nights at 10pm/eastern.
