Bones

I love the show bones.  I love the language I do not quite understand, but feel makes me smarter.  I love the sexual tension between Booth and Bones.  I love that they always find new and interesting ways to solve cases.  I think the show has done a great job of developing these characters and their backstories.  The eternal realist Bones is greatly juxtaposed to Booth's ideas on life and the world.  This season, they are finally together after season after season of questioning, "Will they or wont they?"  I think the episodes are well directed and include interesting points of view and camera angles.  Although, it is similarly the same formula each episode, I am still interested.  I think the personal lives mixed with their jobs adds a layer to this show that some other crime shows do not have.  The fact that the stories are based of of real story of an anthropologist makes the show even more fascinating.  The show follows basic crime scene drama, but makes work scenarios that would seem too far fetched for a lot of primetime television.  Currently, the show is dealing with the different ways Bones and Booth approach having a child together.  Bones struggles with the emotional side of being pregnant, always resulting in a list of the scientific reasons she is feeling a certain way.  I can't wait to see what happens when the baby arrives.
