At this rate, Brennan will be pre-season one soon. Ive been through the five stages of grief on season 6 and Im experiencing it all over again. He has to face hard questions about his past and morality but soon bonds with initially hostile Hodges. What am I missing? I stopped watching Bones last year when Brennan suddenly became roboBones. It is nothing to sneeze at. Id be disappointed if Brennen suddenly did not struggle in these new situations. Lifes experience tell those of us who are a bit older (Clearing my throat..) that the ex comes up, is compared to and if she took my sunglasses- argggggghhhhh. He got mad at Bones in the diner in season one over not getting it when it comes to family, making decisions and doing things together. Question: Why would the writers have a pregnant Brennan (and Emily Deschanel) run with all of her might and tackle a suspect to the ground to prove she can see things through Booths point of view? @Caroline type in Bones Paley Center What a Punk, the video is about 4 minutes and a few seconds long. As for this episode overall, I liked it. Sometimes I dont understand the writers with Brennan. The argument that BB are different loses all its credence when we have crap like this thrown at us. I agree that Brennan has stepped back a couple of seasons and its annoying to watch! I didnt like how they downplayed the announcement that it is a girl though. I think he is going to be a great addition to the team, and I look forward to more of him. This is the woman who told Hannah to get him an authentic rotary phone for a housewarming present because it reminded him of his grandfather! Enough said. Probably because it had to do with foodnot that I am a big fan of hot dogs, unless theyre kosher, but food is food, so. We see that she has a basic understanding of Booths character as she has known him over the years, but shes learning as their relationship grows closer. Kinda. Do they understand that the father just found out about the sex of the baby at the same time as Hodgins and the police officer at the scene- who doesnt even know them. She is so much more talented than this and her character is too rich for just this unnecessary role that she played. I really did not understand Hodgins reaction to Finn initially. that was a mouth full! My husband never reads the reviews or posts but even he said they have made Brennan like a robot! The crime was somewhat more interesting than last weeks, it felt like it had a beggining, alittle investigation and an end. November 11th, 2011 3:24 pm, Debbie on Oh, and the scene where Brennan pushed the guy really bugged me. Why? Why are they writing her in this way? She has died when impaled on a large broken terrarium. Yes. Yes, I know that Emily was pregnant, but there were plenty of verbal (and fully-clothed) things that could have been scripted to capture the beauty and magnitude of that moment. Now I am just Ehh if I see the show or not. Fangirls will oooh and aaaah over Boreanaz in his shorts or Brennan doing a John Wayne impersonation minutes (in TV world time) after not understanding why the father of her baby is interested at all in the babys genitalia.. The case didnt make me think I told my mom who it was halfway in and was correct. It gets harder to watch her each week, and it gets harder to watch each week having her learn a lesson so she can be worthy of Booth. (I secretly would have really like seeing 2 different reactions from Brennan re: the snake a jump on Booth-type one at the crime scene and then the calm one in the lab!). The cold, dead corpse of Daisy I know, right), you think shed invite Booth along for the ultrasound, regardless if he prefers Tom Cruise to Rudolph Valentino. Thomas Solver Algorithm Python 3 - Stack Overflow Thanks! Being a huge fan of their relationship, I was hoping for more intimacy and I feel like Brennan has gone back to season 1. This season the criticism is once again pointing out the shows failings. The Scene of the Crime: When a landlady breaks in to one of her tenants apartment for past-due rent, she discovers that the place is trashed. That is so beyond lame even for Brennan that I cant even form words. NOT fully but shes not available to him 100%. Hes a psychologist. I know Tink and Sunny from elsewhere on the Net (*waves), and Im of similar mind to them. Brennan isnt that dumb. Through the power of a living GI Joe doll he can act out whatever you want to call his problem. Yet Booth does mean things and acts like an ass and all is forgiven? Hes gone down in my estimation. I love the show. Now about Finndont ya think the accent and phrases was a bit much not to mention the fact hes only 18! ED met someone and married, and started a family immediately- a sign that she was ready to move into a new area of her life???? Even Brennan would be showing some sort of hope and joy about the future of this child. i dont like her comment, a meeting with the financial advisor is practical, also you have no money.. and the putting herself in booths shoes?? Call Us Today! What DID work for me was the story he told about being able to curb his rage toward his stepfather because of an article hed read by Brennan. A sure fire rating killer, eh? Hopefully before the show ends I can say that it got its spark back. I think Brennan still has a lot of her imperviousness left to lose. I doubt well ever know for sure, but considering HHs public rage when Booth is [rightly] criticized for being a jerk to Brennan, I tend to think hes always been a member of the He-Man Woman Haters club and Dr. Brennan is right where he always intended her to bedefeated and humiliated for daring to be a subversive role model for young women. Nice balance between B&B relationship and case. November 11th, 2011 3:50 am, JaneDoe on Do I think maybe Brennan was past being so clueless that the whole ultrasound thing was really off? Cant they discuss the case like they did in the past. It was her who had the problem and needed to change. LOVED him. November 11th, 2011 10:33 am, samnickmike on I would rather see them not officially be a couple and be in love than whatever the heck is happening so far this season. November 11th, 2011 6:28 pm, Alexandra on February 18th, 2012 3:35 pm. TinkonBrink- If you are the person that posted the videos on YouTube for Bones in years past, THANK YOU, they were freaking fantastic !!!!! So to have him not get all that upset that Brennan doesnt ask him to the ultrasound doesnt jive with me. Just saying. Im happy B&B are together but the writing needs to vastly improve. The sad thing is when Bones dwindles down this season there will probably be an outcry of how the Moonlighting Curse killed the show. There were no scenes like in the past where all the squints were together in the lab. Potential Suspects and Motives: The apartment lease is under Gerald Sedlicks name, but he has no details on Tina. with me to the OBGYN. You know, it make one wonder if we are getty crappy episodes because it pisses HH off that the fans tell him and his script writers that they have blown it with the characters. Brennan & Booth are all about how they conflict. Brennans moment with Finn even demonstrated that she has empathy she knew where he was coming from (and I didnt mind that her questions were direct) I mean, I dont think anyone else would have asked those specific questions. Brennan has retrogressed and then some. I love the journey we are being taken on. B. Did it make me cry? I dont think he did that, by his facial expression. Brennan apologizes and tries to make things right, yet people cant seem to get over all of the bad things she has done. And I was prepared to hate him, but I didnt. anyone get the feeling Brennan still keeps Booth at a distance. Fortunately only six episodes have been shot due to EDs maternity leave. Sorry the whole B & B conflict was just so silly in this episode. Not really. And now, he doesnt even flinch when she dumps the gender of the baby at a crime scene. Booth & Brennan have given rise to a new form of show killerThe Bones Curse This curse is the antithesis of the Moonlighting Curse. It seems the writers think they need to regress the character in order to show character growth, but it wasnt necessary at all, and it would have been a great episode if say Brennan had invited him to the ultrasound and is happy about how happy he is about coming and then at the end show them at the doctors office learning they were having a baby girl. its like she was two different people. They are not real people. Jasper thanks. After all, they created them, you think they could write them true to character. It happen with me, if I am having a bad day at work or did not get the grande cup at Starbucks on the way into the office, then I am off- even a tad cranky. Ugh yes agreed on about everything. Just for laughs? After every bones show, I can read your review and figure out why I feel the way I feel. Probably not. Booth will forget that he has to tell Brennan directly how he feels about something- and not beat around the bush. WE REALLY LOVE BONES! You can rest assured I will not be making any more! Does Booth ever go to the lab or do any scenes with anyone other than Brennan and Sweets? Thats exactly how I fell. November 11th, 2011 4:13 pm, alison tabor on and may i just mention her comment when she and booth was in the diner, discussing about the financial advisor? I miss them. Learn more about the full cast of Bones with news, photos, videos and more at TV Guide. And so contradictory to everything else. I am a great fan of BONES, but that does not mean I cannot be critical, I want a season 8 but I really think they will be pushing it to finish this season and that makes me sad. ***The snake thing was pretty cool. November 11th, 2011 8:20 am, ProfeJMarie (Janet Rundquist) on I know that HH is really playing to the shippers and they are all thrilled that they are together and that is all they seem to care about. November 14th, 2011 2:05 pm, Caroline on But I liked the new intern. What seems important to other people might not be as all important to her.. Fans will not come back if we get four more of what was shown last night. Hopefully well get more on that in the future? In the DC area Booth would get something called locality pay on top of his annual salary. I was with Angela with her why do I even try line to Brennan. Yes, they are real issues, but the writers handling of them (i.e. It was nice to see B&B in the feild again! making Brennan clueless and lacking empathy) is just a put off by doing it week after week. No robots allowed. Booths reaction. Why, all of the bull that Brennan is growing as a person with the help of Booth Not in the manner that it would have went down. Glad you can write what I feel! (I find Sweets endlessly annoying, but in such an instance, he could have actually been useful.) D. Sweets, my dear little duck, referred to the baby as the little girl Brennan is carrying.that just weirded me out. Tom Thon - IMDb People who disagree have a right to post as well. Review by all means but be constructive over the matter. For the first time ever in watching this show, I felt DBs akwardness as an actor. Thanks for the honest review!! !.Bones people,better writing better directing and better dynamics that make sense please.season 1 and 2 were so good,what happened! These names are references to Opie Taylor from The Andy Griffith Show, and Thurston Howell III from Gilligan's Island. Are they out to teach young woman that they cant aspire to be THAT WOMAN without suffering dire consequences, which she must endure if she wants that hunky Alpha Frat Boy to marry her? November 14th, 2011 1:25 pm, Carol C on It was a highly disappointing episode to me and left me really underwhelmed and that is saying A LOT for me, who usually finds quite a bit in an episode to truly enjoy. i dont go and post there because I dont agree with them. Tina is a Turtle that you control with code. them. In saying that, after watching a video of HH at the Paley fest. They are going to make a pie. Um, isnt this the same woman who initially wouldnt hire Zack because of his appearance? Its not like her to be judgmental, and her sanctity of the lab speech toward Cam feltwrong. "Bones" The Hot Dog in the Competition (TV Episode 2011) - IMDb Her claim to fame is that she can eat 65 hot dogs in one sitting, and she once shoved down a 12 inch wiener. But as the case goes on, the team finds out that Tina was looking to bail on a high profile sponsorship. My Verdict: Im not a fan of hot dog eating competitions, so this case was a squeamish no for me all around. what i did after watching the episode was to watch season 6 episodes again. Just dont put down other people because of their views. Meanwhile, Angela is pleased (and grossed out) to find that within the crushed up hot dog bits in Tinas mouth, there is also a sliver of human tissue. I have loved ED and DB as actors who know their craft for a long time now- DB back to his days as Angel. While this episode is certainly not one of the best episodes of the series, for me, this is not one of the worst episodes either. The writers no longer care about character development of Brennan. Okay, okayenough. Booth and Brennan get a "taste" of eating competitively. Really? Even like. Something people dont seem to understand is that they are just mistakes. Instead, I grew to intensely dislike Booth. Yeah. Why have I been wasting my time only to egress? The case is that of a female eating competitions champion, whose corpse is being eaten from the Dixie ex-con Finn Abernathy, a genius, joins the team and impresses even Bones. All in all Im loving the new season, That was a really interesting take on what I really thought was a great episode. Only problem was, she existed enough for Booth to propose to her. Brennan is that clinical and cold regarding about rationalizing why she didnt consider asking Booth to go to the ultrasound? Being a fan of a tv show does not mean you have to praise the show all the time. The smiling Hodgela baby More than ever the cases are being solved in the last three minutes of the show. Probably why the character of Brennan was written the way she was as well. There is no spark between B&B and its not because they are finally together its the poor dialog. Booth concentrates on her rivals for the . Sorry for the BONES history lesson, but in the wake of this weeks episode, I cant help feeling like that growth is nowhere to be found. I can understand him being angry and frustrated but what he said to that fan was completely out of line. Honestly, I began to feel that chemistry dwindling since season 5. Max November 13th, 2011 2:26 pm, Jasper on Its just all the criticisms about the Brain & Heart imbalance that people were complaining about in massive droves last year but that the reviewer didnt really acknowledge before things got this extreme. For once I would love if BB were shown to be a regular couple in love doing regular things just like everyone else. But then, for me, last season for the most part, made no sense. The writers are totally screwing with b&bs relationship and it really sucks. Sarah Curtis- I apologize for not telling you in my first post Snake coming out of the body? Posted by ; words for deep love in other languages; If Hart wanted to make Brennan pregnant because Emily was pregnant IRL, then he should have scripted S6 differently after Hannah left. November 11th, 2011 12:15 am, gina on Its taking all the joy of seeing them together. Theme: its the theme of doing the right thing and doing the easy thing (which is ironic, given that the episode was an easy episode vs a right episode). IMO David Boreanaz saved the embarassing moment for HH, and he is damn lucky he did. The fans will always have something to gripe about. Bones Episode 7.02 The Hot Dog in the Competition The case, the issue between Booth and Brennan, everything was superficial emotionally. In the series premiere, she told Booth she wanted to help him with his cosmic balance sheet. Years later, on a Halloween night, Booth shot and killed their suspect, and she said she was sorry he had to do that. Character integrity and continuity went out the window long ago and now the characters are treated like an Etch A Sketch. The show has established Booth as being very sensitive to missing moments with Parker since S1. I cant argue with a friend on another Bones site that says the six episodes will be followed by a show killing four month break. Also, her comment to Booth about making the connection between her and the victim? I realize he wants tension between them but tonight was just silly IMO. Tina Thomas | Bones Wiki | Fandom Just in case you ever apply for a job with themSince the Jeffersonian works with the FBI and testifies along with them, youd think theyd hold themself to the same standards, for the exact reasons that Caroline stated credibility in court. Look how she was with Finn and how she was in that scene with the music and putting the ear plugs to her belly. Now would it have killed the writers to just give a wonderful sweet moment between BB going for an ultrasound and finding out the gender of their baby? Thats just ridiculousness. That was nice, because it took my mind off how horrible the episode was. A review needs highs and lows not just judgement on everything. He has to face hard questions about his past and morality but soon bonds with initially hostile Hodges. Brennan IS literal, but this putting herself in Booths shoes stuff was seriously LITERAL. Feet on the Beach bothered me more, I think. eegyvudluk pootoogook / stacey and dave forsey net worth / who played tina the python'' thomas on bones. WRONG. Site Map | About GMMR | Contact Us | Comment and Privacy Policy (Please Read) | Copyright 2010-2011 I would also be considered a hater by Andrea, and Im all right with that. The Bones writers mess up all the time Id learned to let things like that go and just try to enjoy the show. And if HH were a man like Booth and some uppity woman tried to lead him around on a string, well, hed show her what-for, yessirree. baby. The Hodgins and Finn scenes were good too. With Frayne Rosanoff, Robert Englund, Casper Van Dien, William Zabka. It was like Hannah never existed. For the first time in six years of watching Bones, I turned the TV to another channel. Episode Details & Credits. Again- the relationship can be explored in depth and in an adult way with the Bones and Booth we have learned about and watched grow over six seasons. When Hannah left, we had roughly half a season that could have been spent watching B&B deal with the impact of Hannah and grow closer to each other. I thought it was a good episode. I did, however, hate Angela. The UV lights provide the same function for snakes as they do for us humans - catalyzing the formation of Vitamin D3 for bone and calcium metabolism. I meant that to be directed at you.again. 1.555.555.555 | balboa productions net worth. I agree its hard to watch Brennen have to work to understand Booth on this level, but it is a true representation. I wonder if in reality any man no matter how much he may care for someone Dixie ex-con Finn Abernathy, a genius, joins the team and impresses even Bones. Sorry for the rant. Heh I was totally on the other end of the spectrum. Since when? Maybe I am Brennan and just clueless but it seems like I am not alone by reading other fan comments. Brennan and Booths interactions were my least favorite parts of this episode. I think Ive already mentioned enough of these, so I wont add more. I liked the Finn-Brennan interactions. ACT THREE. and Booth screaming at her? *****Hodgins referred to himself as an ass hat (Go watch his response to andrea on u-tube video Paley center 2011.) Brennan isnt thoughtless. Ill take that. November 12th, 2011 10:42 am, Lindsey on over the last 6 years. She has more empathy than most people I know. Which then led me to feel really, really confused (and annoyed). When that Brennan bowling down the suspect scene happened I just scratched my head and was like, what the heck!? Maybe the new villian will add something positive to the show and pull the characters together. What are your thoughts on Finn, and the way the team reacted to him? In my view, to be a fan of anything does not mean positive comments 24/7. Then to get cheated out of the greatest moment of RST ever in the history of UST? Because clearly, from viewing that video, the man has problems. They dont have that natural feeling like they did in the past. Okay, he seems pissedoh, waitno, hes saying that theyll talk about it later. I am not saying that to flinging mental health lightly. You have to replace the sexual tension with something else (his words not mine). But I do agree, and you point out a lot of backwards steps in the evolution of Brennan. Dixie ex-con Finn Abernathy, a genius, joins the team and impresses even Bones. Hannah, I daresay, just because Id like to see some sort of REACTION from these characters, because I have no idea who these pod people are. Please, people, act like you love each other. November 13th, 2011 11:19 am, eridapo on Is it too hard for the writers to write an episode that leaves us feeling all warm and fuzzy like earlier and really makes the chemistry between DB and ED shine? November 11th, 2011 6:41 pm, Sarah Maria ( UK) on We now have Opie and Thurston although Finns extreme Southern euphemisms were kind of wearing on me. I have a hard time picturing Brennan being so careless about the ultrasound we have had examples in the past that would allow us to believe otherwise, and the reasoning was extremely sloppy. except I loved the fact that Hodgins loved the snake, and I agreed with him in that it was cute (I knew one that I named Houle (pronounced howl, predecessor to the word owl) that was a snuggler and extremely friendly). But well in the end HH gets what he wants. Booth was angry and left Brennan one option. Girl, boy, sack of potatoes, shrug, whatever. Im sorry that happened to you. Over a year later, she sat at his bedside when he suffered from a coma. Im a school psychologist and I have worked with students with Aspergers disorder. Hey, Worst BONES Scene EverHannah and her sunglasses called they want their title back. Im sorry Gina, but after six years we need to see something more. Why is he offering up additional, non-relevent info about a colleague up to a suspect? Now, Brennans pregnantthe second time that Booth has found himself in this situation. I didnt want to be ungrateful, but this episode just sucked. It wasnt needed and kind of insulting to the character. PLEASE DONT SCREW IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!! . What a big mistake since Greys was great IMO. He, however, did not seem to care what he said. I agree with the honest review, exactly how I saw the episode, very poor with only 2 stars, the snake and the ultrasound picture. Other than the end scene which was cute, I really thought the rest was just silly. Erased. Which right now is making me feel pretty glad. I never thought Id think that Booth seemed happier with Hannah last year than he does with Brennan this year, but I do. The wheels have come off of the Bones car. Look at the personal lives of DB and ED- things have changed and moral lines were toed. It was fair at best and I find myself wondering who picked these story lines out as the lead off for season seven. It kind of explains Booth last season and how he was written. I somehow magically know how much FBI agents with say about 15 years on make per year. I used to make the Bones vids. In the past, Brennan was portrayed as deliberately keeping a wall around her only letting in those she trusted, when she wished. Jasper, I couldnt find the specific video at Paley you were referring to I get too many hits. Especially the nature of itand HOW, after the indeed, literal walking in his shoes, did she figure out that she should have included Booth in things? @Sunny An eyeopener of a video eh? I have to agree with you, Gina. The show is epic and they need a strong hold for a new character (Finn) hence the accent (Which didnt bother me and im english so if I can deal you should be able to.) Sothis episode, The Hot Dog in the Competition, had a lot of disgusting, gag-worthy moments. I. Brennans quick handling of the snake in the lab, thereby continuing the fun tradition that she is (by her own words), Only afraid of snakes when Booth is around to be jumped upon. Wooo! Opie is a child who is usually taught a lesson in each episode, sometimes getting into trouble, but always meaning well. Not the way that I wanted to. a. the baby is OK November 11th, 2011 3:04 pm, Fitzgibbon on What was the point of season 6 and the ordeal Brennan and Booth went through if in the end Brennan still fails to recognized how her words hurt Booth. The negative reaction from critics and fans was overwhelming and ratings suffered. This is not worth it. So the federal government knows exactly what youve done and what kind of person you are. Many times in the episode, the new intern Finn Abernathy calls Hodgins "Thurston," while Hodgins calls him "Opie." I dont get this. But this new Booth, well, he didnt even really have a reaction to finding out he was having a girl anyway. Seeing Booth and Brennan just cohabitating and raising a baby together are not enough. The case is that of a female eating competitions champion, whose corpse is being eaten from the inside by a live snake. Bones is officailly on the Bubble- in US TV language they have a good chance of not being renewed next year. Gotta say I found the episode disappointing. This is becoming a farce already. It seems that the creative minds of Bones are now focusing on The Finder. Even though the premiere was decent, this season so far has not restored my faith or love for the show. That landlady is cold! They are just as flawed as the rest of us, and holding them up on this pedestal doesnt help. The show is so full of walking cliches. Instead, we got mad, impervious and a date-burning ceremony. I know that Sarah has to watch and review Bones-but hopefully her negativity isnt catching. Brennan knows Booth like the back of her hand and I am not seeing any of this displayed in season 7. For too long have they kept the main leads apart and after the disaster that was season 6 we still get this miserable writing. It is as though each episode is written as lets make Brennan clueless and dense for the majority of the episode, but so people wont be mad with us lets throw in a nice scene at the end. Brennan does not love Booth, she does not know him at all and now that she has a bit of him,well thats it and Booth is frustrated, playing with 2 dice,feeling tired and the interaction between them is forced, not like it used to be. The hat, the hair, the accent, is all so trite. Hey, what do you know, I actually followed the case this time! Your review is spot on. I think sometimes there are scenes that never make it to the final cut that may make things appear more fluid, I wonder if that happened here. As for B & B. The case and the addition of Finn (I adore that squintern!) A. Im still not convinced that Booth and Brennan are in love. It just seems like they write Brennan more for humor or make her character just be so dense to cause tension and drama. (I found it quite annoying when Booth and Hannah were constantly kissing, etc). Especially when she tackled that dude. And it doesn't seem to bother anybody else here how I talk. Insightful recap, and I thank you for pointing out things Ive been trying not to dwell on. November 13th, 2011 6:08 pm, Olivia on They have to figure out who would want Tina dead and how she died. Now no matter what the heck you fill that pie with its gonna come out of the oven with the most dry and brittle pastry imaginable. I love the show obviously and the character of Brennan will forever be my favorite, so its very bothersome when they sloppily write her character as learning empathy for the first time. November 11th, 2011 12:42 am, eridapo on Brennan (Ive never earned a B in my life!) Please, Bones powers that be, send reinforcements, in the form of: It felt so occ. Too much Booth & Sweets (yuck!). I dont see how, at all, that would have taught her the empathy she already clearly has. What he shows the viewers are these silly conversations that they have over their conflicts. However, I completely agree with you on the whole not liking how he affected the other characters thing and the scenes with him in it were heavy-handed.
