My friend recommended me this show, how is it?

I really enjoyed “9-1-1” and my friend immediately recommended me this show. Are there any heads ups I need to know? What are the episodes mainly about? I read the description on Hulu, but really would just like a bit more thorough explanation about the show, and why you guys like the show.

S5 E3

Spoiler

This is one of the rare season 5 episodes that I really love. Its the rate occasion that a murder happened but there was no particular reason for the murder except the money robbery gone wrong. And I like it, because i think these kind of deaths are not shown a lot on the show. There isn't always a reason or some higher thing going on, why someone was murdered. Also I loved how they ended the episode by gingen the parents at least a glimps of being able to understand what their kid did. The storyline was so tragic between your own believes and your love for something. Levi broke his freaking hand, so he would have no reason to go back to music but would come home, back to his believes. The psychological troness that kid must've been in.

Finished the show for the first time

I just need to dump my thoughts somewhere.

I'm not okay. I've heard such mixed things about how the show ended, but I loved it. Those final two episodes literally had me on the edge of my seat. I was shaking at one point.

I have so many thoughts so I'll just leave a jumbled list here of some things I thought were cool.

  • That we had all of the characters left from the beginning of the show being the ones blocked in the lab. I expected Cam to be with them, but she wasn't and I think that's great from a writing standpoint
  • The interns stepping up and finally showcasing their capabilities without Brennen
  • Angela and Hodgins having another kid and both of them being so excited for it.
  • Loved everything about A Day in the Life, what a great episode. No notes
  • The slowmo on Zack and Brennen hugging
  • Booth and Hodgins yelling at each other while hes trying to blow up the wall. You can feel the panic through the screen
  • Everything about the final montage
  • Angela picking up the memorial for Vincent nearly broke me and then Sweet's book did
  • Return of Jasper!!
  • The rubber band ball and Hodgins finally taking off the rubber band on his wrist
  • Booth's speech with Brennen when she was still disoriented melted my heart and then her slowly coming too and correcting his wrist later in the episode had me cheer.
  • Angela going back to her artist roots and illustrating her book
  • Cam coming full circle on her feelings about Foster kids and adopting three boys
  • King of the Lab! (Literally)
  • 4:47

Those are just some things I loved about it, drop your own favorite or least favorite things about the finale if you like. I absolutely loved this show and I'm so glad I found it. Now I just need to fill this void it has left.

Anticlimactic

I’m watching the show for the first time. I’m on season 7 and I’ve gotta say I’m disappointed with how Booth and Bones finally got together. After years of will they won’t they, instead of them finally confessing their feelings for each other, Booth got Bones pregnant OFFSCREEN and now they’re all of a sudden are together with no fan fare.

Sorry if this has been discussed to death, just my thoughts.

Hodgins & Angela: Parenting style

S7:E5: Did anyone else feel like Hodgins and Angela were doing a tad too much when it came to baby M’s sleeping schedule, being overstimulated, and not letting Angela’s dad hang with the baby? More so not letting Angela’s dad hang out with the baby… they made it look like he was irresponsible or just plain untrustworthy. I get the whole first time parent thing, but I don’t know. It just felt like it was too much.

When the series ended could they have come up with a good idea for a spinoff

I’m thinking of something like they did with The Closer. Major Crimes kept the same setting and almost all of the supporting cast and made a show that lasted 6 seasons. What ideas do you have for a spinoff?

Bones connecting with Sweets 😭💙

Search for explicit Fanfic

I am searching for a Bones/Booth Fanfiction, where Booth and Bones visit a House/cabin of Booths friends and make love there. Later they come back for the baptism of the friends child. I forgot the name of it. Does anyone know which specific fanfic i mean?

Interns and their universities?

I don’t think it’s ever explicitly stated (for any of the interns, if memory serves) where they are receiving their PhD’s from/working for their PhD’s. Like, multiple are shown to be working on their dissertations/oral defenses (Daisy and Arastoo are the first to come to mind, I think Wendell was mentioned to be working on his dissertation at one point too) so they have to be affiliated with one of the universities.

Given the number of high caliber universities in D.C. (like Georgetown, George Washington, American to name a handful), i’m just wondering if anyone headcanons any of the interns as receiving their doctorates from any of the D.C. universities

since it’s never explicitly stated where (as far as my memory serves) we go off VIBES XD.

the doctor in the photo

Just rewatched this episode and cried about three times. Definitely top three episode for me,if not my favorite. Bones as a character is so special to me and this episode is so beautiful in the most heart wrenching way. Her pain, her relationships, her greatest fears all come to the surface and leave her in such stark vulnerability. It’s quite literally like she’s looking in a mirror and seeing and struggling with her very identity and beliefs. Funny enough, I cried the hardest when Sweets said “I consider you one of my closest friends, Dr. Brennan.”

I love the small moments of growth and evolution you can see in her throughout the series, but this episode was the “dark night of the soul” if you will. It was a part of her belief system dismantling and her discovering the gravity of what she’s missing out on by protecting herself and you can tell Emily handles her with such care and does a phenomenal job of portraying her deep conflict.

What a time to watch that episode for the first time. "Do you think I wouldn't make a good president because I heard Donald Trump is thinking of running..."

Funniest moment of the show?

For me, it's:

"FBI!"

"US Marshalls!"

"Forensic anthropologist! That's why no gun."

Season4 Ep26

Anyone else think the writing of this episode is just top tier ?? The way the characters of the dream reflect their normal written characters and the puns they use that would slip by if you’re not paying attention is just amazing. Also love to note that Caroline is the only character that stays the same in the dream as she is in real life. Love this episode, has to be in my top 5.

Hodgepodge

I only watched a couple of seasons on my first go so I always thought that Angela and Hodgins were the basic "beauty and the geek" couple.

I definitely don't think that now!

Christine's Baptism

Does Christine's baptism in the The Past in the Present bother anyone else? No Catholic church is going to baptize a baby without god parents present, and as a devout Catholic, Booth would have known that.

just a few thoughts

haven’t rewatched Bones since maybe 2017? and even then i never finished the final season. overall i like all the characters aside from a few issues they’ve had with each other. Hodgens issue with Goodman was weird to me and i think it’s an issue all the “squints” have with ppl that aren’t as sterile with their thinking as they are.

same with Cam and Bones, i also feel like Bones had a “my way or the highway” attitude with Cam initially especially since she was used to a certain level of freedom with Goodman. change wasn’t always her thing. i always liked Cam and liked that she came in assertive when it was clearly difficult to do so. when i watched the show as a kid i had a lot less patience for Bones but now that i’m older i get her more.

Booth and Bones were always the same to me. while i’m not religious at all i did find it annoying that Bones went out of her way to call it a myth or fiction to Booth every chance she got but Booth always bringing it up to someone who clearly doesn’t believe in it was also annoying. also Booth always telling Bones she was going to “change her mind” about having kids the first few seasons was also annoying. love them together tho lol. shipped them from the first episode 😂

Angela remains my favorite character in the whole series. the episode where she comforted the deputy directors daughter who had cancer was always so sweet to me.

just needed to put these thoughts somewhere. aside from my mom i don’t know anyone else who watched this show. 😂😂
