Maureen Ryan: A Star Turn Elevates The Disturbing 'Hannibal'
If you are wary of yet another show about serial killers and tired of violence in general, know that "Hannibal" (10 p.m. ET Thursday, NBC) is not a cheap attempt to ride TV's blood-lust trend. At times, this drama is absolutely transfixing, and I say that as someone who felt great weariness at the thought of...

That doesn't feel like a hardshipAs one whose parents used to keep sherry for months in a decanter, it seems ironic that today's most fashionable sherry will deteriorate within weeks – even when unopened.
