Okay, so I'm finally caught up on television, so I wanted to share my thoughts.
Life:
Okay, so while Tidwell and Reese is growing on me (how can I resist, with scenes like the ones at the shooting range and all their interactions in "Evil... And His Brother Ziggy" which at times had me laughing so hard I couldn't hear the dialogue?) I do have problems with the two hot girl x older, slebby guy pairings in the show.
One is interesting, two is sexist. Where are the hot, young male studs going for older women? And frankly, for much of this season, I was like, 'Tidwell, what they hell does someone as hot as Dani see in someone as slimy as you?" As my mother said: "She must really hate herself right now."
I disliked "Badge Bunny". For one thing, the whole idea of women screwing cops like that pisses me off, I TOTALLY don't believe it would be as sorority-like and jealously-free as they pictured it, and last, I find Charlie's screwing around very unattractive.
On that subject:
I hate the ex-wife and wish the writers would finish whatever arc they're trying to do with her and bring back the lawyer.
The last episode, "Canyon Flowers" was awesome - I loved Squeaky and Tex, and thought Squeaky had:
-an awesome name
-a delicious semi-retro look
-and was played by an actress who nailed the butter wouldn't melt in her mouth attitude.
Bones:
The He In The She: I loved the preacher's son. Like, he was an incredibly hot kid, all clean-punk, had a great voice, and in the end was saying things I agree with. I didn't like the first half of the episode, but it redemeed itself, mainly on the strength of him.
The Skull in the Sculpture: Oh, Angela. Why do you suck so? First of all, Angela used to be my favorite character. Now I think it's Booth. I hate how they broke up Angela and Jack and to rub salt in their writing travesties, now she's in a relationship with a woman? A relationship where she wants to commit? Bitch, no. It has been clear from the first season that Angela is afraid of commitment, and all her conversations with Sweets have only illustrated that fact. Now, I love me some commitment-phobic women, but this is just pissing me off. Angela is NOT the one who deserves an amazingly hot rebound relationship.
And the fact that the writers are saying that Angela never loved Jack (BLATANT LIES) and having her being willing to commit to someone (JACK DESERVED THAT EFFORT! HE UNDERSTOOD YOU AND GAVE YOU LOVE NOTES WITH FUCKING GLOWING FISH, UNGRATEFUL SWINE!)
Frankly, at this point, I don't think Angela deserves Jack who is, arguably, the perfect man.
The Con Man in the Meth Lab: There hasn't been an episode this good since Aliens In A Space Ship. I adored just about everything about it, all the Booth!love, Angela being her straight-shooting self. My favorite part was when, just as the audience is getting terminally frustrated with Brennan, she realizes she's been played and not only says everything we've been thinking, but pushes Booth!lite off his bar stool.
And as someone on fandomsecrets mentioned, the ending line is heartbreaking.
ETA: Additionally, I can't remember which episode it was, but when Sweets ends up telling that one intern that she was fired... that was the only three minutes of his entire air time that I have loved him. I am just a sucker for the 'I thought you didn't love me/where ashamed of me/etc' 'are you crazy?' interaction, and the one we got was a doozy.
