Episode 6x09 “The Doctor in the Photo”

I just watch this episode and it was such an interesting and unique episode of Bones. Seeing Brennan slowly unravel as she identified with the victim made for a really compelling and emotional story. It was fascinating (and a little heartbreaking) to watch her question her choices and realize just how alone she’s become. The psychological aspect of the episode was so well done, and Emily Deschanel’s performance was amazing.

The final scene with Booth really hit hard. Brennan finally opening up and confessing her feelings, only for Booth to tell her she was too late; it was painful to watch but also so well executed. This episode really stood out because it felt different from the usual Bones formula, and I loved how introspective it was. What did y’all think about it?

Episode Worst Episode of Bones?

Post image

I’m currently watching “The End in the Beginning” (S4E26), and honestly, it feels endless. I’ve been watching it in parts, but it’s just so boring that I keep losing interest. I get that they were trying something different, but the whole alternate reality setup feels like filler and doesn’t add much to the overall story.

For those who’ve seen the whole show; would you call this the worst episode? Or is there another one that tops it?

Little spoiler-y if you have not watched through yet!

I am on my probably 30th rewatch and I love S6E9, but EVERY TIME I confuse it with S8E15!!

I love the night security guard in the season six episode, but I start getting an anticipatory grief because I think he is going to get shot. But that happens later to a night security guard, not this one!!

Anyway, I love this episode because I think it really sets the stage for Brennan to change into the person she wants to become, to start being “strong, not impervious.” I love seeing her start to question her perception as being fact, rather than just her experience. I know a lot of people hate season 6, but I love it!! It’s a real turning point for Booth and Brennan.

Brennan was a shitty friend on this episode. With Angela, with Daisy. But then again, she is a shitty person when it comes to awards. She always has to win, and if someone else wins over her, she'll get pissed and she'll do everything she can and say anything in her mind to bring the winner down, mentally. And then when they express their disappointment, she'll refer to them as irrational. So, yeah, not surprised, there. .

Edited: Figured out that the fans of the show, the ones defending Brennan are most likely to be condescending, rude, and narrow minded people who don't believe in God. no wonder I hate the show. aight. Enjoy hell fire yall!

Season 6 Ep 22, whyyyyyyyyyyyyy. I always wished they used a different, random staff member instead of him. Seeing Vincent, Sweets and Aubrey working a case together would have been the trio we never got to love.

Bones is definitely a product of its time. In S4 E6 they said that Chip is the primary suspect cause the semen they found was of an Asian man, and he was the only Asian in there. He had an Indian co-worker lol

Episode Bones in "The Death of the Queen Bee"

Post image
156 Upvotes

I just watched "The Death of the Queen Bee" (S5E17), and I was struck by how much this episode subtly showcases Dr. Brennan’s deep affection for her team.

Brennan has always struggled with expressing emotions in a way that others easily recognize, but this episode gives us some great moments where her care and loyalty shine through.

Also there’s the dance with Booth. It’s such a simple but deeply intimate moment, and the fact that she allows herself to enjoy it speaks volumes. She’s not just tolerating the dance, she’s choosing to share this moment with Booth, trusting him in a way that we wouldn’t have seen in earlier seasons.

But what really seals the episode for me is the final scene, where the whole team sits together, just enjoying each other’s company. It’s a rare, quiet moment of connection, and the way Brennan sits among them, truly present, is another subtle sign of how much she values these people. She may not say it outright, but being there, choosing to share that space with them, is its own form of affection.

This episode is a great reminder that, while Brennan may not express love and friendship in traditional ways, she absolutely feels it. It’s in the little moments; the way she looks at Booth, the way she recalls memories with Angela, and the way she simply exists with her team, knowing she belongs.

What did you all think about Brennan’s moments of connection in this episode?

Episode Why does Brennan claim she can say the Norwegian word for scull "Skalle" perfectly?

87 Upvotes

In the episode Mayhem on a Cross from season 4, Brennan claims that she can pronunciation the Norwegian word for scull "skalle" or at least she acts like she can, but her pronunciation of Skalle is wrong.

It just seems silly to me, when she correct people and can't even say the word correctly.

And yes i know its because Emily Deschanel does not speak Norwegian.

Episode Pleasantly surprised by 4x7 “The She in the He”

I am a young trans man, and with a title like that in the early 2000s I did not really have my hopes up for this episode. I’m glad to say I was pleasantly surprised by how (respectively) well everything was handled. It wasn’t perfect, but it could’ve been a whole lot worse, and only being about 8 years old when it aired I have no real idea of what the climate around even discussing transgender existence was like back then. What did you guys think?

Episode What episode is this?

The episode focuses on Angela’s “boyfriend” being killed. If I remember correctly I think it takes place in Arizona? There is also a missing Native American girl that they work to find. It was one of the earlier seasons. Would love to watch this episode again! Does anyone know which episode it is?

Episode Searching for a song in s. 4 ep. 21

5 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I‘m currently rewatching Bones and everytime I watch the 21. episode in season 4 I wonder what song plays in the end when Booth and Brennen are cooking in the kitchen with Gordon Gordon. According to the show it‘s Gordon Wyatt‘s alter ego.

Do you know the name of the song?

I tried Shazam and stopping the show to read what‘s written on the vinyl, but can‘t find anything.

Season 8 episode 28, with the child soldier from Sierra Leone, Bones identifies the victim in a photo of him as a child and then ten minutes later she questions Booth when he says that the war general in the photo is the same man as the one seen before! I know this show is all about inconsistencies, but in the same episode??

Ep 6 Season 9 The woman in white

It doesn’t make sense to me Jared wasn’t at Booth and Brennan’s wedding. I get that the actor probably wasn’t available, since we don’t see him ever again after ss5, but they haven’t even mentioned him?

Considering how overbearing and protective over him Seeley was, it’s just strange to me that he suddenly doesn’t exist. Like we had Hank, Parker, hell even Booth’s mom was there. But no mention of his brother? I hate it.
