Last month, Nerdophiles had the exciting opportunity to attend Bay Area Sherlock Con in Santa Clara, CA. While the convention itself took place on Saturday, several attendees stuck around for the tea party on Sunday afternoon, hosted by artist and tea expert Cara McGee. While more relaxed and intimate than […]
The Gothic Tradition Found in Serial Killer Television
So I took a class on the Gothic tradition and for my final project and my honors contract, I wrote two articles. One of them was connecting the gothic to some of our favorite television serial killers. Here it is, reformatted for Nerdophiles. Death is a living-breathing beast. The Gothic […]
How to Survive the Hannibal #HeAteUs
The Hannibal ‘he-ate-us’ is now underway. We have successfully made it through an entire week. I am so proud of all of you. But since it’s only been seven days I suspect that the full weight of what this hiatus means hasn’t quite sunken in for my fellow Fannibals. Considering […]
Hannibal: Savoureux Recap [Season Finale]
All I have to say is that Bryan Fuller is goddamn lucky there is going to be a second season because if he had left things like that I would have found him, shanked him, and baked him into… I don’t know. Bread or something. Because that ending was extremely […]
NBC's Hannibal Has the Best Tumblr Manager Ever
This is, in many ways, an open letter of devotion to the NBC Hannibal Tumblr administrator. But in other respects, it’s a look into how television shows and networks are tapping into some of the gold mines of the internet that were rather undiscovered. If you haven’t been to the […]
Hannibal: Rôti Recap
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ihk0XPJCPb0] So tonight’s episode was a little hard for me to watch.

Hannibal: Fromage Recap
It looks like this week on Hannibal we’re adding auditory hallucinations to Will’s growing list of psychological problems. Not to mention the effect it’s going to have on any possible relationship/personal problems he’s already got. The episode starts with Will hearing what sounds like animals fight with one another outside […]
My (Open) Letter to NBC; RE: Hannibals’ Ceuf/Œuf
By now, you should know that we love Hannibal here at Nerdophiles. Although Sam keeps up with the recaps, both Jane and I are avid watchers of the show. Now some of you may not know this, but I am actually a huge francophile. I am working at a French […]
