Amazing show September 5, 2010
H. Whitaker (Cali)
Such an amazing show.
I am not a tv watcher, But I LOVE this show.
I have watched it since it started, And I have loved every episode.
Each season it gets better.
A critical but ignored strength of this amazing show August 30, 2010
Olive Oyl (Mississippi)
I absolutely love this show. It might be the most amazingly well-crafted t.v. show ever, along many dimensions. I agree with all of the positive comments of other reviewers. I don't have one negative comment to make, even though, I, too, miss Zach and thought he was a terrific character, well-acted. I even think the Daisy character provides an important role in the balance of the cast, as long as she is not there all the time. No show is complete without little jabs from a distracting annoyance. (Remember Eddie Haskell on "Leave it to Beaver?")
On the other hand, EVERY review that I read left out what, to me, may be the most important dimension of the show. The unspeakable gore and horrifying plots would be meaningless and perhaps sadistic if regarded as entertainment alone. The scientists, each using his or her unique area of expertise, employ the most subtle of clues to recreate an individual's identity and dignity. In addition, often the victim's family and friends are able to obtain closure on the person's disappearance and death. It is a story with a noble theme.
The acting, the characters, the group and individual dynamics, the continuing subplots, and the humor are absolutely extraordinary. Those attributes would be seriously compromised almost to the point of superficiality, however, without the serious outcome of the lab's work. The lab's skill and commitment provide the viewer with the powerful experience of redemption as the horror becomes gradually transformed into dignity. To me, that element is the absolute core of the series. Everything else is built around it.
I can't wait until Season 5 is available and until Season 6 begins.

This is not a review on the dvd as it doesn't come out until Oct. I got my husband hooked as we watched all Bones dvd series and hated when season 4 ended. i had watched most on tv except some years they kept moving it around and I lost track of when it was on. that said i could watch episodes over and over. Season 5, I watched all episodes on tv. This is mostly comments on the Booth and Bones relationship. All the episodes before the big break were excellent and satisfying. David especially has absolutely portrayed spot on Booth's love for Temperance. (have loved David B. since Angel--he has grown so much as an actor). All these episodes built up to the fact that Booth and Bones were in love. Booth knew it. It was a relief when Sweets had Booth admit it. On the other hand, Bones was given subtle hints and you thought she was going to "get" it. The episode with Ralph Waite as Booth's grandfather was very touching and enjoyable. Now after the break, the first episode after was so boring I thought they lost the momentum built up before the break (sorry dont know the name) and the episode telling how they first met---i thought it was bs. it was done to show booth and bones were attracted to each other at the beginning--- that's not what i remember from season 1. I personally did not like it-- too exaggerated and extreme -- esp Angela.s character. But thankfully after that the rest of the episodes were excellent. Except for one thing-----Tempe should have said more to Booth about her feelings. I agree with one poster who said this is wearing thin. You have to get the characters together and use your writing skill to keep the show as good as it is now. You can't keep going with their friendship knowing that Booth is so in love with Tempe and she is too afraid to have that even though we all know she loves him. It won't work. I hope season 6 recognizes this.
I too find Daisy annoying--do not know why Sweets and Daisy getting engaged was a big deal. it wasn't.
I too want Zach back. He was part of that team. And I'm glad they brought back Ryan O'Neal as Tempe's dad for a few episodes---love that character.
