Bones Awful Tonight

I duuno I only was able to watch the first 15 minutes or so and was
absolutely bored to tears. The smarmy social worker and the mayor of
the mole people had no hook for me and B and B seemed to have nothing
special going on and so I was outta there. Did the ep get any better or
was it just a real stinker.

Mark Nobles...

It got better. Once Bones got her gun, it was all good.

So the place where the black guy was 'supposed to be' was back where they found him? I'm being vague to not spoil it. But the dialogs and actions made it seem like the dude was going to get a job someplace, like at a nursery or something.

He was still doing his penance for shooting the mother. Not that he did
anything wrong.

My theory is that all good shows have the occasional stinker episode so
when you tell your friends "You have to try this show, you have to try
this show," they can pick THAT EPISODE to try and then ask you what the

fuss was all about.

I'd say that it didn't turn out to be a stinker; it just wasn't
really any good either.

There have been a few eps that were marginal at best, while the rest
have been pretty good. My sister and niece are bigtime "Gilmore Girls"
and "Lost" fans and had never seen "Bones" because it was up against
one or the other of those until last week. She told me she intended to
watch it when "Lost" was slated to be a repeat a while back, and the
ep happened to be the one where they found the woman burned up in her
car and her son missing, culprits turned out to be the defense
contractor her husband was due to testify against for making inferior
body armor. The next day my sister told me she tried to watch it but
it sucked in her opinion, but that ep ranked with this week's as a
kind of disconnect from the rest of the show. It had some decent stuff
in it, with the interplay between Bones and Booth about children and
being a parent, etc., but it would be a hard ep for anyone who wasn't
already familiar with the characters to get interested in. The ep the
following week about the kid who wrote the comic book was much better,
but by then my sister was back to watching "Lost" and couldn't care
less. I'll have to try to get her to watch it again and maybe she'll
catch a good one this time.
