So, about tonight's Bones

[vaznetti]

What the hell? Was that the season finale and I didn't realize it? The station here doesn't do scenes from next week, so I am completely in the dark here. And I don't want to be in the dark!

Booth is going to be all right, right? I mean, obviously, because he is one of the stars. But I am still concerned! And I was all happy! and aren't they cute! and then! argh!

That's all I have. I had other comments, but they have been driven out of my head.

ETA: OK, no. I am not really sure that I liked that, as plot developments go. It felt melodramatic; it felt like a way of forcing the Bones/Booth relationship. And I'm not sure it needed to be forced -- they're already adorable, and they admire each other, and I firmly believe they were heading for weird-but-cute romance territory. But now, he took a bullet for her! and she shot Pam! It just seems like more baggage than they really need. Whether it's going to be used to make some distance between them or bring them together it just seems... I don't know. Over the top.

The trailer for next week actually said "Agent Booth: is he dead... or is he alive?" Hm, let me think. Shut up, Fox preview monkeys.

Also, I saw your post prior to seeing the episode, and I watched it with this vague hope that under the cut it said "OMG I can't believe he sang 'Mandy'!"

You know, the Fox preview monkey's ridiculously overblown "teaser" was actually the point where I realized that Booth was totally going to live.

I was worried there for a second, though, because it was...awfully reminiscent of the thing that broke my heart on Torchwood.

Ha! I didn't even think of that, but it would have been awesome beyond words. Seriously. (I was hoping that Bones' singing would be hysterically bad, actually.)
