I could see why it doesn't have much of a following though. A lot of the conversations and back and forth when Hannibal is involved are incredibly highbrow. I doubt many people even get half of them.
I pray it gets picked up by an AMC or HBO or something. It was always weirdly placed on network TV. To gory, too smart. They probably want to put in another vote in talent show or something.

It might get picked up by Amazon or Netflix:

“I know there have been discussions on a couple of fronts with Netflix and Amazon,” Fuller says. “But I believe our deal with Amazon precludes a Netflix component so I think Netflix, who has expressed interest and has expressed great enthusiasm for the show… I don’t think contractually with our Amazon contract, they can pick up the show.”
Amazon holds the rights to the first three seasons of “Hannibal,” so it would make most sense to bring new life to the show over there, as opposed to via Netflix or perhaps another network, such as NBC-owned cablers Syfy, USA or Esquire, which are all heavy on scripted dramas as of late. (As for those NBC Universal cable properties picking up his show, Fuller says he has not heard any rumblings.)
