Chilton died more than a couple episodes ago. How far behind are you?

Consensus is usually that spoiler alerts are only required for the two most recent episodes. Otherwise, everything that anyone posts everywhere needs a spoiler. As in "SPOILER ALERT: Will Graham suspects Hannibal is the Chesapeake Ripper."

It makes me think of the plaid suit that Paul Schneider wore in "Bright Star:"

Part of the reason they wore 70s style suits was to make it harder to date. The first few episodes in the first season didn't show much technology if any. No computers on the desks and a 70s style landline phone on Hannibal's desk.

He willingly wore an argyle sweater vest over a dress shirt this winter. I might be able to slip him into a plaid vest if I can find one in this town.

I have enjoyed the um...bold plaid suits that Hannibal and Dr. Chilton wear (or wore in Chilton's case RIP Chilton).

I just noticed that the actor who played Chilton wore a plaid suit in a recent episode of Law and Order: SVU. Are plaid suits IN now? If so, are they just too trendy for conservative DC. I'd like to get my guy into one.

This is what I mean:
