I started watching Bones when it had just finished its 9th season, so I had a lot of catching up to do. I had just finished watching Freaks and Geeks and I had really liked John Francis Daley, so he was the reason I decided to watch the show. He does not appear as Lance Sweets until Season 3, but he is amazing as always. I started to watch the show because of him, but I fell in love with other characters in the process. I loved how Booth, the FBI agent, made fun of all the anthropologists and how Brennan would always tell her colleagues not to presume or hypothesize anything and just go based off the evidence. Each of the characters have their own quirks that typical people would most certainly not have. That is something I absolutely loved about the show. I love how characters change over time too. Emily Deschanel who plays Brennan goes from being a cold, rational anthropologist to being warm, sometimes kind and sympathetic friend to others. Bones has about 8-9 amazing seasons, but after that it tails off. I watched halfway through season 10 before I decided to stop. The show was not bad by all means, but I was just bored with it by that point.
On a happier note, I loved the show!!! The writing is very witty and smart, it uses modern day real world events in the murder cases and talks about taboo topics in our society. I recommend this show for anyone that likes crime procedural tv shows, I loved it for a very long time and it was with a very sad heart that I decided to stop. This show is highly recommended!
