It’s been nearly a year since I’ve heard anything! Did they decide not to do it? I know it was delayed cause of the strike.
Im rewatching the Pelant episode where he makes Hodgins choose between his money and the school chilsren. Do we really belive the Hodgins' password to his billions of dollars is "Salad"? I mean with all the conspiracy theories and his wife being a computer genius how is this possible?
Just rewatched the episode where Booths mom shows up. I really don’t like her attitude. It’s like she’s pretending to be sorry but she actually isn’t. She hardly even apologizes. Even when she does apologize she says “I’m gonna forgive myself cause I have a little time left and I deserve to be happy” or something like that. I mean she left and never even visited, and I get that she was abused but I dont understand why she couldn’t take her kids, or at least come visit when they were living with their grandpa. Or at the VERY LEAST call and keep in touch. Max had to fight so hard to be apart of Brennans life, for so long. She does deserve to be happy, but that’s a terrible apology to your son who you left so he could abused my his father. Ultimately I know they were both victims of abuse but she was acting like she’s a victim for her son getting upset that she left to raise someone else’s children and completely forgot about her own kids. She says “this was a mistake” as soon as Booth gets upset. It’s like she genuinely doesn’t feel bad about abandoning him, like he’s not allowed to feel how he does. Idk it just bothered me.
Like enough for the Crinmals to go free and not end up in jail
I saw the title of the video and immediately knew the answer thanks to Bones 😁
It's been a while since I've watched through it entirely but, Booth said she couldn't get a gun due to being charged with a felony. How the heck did she have a gun in the later seasons? Did I miss something, guys?
how is it fair that cam IMMEDIATELY fired wendell because he was using cannabis medicinally however when fuentes was SMUGGLING drugs out of the jeffersonian she was like omgggg don't go 🥺🥺
i hate cam. sorry guys
I should preface this by saying that I do know what they were going for here when they had Booth draw the cards Death and Temperance.
However, I do tarot myself and Death doesn't always mean that someone is going to die. It's a stand-in for change. Death just means that somethings have to die in order to be reborn. And the "die" doesn't mean literally die.
As for Temperance... yeah, I get that it's her name. But the card itself can represent taking the middle path, patience, and finding meaning.
If you want to take the actual card meanings into account, I believe that Avalon's cards predicted the lab explosion. Death represented the lab being blown up and then being rebuilt and Temperance represented the Squints using that as an opportunity to turn it into something positive and find meaning in it. Hodgins even says "Everything changes."
Hodgins is on Chicago Med right now! I've not seen him on anything since bones
Maybe Christine would take over her mom’s role as forensic anthropologist solving murders or she could not be interested in the role and be doing something completely different but she gets into it by some unfortunate happenstance. There could be so many fun nods to Bones in the spinoff!
For me its when children are involved
The saddest is the Innocence lost (season 8, episode 18). I always feel I shouldnt watch the episode on rewatches, as its so truly sad and so disturbing that it makes me extremely upset, because its real, but I have always rewatched it. >!(the child soldiers and their fate is so sad and real, and when the guy who survived said how one little kid wanted to run away, they caught him, cut off his legs and thrown him in the bushes.... or the one who didnt want to shoot his teacher so they cut off his hand) !<thats unbearable.
Also, the Gravedigger >!to bury those little kids, the brothers. !<
Okay. This is clearly disregarding a lot of information about the show itself as well as the filming but I’ve been rewatching the show and I’m at the start of S2 where Cam gets introduced and man. A line that was said in “the Boy in the Shroud” got me thinking.
Zach alluded to not knowing what a corpse would really look like without being just bones (I’m being delicate here but we know what I’m saying) and that the experience with Cam was the first time he saw this up close. He was squeamish. If the show had not included someone like Cam, would he have ever felt comfortable enough to even claim to do what he did later on? It’s been a while since I’ve done a full rewatch so roast me if I’m off base but I feel like there was so much set up for him to get there that no one could have seen until it was too late
I’m rewatching bones for like the thousandth time, I’m on season 4 rn has anyone else noticed that in season 4 ep 7-8 the same kid finds the body in the beginning of the episode, it starts in ep7 with him smoking a joint and fishing then finding it. And in 8 he’s drunk trying to steal car parts for his dad. Has anyone else seen this or do I just think all gingers think alike?
i’m rewatching season one but i feel like booth and brennan argue more often or like are angrier at each other then i remember? like i remembered them being the way they always are but for some reason they seem to hate each other until like some random episode at the end of season 1
Not sure if this is too niche but is anyone else here a 911/Lone Star fan? It's so fun for me to see so many major/minor characters from the show pop up as extras on Bones! Fun little Easter eggs for me lol. E.g. Debra Christofferson, Benito Martinez, Roxana Brusso.
I wonder if any more of them show up in later seasons (since I'm only on S4) :)
Edit: (adding more actors/actresses as I unlock them lol)
Aisha Hinds AND Gina Torres in one episode?! Lucky!
Chad Lowe!
Think I might be going nuts because I swear at the end when I originally watched Jack got up and walked. That did not happen this time. Did I imagine that ending? I could also swear all the old interns were there to say goodbye as well.
I know the show portrays Daisy as annoying and over-enthusiastic, but I actually love her. She’s funny and sweet, and so loyal. I love the way she stands up for Sweets all the time. She really cares about the people around her. Of course she can be a little annoying, but I think the good outweighs the bad.
Anyone else despise this guy? I get he was upset but the comments he was making throughout the episode towards other agents and Dr. Brennan were disturbing
So excited she’s on this show. She is an underrated actress. Her character on this show is a bit odd. Even for this show
Now I'm only on Season 3, so I don't know how things end up being in later seasons, but as of now I have to say Tempe is so so lucky to have Angela as her best friend. The particular scene that makes me say this is when Angela prefers to be incarcerated instead of testifying against Max. What she says to Bones while they're in the holding cell is such a genuine display of friendship, she is truly the best girl to me.
I already looked up their friendship in this community but one of the top posts said that these two aren't compatible friends. I disagree, at least from what I'm seeing up til S3. Angela's free spirit is the perfect complement to Tempe's rational mind. They balance each other out. Others were also saying that Tempe doesn't reciprocate the friendship, but might I remind you she dropped everything to fly to the Mojave desert the moment Angela called about her boyfriend (in S1). Tempe just doesn't express or understand emotions as well as Ange, but if you're avidly watching the series I'd assume you already knew that.
All that to say, I love Angela! She's often the most humanizing element of any episode amid all the science and technology and jargon, the breath of fresh air that she is. Plus she's the best girl friend Tempe could have had. <3
Edit: The previous posts I've read about Angela mentioned a lotta hate for her here so I should've seen it coming, but seeing the downvotes on this appreciation post is still surprising to me lol welp
I'm rewatching Bones from the start and just started Season 3 - I know that during this season it turns out Zack tampered with some of the evidence from some of the cases, but I did an internet search and couldn't find a list of what Zack did. I thought it would be interesting to watch the episodes knowing exactly what he fabricated/planted.
Does anyone know where I can find a list/overview of which cases and evidence Zack tampers with in Season 3?
has anyone noticed this?
i'm currently on s9, e24 and while brennan is overwhelmed at the courthouse with booth she starts saying anthropologic facts similar to how vincent nigel murray would say facts >!whenever he was under pressure or stressed!<
i could be wrong, however wanted to make a post since it seemed like a cute quirk she does
i've looked everywhere online however i can't seem to find it.
i watched bones when i was young maybe 4 or 5? i remember a lot of specific episodes and here i am 14 years later watching it again. the details i can remember are: •the main suspects area was an office or bank? i think brennan was looking at a pen as a murder weapon •the cause of death was one of these ^ (above) •at the end of the episode when bones realized that's how the victim died she examined the inside for blood and booth looked over and grabbed her. probably went "woah! bones! what are you doing??"
What are your thoughts on Cam and Booth dating during season 2? I honestly don’t really like it, I feel like it takes away from bones and booths relationship development (even though they were NOT ready to date in S2). Maybe I’m just such a fan of booth and bones I don’t like that another major character dated him. Also Can came in really controlling season 2, I get the tempered down a lot. But still…
when they sing lime in da coconut at Vincent and sweets funeral
So I kinda feel like a very huge detail that Jack Hodgins should have brought up about the Jeffersonian Lab during the final event, where the lab has a ton of bombs planted, was the secret pathway used in Season 5 Episode 12 from the main lab area, just off the main platform, in a janitor closet, that lead underground to the basement, should have been used to escape, but end up buried down there, bringing back memories of the Grave Digger Trama, and maybe a different way to get rescued or escape, bringing back to some of the older seasons again in a cool way.
The only downside is the one person who would have KNOWN first hand about the exacts about the hidden passage way and would not have been in the Jeffersonian during the explosion, was killed, being Sweets.
