Bones 1x01 - 1x05
Nov. 11th, 2008 10:29 pmI interviewed with Planned Parenthood today. Please, please hire me! Their building had a big black gate running all around it, and inside they ate hot tamale candies. Please hire me!
Bones
How did I go so long without watching this show? I'm suddenly addicted! It's a crime serial, except it's not boring. It's actually charming, and amusing, and I like the side characters. It makes me want to get a doctorate and join the smart people club. Also, DB looks thinner and hotter than he did for the last two seasons of Angel, His giant neck is...not so giant. And he and Bones have chemistry! I think her name is Brenner, but in my head I call her Bones.
I want a cool, abiguosouly intimidating nickname like 'Bones'. Except, in my current line of work, the equivalent would be 'Clipboard', which is unlikely to intimidate anyone who zips their own pants in the morning.
Potential shipping: Yep, I'm shipping B/B. I like how that works whether you mean Brenner or Bones. Anyway, It's hard not to ship them. They smoulder! That's actually the most chemistry I've seen DB have with anyone on screen since Angel/Darla. It's like, with Booth's character, DB gets to have all the sexy allure of Angelus, but instead he fights crime. And makes not-so-vague allusions to assassinating people with a sniper rifle. (That need to make amends for past killings...that's pretty familiar, though.) As it is, I'm wondering how many people he actiually would have shot, in the army. I mean, I saw Jarhead. The whole movie was about the Marine snipers waiting to make even one kill shot. I imagine it's probably like cops on tv drawing their guns all the time, when real life cops do it only a few times in their careers.
Anyway, I'm onto episode 6. This is great fun. I will want to read some fic after I marathon to current seasons. Still, if anyone has any recs, do pass them along. With timeline-appropriate warnings, please.

(And her name is Temperance Brennan. No wonder Booth calls her Bones!)
