Please don’t get me wrong. I know that the title of this post my make it seem like I don’t like the show Bones, or perhaps that I don’t like Booth and Brennan. In fact, I am a big fan of the show. I was so upset by Zack’s guilt at the end of last […]
(Season 2, Episode 11 – “The Bath Item Gift Hypothesis”) Hey, I didn’t know Leonard’s parents were in New Jersey. Has he mentioned this before? I wonder where in New Jersey. Oh, wait.

(Season 17, Episode 14 – “Say Goodbye to Gabon” – Season Finale) I’ll tell you here that things progressed about as you would have expected from last week’s elimination of Crystal … for awhile.
