Bones: Grotesque, Bittersweet, and Quirky


Bones is a great show! On Fox, it stars Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz as Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan and Special Agent Seeley Booth. She studies the skeletal remains of victims as a forensic anthropologist while he investigates the motives for murder. Together, they solve the mysterious murders that are brought to the Jeffersonian, along with help from the scientific team: Angela, Zack, Hodgins, Dr. Sweets, and Cam. Quirky, full of humor, bittersweet romantic moments, and a little grotesque at times, this show is a unique play on forensics and murder. A show you definitely don't want to miss.

A Night in the Bones Museum


When a mummy is found charred and chained to a chain link fence, Bones is fascinated by the archeological find. It is a mummy called the "Bleeding Heart" and something is missing from the gaping chest cavity. When the Egyptian government gets involved, the investigation is limited as they demand the return of their famous mummy.

On a romantic note, Bones is invited on a date with Booth's supervisor, and of course he is upset by this prospect. Bones responds, "It's a physical attraction," and he goes crazier as she actually goes out for dinner and drinks.

But of course she is called away: a mummy has been stolen, a woman murdered, and something is missing from that mummy's "bleeding heart" that will break the case wide open...

The episode "A Night in the Bones Museum" is a great episode that shows depth towards Bones and Booth's relationship. When will they finally get together? What mystery will they solve working side by side? The relationship between "squint" and FBI agent is intriguing and addicting. Bones is definitely a show you cannot miss.
