Should This Mashup Of Presidents Trump And Putin Star As The New Hannibal Lecter On HBO?

Classic mashup. I used to be a sucker for a good ole fashioned mashup. For instance, Glee would kill it on the mashup front. They delivered hits that made the whole world sing. Like this one for example. Before Gwenth was naming her kids weird shit like Apple, she was slaying the mashup game. Apple. What a weirdo. Name your fucking kids something normal like McCartney.

Umbrella-ella-ella-ella-ella-eh-eh-eh incredible.

Now, I’m not sure if Presidents Trump and Putin get down to the show tunes like we all do but I have a role for them to play.

Did you fellas ever watch NBC’s Hannibal? It was a TV adaption of the Hannibal Lecter character. Now, I dont know if I’ve ever given this take publically but Mads Mikkelsen is a better Hannibal than Anthony Hopkins was which is saying something. Silence of the Lambs is one of my favorite movies and books. Yes, you read that right. I read the books too.

Sadly, Hannibal the TV show was canceled despite critics and viewers absolutely adoring the show. It was truly must-watch television. The culinary world was in awe at Mad Mikkelsen’s skills in crafting meals using primarily humans as the protein source. Take this scene for example.

The series was dark, ominous, and horrifying. The fact that it was originally broadcast on NBC still blows my mind. If the show were on HBO, Netflix, or Showtime, Hannibal could have been one of the greatest shows of the last 10 years. Over the years since the cancelation, other networks and distributors have tried to get the series going again. It didnt work. Perhaps that’s because Mads Mikkelsen was committed to other projects. It’s a shame but all hope is not lost.

Maybe this mashup of Trump and Putin could star in the show. It’s worth thinking about. If not, maybe the Trumptin mashup could at least preform this number, again from Glee, to make up for them not being in the Hannibal TV show.
