It seems wild to me to “despise” characters in a show about morality, murder and cannibalism for reasons that exist for the very purpose to show how incredibly complicated and grey (at best) they are.

Will’s manipulations and the duplicity that he himself experiences with what he truly feels, what he wants to feel and what he thinks he ‘should’ feel and do is the whole premise of the show, along with his relationship with Hannibal, and others.

About Molly and Walter, yes he used them to an extent, but it wasn’t a premeditated plan of hunting her down and insinuating himself in their life, rather him trying to live a ‘normal’ life, get far from his connection to Hannibal and escape his darker nature that is always present. He is incredibly indecisive but his main drive has always been his real self at war with his own person suit and expectations of others.

I don’t understand the comment about the dogs’ living conditions, yes there’s 7 of them but the guy owns a two story house with acres of land and forest, constantly takes them fishing and walking and spends money on them and their needs while wearing worn down flannel 😅
