Bones

Another one of my favourites starts a new season on Thursday with a special set in London. Its a slightly more comic version of CSI, well as comical as a programme about crime and death can be

Its one of those series' that has a central theme running through each season, but essentially each episode is a separate story. Well worth a watch :thumbs:

Although they are nothing at all like the books by Kathy Reichs, which normally puts me off things, but in this instance I started watching the programme a while before reading the books, and I actually prefer the series. It helps that Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz are both good actors and bounce well off each other.

I think this is a great series but it's just unbelievable that Bones writes novels. She's such a Data/Mr Spock type of character that I thought originally it was textbooks she wrote. No way is this woman, so disconnected from normal human emotions and so unknowing about popular culture, capable of writing best-selling literature. You need to have your finger on the pulse to do that but the character's naivety and innocence is part of her charm.

The two leads are just brilliant together though and I like the minor characters too.

I do too, I love Hodgins and Angela, the most unlikely couple but they work brilliantly together.

Awww poor Hodgins and Angela , although after seeing Angelas husband, I'm not surprised Hodgins was worried

I was looking forwad to this episode, but then as soon as the horrendous plum in the mouth British accents started it went downhill in my estimations.

Why dont the Americans make the effort to actually find out how people in England talk, I know they're not the sharpest tools in the box, but the BBC have been broadcasting on TV since the 1930's so they've had plenty of opportunity to hear English accents.

I hope Angela and Hodgkins get back together. Its obvious they still have feelings for each other and Hodgkins has just been plain horrible to people since they split.

I liked Michael Baddalucco as Scott Scaratt this week, he played James Beluti in another of my favourites (The Practice, just being re-run on Zone Romantica :thumbs:) and he played both characters the same. I would have liked to see him as a permanent addition.
