For the first time ever in watching this show, I felt DBs akwardness as an actor. Seeing Booth and Brennan just cohabitating and raising a baby together are not enough. i dont go and post there because I dont agree with them. I think that life events spilled into DBs ability to make chemistry happen with ED in the roles we all came to love. Thats no surprise, and apparently, neither is the fact that there is a dead body in the apartment. The case, the issue between Booth and Brennan, everything was superficial emotionally. I would also be considered a hater by Andrea, and Im all right with that. Later, Bones declares her "experiment" of living in Booth's shoes to be a success. It just seems like they write Brennan more for humor or make her character just be so dense to cause tension and drama. To those who enjoyed this episode, please telll me what show you were watching. . WEPT. In the series premiere, she told Booth she wanted to help him with his cosmic balance sheet. Years later, on a Halloween night, Booth shot and killed their suspect, and she said she was sorry he had to do that. Insightful recap, and I thank you for pointing out things Ive been trying not to dwell on. Hanson is living vicariously through Booth, the Macho Alpha Elite Sniper cum Prodigy FBI Agent cum Lothario cum Most Noblest Action Hero EVAR. However, I completely agree with you on the whole not liking how he affected the other characters thing and the scenes with him in it were heavy-handed. and her charging at a man while pregnant? It seems that whatever she learned last year has been forgotten. Sorry the whole B & B conflict was just so silly in this episode. Season 8 In The Partners in the Divorce, Finn helps in the Lab with the case and mentiones to Dr.Brennan how when his parents were exessively polite they had big fights. BUT AT THE SAME TIME present said man as a superhuman superhero for having to put up with this dribbling idiot. Next Episode . But whatever, this was just a heavily used smokescreen throughout the entire episode and has no real importance in the grand scheme of the Bones universe (unless he ends up killing them all) After every bones show, I can read your review and figure out why I feel the way I feel. To diffuse the tension between them, the couple agrees to experiment by putting themselves in each other's shoes. I had no clue who the characters were on Bones, I dont know that I care to watch that show that was on Thursday night. The Bones writers mess up all the time Id learned to let things like that go and just try to enjoy the show. And I agree with what others have said previously that if every episode is going to involve Brennan making a faux pas regarding the baby and/or Booth requiring her to make an apology every episode, thats going to get old really quickly. I dont know whats more annoying the pregnancy craving stereotype or the fact that Booth keeps implying that shes a pig. If Hart wanted to make Brennan pregnant because Emily was pregnant IRL, then he should have scripted S6 differently after Hannah left. Yet Booth does mean things and acts like an ass and all is forgiven? Hey, Worst BONES Scene EverHannah and her sunglasses called they want their title back. DB and ED did that for the first 4 and 1/2 seasons- then, something happened. tunefind Lists VIP. Its not like her to be judgmental, and her sanctity of the lab speech toward Cam feltwrong. But maybe thats just me being paranoid b. When Brennan became pregnant, I felt that B&B were in so way emotionally stable enough in their relationship to even consider having a child together. Camille, meanwhile, runs a check on chuck of human meat in the victim's stomach and reveals a big man named Brian, one of Tina's sponsors. I thought Caroline asked some very pertinent questions. Im tired of people who claim that those with negative comments arent real FANS. Does it really make sense to anyone that Brennan would not invite Booth to an ultrasound of their baby? At the rate this is going, if this weirdness and awkwardness continues on this way, if I ever rewatch the series Im going to pretend that The Beginning in the End is the end of the series and that Booth & Brennan ran off to their respective ends of the earth never to see each other again. Movies. I miss them. DiANNe0985. We need to see that Brennan has grown as a character. Maybe that is what made me crazy about all of this each person in this episode seemed negatively affected by Finns presence, whether hes a good person or not. That would explain the chicken bone lodged in her throat. I feel like I have been waiting years to say that . I loved Finn. Maybe this is reflected as to how he wrote Brennan last season for rejecting Booth. would put up with Brennan. We see that she has a basic understanding of Booths character as she has known him over the years, but shes learning as their relationship grows closer. Meanwhile, Angela is pleased (and grossed out) to find that within the crushed up hot dog bits in Tinas mouth, there is also a sliver of human tissue. Thank you so much for writing these reviews. But I know thats just my opinion. Maybe they just dont see anything else. (I mean that in a good way). The remarkable work of new squint Finn helps solve the crime. 2. Vanessa- I am always interested in the men/hubby take on this show when they are fans too. It turns out the man is now a rotting corpse.

This is the woman who told Hannah to get him an authentic rotary phone for a housewarming present because it reminded him of his grandfather! MESSAGES. I used to make the Bones vids. up with now being told about a OBGYN appointment and the sex of their I was an avid Bones fan but Season Six killed the show for me. Finn then suggests Angela calculate the mass of the killer using the thickness of the glass terrarium and the length of the room. Not that she pushed him, but what happened afterwards. Because clearly, from viewing that video, the man has problems. The only nice scene was the new intern talking about Bones old paper, but the rest of the episode overshadowed that one moment. The end scene was charming. The cold, dead corpse of Daisy As for Brennan, its just a classic case of Brennan. Mindy Gledhill. I can understand him being angry and frustrated but what he said to that fan was completely out of line. I did not mind Finn, actually, I thought he was kinda cute. Character integrity and continuity went out the window long ago and now the characters are treated like an Etch A Sketch. As he is written- an extreme alpha male complex present, then the money thorn wound would be bleeding profusely right now. I know my husband would raise the roof if I did not at least ask him to come They all seems disjointed. Yes, I will keep DVRing but I think I will actually go back to the Office and watch Bones at another time (In January go back to Greys anyway). This episode had me constantly confused by the message and the characters. Yeah. Okay, okayenough. Register Sign In. Buzz60. B&Bs relationship can work if you do it right. The bones are laid out on the table after . I still have hope, because of the last few scenes (and a lot more). Im not ready to write the show off or anything, but Im also not ready to declare it the best season ever. Changed my mind instantly about HH. Here, she was moreclueless. Angela then IDs the victim based on facial reconstruction: Tina Thomas. I would have rather have seen an extension of the diner conversation where Booth starts to talk about wanting to be a part of everything bring back the whole family thing because she would totally get that and make the connection immediately. What are your thoughts on Finn, and the way the team reacted to him? Thats exactly how I fell. She might have bitten and swallowed a piece of her attacker. Plus, there was a case. Back at the Jeffersonian, Caroline visits Camille and questions her decision to hire Finn. This is the same guy who has held a bitter grudge against Walter Sherman for 9 years because he came to arrest Booth for going AWOL when Parker was born. Agree with you all the way, Sarah.

(This week could be excused because of Greys). They were never meant to be. mother of his child. With a ratings of 2.7/7 that WILL happen this season if the writing doesnt hit the mark in the next four episodes. But just because we speak different don't mean we can't understand each other. Shouldnt she be telling this boy to get a haircut instead? So funny. I know, right), you think shed invite Booth along for the ultrasound, regardless if he prefers Tom Cruise to Rudolph Valentino. I dont even feel like addressing all of the points that some posters are upset with. I cannot understand how a man with any class would speak to someone like that and that fans think he is so wonderful. When Hannah left, we had roughly half a season that could have been spent watching B&B deal with the impact of Hannah and grow closer to each other. I feel his pain. When Brennan became pregnant, I felt that B&B were in NO way emotionally stable enough in their relationship to even consider having a child together. Instead we have these contrite story lines where all that has gone down in the previous seasons is just forgotten. Yes. Tina Thomas Edit Edit source . Back at the lab, Camille discovers a foreign substance in the food in Tina's throat. Booth then interviews the head of the competitive eating league, Mitch, who explains Tina had a big contest scheduled that week, one that could have netted her $10,000. In the end, she took Carolines word and asked Angela to do a secret background check on Finn. ***The snake thing was pretty cool. And I know I am not in the mirority. They had a chemistry between them that was totally undeniable- they had to in real life have that chemistry, because that is often how selections are made in hollywood for leads in shows. . Will she ever be up to date with social cues or pop culture? It would be tough to play with emoting the sexual tension out of a script daily when your personal life was being outed. This is all new to her not so for Booth and she is trying to learn how to deal with it. It was S1 Hodgins. The Hot Dog in the Competition. The writers seem to forget that this is season 7.what do you think happened in seasons 1-6 because theres history with Booth and Brennan! It does, however, support my theory that the person on the show that appears to be least in touch with humanity is, in fact, the greatest. Last year it was almost non-existent and I dont feel it this season as well. Cam spent most of the episode waffling between doing what she felt was right for Finn and taking Carolines advice. There is no spark between B&B and its not because they are finally together its the poor dialog. Wow this episode just seems to have the majority disliking it. It does not matter if you throw sugar all over the top and put a cherry on for garnish (marriage and a baby)the process was far too protracted ruining what had the potential to be perfect. 2. It was like Hannah never existed. When it comes to Brennans character, the writers missed the mark with this one. I am not a fan of Finn and his After all, we both speak science, and thats all thats important in here, right? hick-esque pearls of wisdom. It is as though each episode is written as lets make Brennan clueless and dense for the majority of the episode, but so people wont be mad with us lets throw in a nice scene at the end. Like when Booth was driving her and she realized basically that shed missed her chance, and she wept. Im not going to like BONES just because it happens to be occupying airspace. I think its the show thats missinglacking Many times in the episode, the new intern Finn Abernathy calls Hodgins "Thurston," while Hodgins calls him "Opie." It felt very fake and forced. I know everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I think it would be best if those fans of Bones who are now such haters dont watch the show! Should I just be happy that B&B are together? November 11th, 2011 8:52 pm, Jasper on Youre right what in the world? They replaced the sexual tension with silly banter and the cold, obtuse Brennan again. Sort of how HH felt about fans of the show. I didnt want to be ungrateful, but this episode just sucked. She may be gone, but to forget her impact on a six-year relationship so as not to even discuss her is ridiculous!. For one thing, Booth still seems almostdisgusted by Brennans eating and keeps mentioning it. Look at the mileage the writers could have gotten out of this topic, this discussion point alone. Either they hate Brennan and praise Booth, or vice-versa. Anchor. Perfectly understandable W.T.F.? It was fair at best and I find myself wondering who picked these story lines out as the lead off for season seven. watching her do this made season 6 brennan such a waste. a lil harsh at some points, but you did make a good point about Brennan already having empathy for Booth. Her actions didnt really seem like her, and her reasoning was not very justified. Sarah Curtis- I apologize for not telling you in my first post The case and the addition of Finn (I adore that squintern!) I love the Office and even after marriage and children, Jim and Pam have always had that spark. After all, they created them, you think they could write them true to character. I read a pre-cap of this episode yesterday and the person said they enjoyed this episode more than the premiere. Just. The show has established Booth as being very sensitive to missing moments with Parker since S1. You must recognized when the show does things well and when it doesnt. 3:37. November 12th, 2011 1:03 pm, Laura L on It is nothing to sneeze at. One step forward five steps back. Whatever Finn answers no and that all he did was threaten his abusive stepfather with death shortly before he skipped town. If people are still happy with the show and still get enjoyment out of watching BonesIm just gonna say my bit and let them watch & be happy. I would rather see them not officially be a couple and be in love than whatever the heck is happening so far this season. Hes a psychologist. If you cant make different work and have to create silly conflict, please I would rather prefer the mundane than this inane superficial drama that is in no way organic. I know Tink and Sunny from elsewhere on the Net (*waves), and Im of similar mind to them. I know Hart wants to keep tension, but making Bones a complete moron isnt the way to do it. He questions why he would kill Tina. Think of the effort that went in to it all , think of the writers the actors and the time they spent to make a episode, the story line was weldone and I bet Finn is going to be loved if he is a regular which he most probably will be. Brennan has retrogressed and then some. The show is epic and they need a strong hold for a new character (Finn) hence the accent (Which didnt bother me and im english so if I can deal you should be able to.) I really expected much more from that end scene. November 11th, 2011 2:41 pm, Mary on Star World. I enjoyed the episode. But I liked the new intern. A genuine trailer trash representative would have sounded, if not smart, at least southern. love a Mr.Spock or want to spent the rest of his life with her. They do not vomit that violently, though. Ask questions and download or stream the entire soundtrack on Spotify, YouTube, iTunes, & Amazon. Finn, the new intern: I spent the first 35 mins trying to figure out either who he was, or who he reminded me ofthen it hit mehe looks similar to Jesse Spencer from House, same doughy jaw, non-Oz accent. Emily Erin Deschanel (born October 11, 1976) is an American actress and producer. Hart recognized it and aborted the storyline, but by then more than ten episodes had been shot. Jasper- Yes, that was me. The People. Bones simply nods and gets back to work. Again, the writers are just being real. Yes, they are real issues, but the writers handling of them (i.e. Probably not. Gotta say I found the episode disappointing. @Sunny An eyeopener of a video eh? Its amusing to me, but also can be annoying. It means to be able to discuss the show and delve into it, no matter where it leads you. Sometimes I feel like they are writing two completely different characters! Why have Caroline in this episode only for that reason? She was an outright a##hole, plain and simple. Enough said. November 12th, 2011 1:20 pm, andrea on So we start with the Booth & Brennan pastryroll it out until its perfect. Being a fan of a tv show does not mean you have to praise the show all the time. Following a disagreement over the baby, Booth and Brennan attempt a little role-playing. This no longer cuts it. What are you doing? I guess maybe Brennan reads while Booth watches sports. what i did after watching the episode was to watch season 6 episodes again. With all this talk about the potential tension to be had between them on the religion vs science front, Im not comforted that it will get betterpossibly ever. LOVED Brennan in the scenes where she shared music with the fetus and interacted with Finn. His record has been officially expunged, she explains. Even though the premiere was decent, this season so far has not restored my faith or love for the show. Whats the motivation there? The argument that BB are different loses all its credence when we have crap like this thrown at us. Go to TV by the Numbers for what turns out to be accurate predictions year after year. It seems that the writers had Brennan show more affection to Sully than Cam recommends killing the python, but Hodgins insists that he have time to figure out a way to beat the snakes metabolism rate and get the rat (and phalangeal bone) out without killing it. The case is that of a female eating competitions champion, whose corpse is being eaten from the . I liked the scenes with Caroline and Cam. This was not the worst episode but from what all of the other critics who previewed it, I was expecting much more. Tina bit Brian's finger. Read all Director Dwight H. Little Writers Hart Hanson Kathy Reichs (inspiration) Michael Peterson Stars Emily Deschanel David Boreanaz Ugh yes agreed on about everything. Booths reaction. The team identifies the remains of a competitive-eating champion just days before a contest; a brilliant new squint has trouble fitting in; Booth and Brennan try to put themselves in each other's places after a disagreement about the baby. Crime. I think he is going to be a great addition to the team, and I look forward to more of him.

Booth can not believe he was not informed, and Bones can't believe he is reacting so strongly. I doubt well ever know for sure, but considering HHs public rage when Booth is [rightly] criticized for being a jerk to Brennan, I tend to think hes always been a member of the He-Man Woman Haters club and Dr. Brennan is right where he always intended her to bedefeated and humiliated for daring to be a subversive role model for young women. Back at the lab, Camille, Finn and Bones further examine the body. November 11th, 2011 5:20 pm, TinkonBrink on I thought it was well rounded. Fortunately only six episodes have been shot due to EDs maternity leave. That is so beyond lame even for Brennan that I cant even form words. I agree that Brennan has stepped back a couple of seasons and its annoying to watch! darya strelnikova roger; hutschenreuther abteilung paul mller selb werdenfels; tall racks records demo submission; thema ritter und burgen im kindergarten; il borderline dimentica; faschingskostme mdchen 10 jahre . While I agree this might not be one of the best episodes, it wasnt bad either. I think this played out in the first episode and it did in this one as well. Not a Booth hater, but would really like to see some balance in the show. As a result we get episodes like this one. It felt so occ. Again- inconsistancies are killing this show. But this new Booth, well, he didnt even really have a reaction to finding out he was having a girl anyway. Hannah, I daresay, just because Id like to see some sort of REACTION from these characters, because I have no idea who these pod people are. November 11th, 2011 3:04 pm, Fitzgibbon on Finn and Hodgins then have a bonding moment. Go along with him or leave. Whether its paying for a funeral for someone less fortunate, anonymously donating money toward Wendells scholarship, taking care of Baby Andy, or revealing metaphorical scars on the back with Sweets, she has displayed time and time again that while she might not say the right thing, her heart is mostly in the right place. November 12th, 2011 1:50 am, TinkonBrink on A building superintendent lets herself into a man's apartment, demanding he pay the rent. Potential Suspects and Motives: The apartment lease is under Gerald Sedlicks name, but he has no details on Tina. Honestly, I think you are one of the only honest critics of the show. For the first time in six years of watching Bones, I turned the TV to another channel. I am in agreement with many other here and on the internet- there is a small window of opportunity for the writing to turn around. I am older so I cannot even my husband or son speaking to a woman like that. got lost in the mess of this episode. He then admits he was in Tina's apartment. I actually watched this one because hubby did not want to watch Greys. Brian insists he didn't kill Tina. Did HH & Co. spend so much time and exquisite effort building up a multi-dimensional, beautifully complex female protagonist with the EXPRESS INTENTION of eventually tearing her down? He received more affect from Cam and Hannah than from Brennan. The direction chosen for this show will kill it. I would like to think here that even DB and ED feels that the scripts are not right. Instead, we got mad, impervious and a date-burning ceremony. anyone get the feeling Brennan still keeps Booth at a distance. At the ruined apartment, Bones and Booth examine the body. DB is either not feeling the scenes or is trying to hard. Hodgens is all attitude. Sometimes I dont understand the writers with Brennan. More than ever the cases are being solved in the last three minutes of the show. FOX advertised this episode with To diffuse the tension between them, the couple agrees to experiment by putting themselves in each others shoes. I was intrigued by that possibility, but as we saw, there was no each others happening there. Funny that Brennan can pick up on what is going on with Finn who she just met, but somehow has forgotten about Booth and what he cares about. I am not judging DB here, no hate meant toward him, all I am saying is that there were some very stressful times for them both in the last two years. Thats just ridiculousness. Hodgins and Abernathy will later start a business, on the side, together under the name Opie & Thurston. I agree with you Sarah, the writers need to keep the tension between B&B by resorting to the same tire arguments of seasons past ruins any good scene later in the episode. ), but if Brennan realized all of those things about Booth at this stage in their relationship, earning herself an experiment successful! pat on the head well, that is a shame, because those are things she already knew and she knows so much more.

The interactions with B&B feel forced and strained still. It made me sad, not your wonderful work, but the fact that we have a B&B that cant even give each other that look, that I gotta have you now. look. I meanIm not saying I didnt laugh a few times (for example, when she was driving one handed! I am a great fan of BONES, but that does not mean I cannot be critical, I want a season 8 but I really think they will be pushing it to finish this season and that makes me sad. As for Brennan, its just a classic case of Brennan. DiANNe0985. H. The viewing of the ultrasound. November 11th, 2011 6:42 am, ProfeJMarie (Janet Rundquist) on Thats a good point, Gina. I know all this is new to Brennan, but Booths feelings about family arent. November 14th, 2011 7:09 pm, Jasper on The Hot Dog in the Competition The Jeffersonian team identifies the remains of a competitive-eating champion, just days before the start of the Gluttony Games, a premiere eating competition with a $10,000 prize at stake. Angela told her she was right, and Brennan understood. Maybe some men like women who are so compliant, but others like women who are a bit more of a challenging personality! Caroline, in the meantime, has opened Finn's sealed file and discovers the intern once attacked his stepfather with a knife. Mr. Sedlak? Okay, he seems pissedoh, waitno, hes saying that theyll talk about it later. Later, Hodgins openly makes fun of Finn's dialect. I post here because I agree with Sarah. Submit your music. Crime. But I do agree, and you point out a lot of backwards steps in the evolution of Brennan. Back at the Jeffersonian, Camille welcomes Finn to the lab. Probably because it had to do with foodnot that I am a big fan of hot dogs, unless theyre kosher, but food is food, so. Why? Camille is suddenly very concerned. Bones Season 7 Episode 2 Promo/Preview "The Hot Dog in the Competition". Jasper thanks. I realize he wants tension between them but tonight was just silly IMO. November 13th, 2011 7:02 pm, Jasper on As someone who watches the show primarily for the cases, I liked it that this episode, compared with the premiere, is case-heavy. In fact, it would be more easier to believe that Booth and Sweets are in love. November 12th, 2011 10:42 am, Lindsey on Booth explains Bones is "doing it again", but she doesn't quite understand. November 11th, 2011 6:28 pm, Alexandra on TinkonBrink- If you are the person that posted the videos on YouTube for Bones in years past, THANK YOU, they were freaking fantastic !!!!! He has to face hard questions about his past and morality but soon bonds with initially hostile Hodges. Then to get cheated out of the greatest moment of RST ever in the history of UST? Maybe I am Brennan and just clueless but it seems like I am not alone by reading other fan comments. In my view, to be a fan of anything does not mean positive comments 24/7. Why is he offering up additional, non-relevent info about a colleague up to a suspect? Now that they are together and having a baby, she has closed up a bit more. This is the first appearance of Jeffersonian intern. Sam I agree. Shows. The fans will always have something to gripe about. Do I think maybe the Finn stuff was kind of heavy? People who disagree have a right to post as well. When Bones and Cam are looking at Tina's pelvic bones, Bones measures the distance between and uses that as the basis for Tina's pregnancy. Remember when he finally told her his reasons for wanting to live together-that he wanted to provide a home for their child and not be like his father? All of the angst and heartbreak of last season and we end up with an even more clueless Brennan. He has to face hard questions about his past and morality but soon bonds with initially hostile Hodges. Fangirls will oooh and aaaah over Boreanaz in his shorts or Brennan doing a John Wayne impersonation minutes (in TV world time) after not understanding why the father of her baby is interested at all in the babys genitalia.. HH took away that spark completely last season, has decided that noone needed to see them connect (and I dont mean sexually because they never had a conversation about Hannah or them getting together other than that stupid burning of dates).
