Liveblogging season four, episode four of Bones.
20:02: Is Sweets the only psychiatrist in DC or something?
20:11: I sort of missed the whole son / author impersonator thing. What?
20:12: “She is wicked literal.” Agreed.
20:20: Oh Temperance, you don’t even know when you’re sexually harassing your interns.
20:22: I understand that they all love Zach and shit, but seriously, he blew up his own hands and murdered a man with a knife. That is very good reason not to be all buddy buddy anymore.
20:25: Really, a confession in the first 25 minutes? There is something else going on here.
20:32: Aww his name is Wendell!
20:40: Well now at least I understand the situation with the double, even if I had to suffer through a guy in a ski cap and a bad haircut to do it.
20:44: I thought that OCD guy confessed to killing him? Not that I believed him, but where did he go?
20:49: I like Wendell, even if he is a shallow white working class stereotype! I hope he sticks around.
20:51: Zach stole Sweets’s card to escape the insane asylum. So can we report him to the police now? And never, ever see him again? Really, there’s enough obsessively logical for one show already.
20:53: No Wendell, don’t go, we love you!
20:54: I still protest this unequivocal Zach love. He killed a man and doesn’t regret it!
20:56: Oh, apparently he didn’t kill anyone. Well that makes him marginally more sympathetic.
20:57: Wait, what? The master didn’t commit the murder but someone else did and then the master killed that someone else and he’s still out there? This flies in the face of last season! I object! Also that Gormagon thing went on way too long, I’d really like to drop it (and Zach).
Meh, a lackluster episode. If there hadn’t beeing the Deus ex Machina of Zach and all this weird buddy-buddyness with a guy they thought was a cold-blooded killer it would have been much better. I understand the actor needs to make money and it is great for him and all, but I would rather he just get locked up and we never hear from him again. Or, you know, he not be written as a redundancy of Temperance.
20:01: Booth and his kid are adorable. Even when they find severed fingers.
20:02: “I’d say ‘King of the Lab’, but that just… depresses me.” Awwww.
20:04: I love that Bones is talking to the (o)possum in a baby voice as she says ’shoo shoo!’.
20:09: Did he just say dander-sized flakes of bull penis?
20:12: Who knew Bones was an animal person? Opossums, and now adorable tiny dogs, praised with “He’s so compact!” said with the same glee as “He’s so cute!”
20:20: I’m pretty sure doggy teeth hurt even if you don’t file them down – and they’re scary if you don’t, too.
20:23: “Although for some reason that I still do not understand I kept staging my own death.” But you are totally fine, Bones, really you are.
20:31: That guy looks like a mini Seth Green. Remember when Seth Green was big? Yeah, me neither.
20:35: When the FBI is in a bind, who do they call? CEASAR MILAN.
20:41: I think even Ceasar will admit that his skills don’t work like that. But still, pretty cool.
20:45: Poor Hodgins, his BFF turns out to be a serial killer and his fiance breaks it off with him. It has been really rough.
20:48: Somehow I find myself as disgusted by the owners who brought their dog in to get euthanized because they “didn’t know he would get so big” as much as the men running the dog fighting ring. Where is the respect for and value of animals in our culture? Oh wait, people eat beef with shit in it. We have none.
Commercial: And now this Animal Rescue Association is making me tear up. God, people suck.
20:56: Bones loved that dog, how could you put him down without at least warning her? ;_; She loves so few things that aren’t… bones!
That was really, really sad.
I like to think the longer I live in DC the more I’ll recognize from this show – but alas, it’s all shots of the inside of the Jeffersonian and the inside of a diner, so I’m drawing a blank. Still, quality entertainment!
20:01: Let this be a lesson to all of us: Don’t smoke in the outhouse. Also, despite the springboard explosion and fiery underpants, remember children: explosions aren’t fun.
20:02: I sort of love Temperance for continuously being so unabashed about, you know, having sex with dudes. And doing so without ever coming off as a slut. Too bad she’s a little too loopy to be a real role model. But we still love her!
20:03: “Your aversion to feces is irrational!” Don’t we all need to hear that more often.
20:07: God I love Sweets. First off, he’s the adorable young male protagonist of Freaks and Geeks. Second, he’s the sidekick to Booth’s soft science all-heart approach, only he’s infiltrated the lab! It’s good times all around.
20:08: Hey, Temperance’s new assistant is Carla Gallo! She was Libby on Carnivale, and perhaps more famously “The Period Girl” from Superbad. Hey, you take what you can get.
20:12: I think that’s the best description of the Ten Commandments I’ve ever heard.
20:14: The familiar faces continue! Elizabeth Lackey, who was Janice Parkman (aka “that cop’s wife”) on Heroes.
20:21: Oh god she’s a Brennan superfan! “I mean, wouldn’t it be fun if I were here forever?”
20:24: Speaking of Brennan superfans: Seriously Booth, stop stalking her. Also, apparently men cannot like Coldplay? TV says it, it must be true.
20:26: “Case in point, deep sea welder, botanist.” “…what, did they go into a bar?” Thank you Sweets for mocking the absurdity of your own show. That’s what makes it ok.
20:34: “Guys like to think they’re the only ones allowed to sleep with more than one person.” This show makes it so hard to turn off the feminism! I’m sorry I’ll try.
20:37: That man is one serious stalker. I like how it comes across as endearing instead of creepy. And by like I mean ‘am deeply concerned’.
20:46: Tongue stud owww.
20:53: Ahahaha Sweets is in love.
20:55: Poor Temperance, finding her hyper-logic doesn’t float in the real world once more. But reversed gender roles! A cheating woman and spurned men contrasted with the cheating men and spurned women of the “Busted” show-within-a-show. It’s so nice to see that the Bones writers think.
20:57: “Since the murder I’ve been considering the argument for monogamy.” Temperance is nothing if not open-minded to reasonable arguments.
20:58: Dear watchers: Booth and Temperance are the someones for each other, they only have to see it. In case you missed the subtle and unintended suggestion of Booth’s mini-logue.
20:59: Aw Sweets needs a hug! From, apparently, fired assistant Daisy.
OH MY GOD GUYS CESAR MILAN IS ON THE NEXT BONES. That is must-see TV right there. Though the premiere was somewhat lackluster and the 2 hours were wholly unnecessary, I’m glad to see they’re stepping it up.
