Okay. I'll give her a chance. But I'm keeping my eye on her, do you hear me, show?

So what happened with Bones' dad? Why did Zack leave for Iraq? What's the status of Angela & Hodgins? And srsly, yo, did they both totally lose a bunch of weight or something? They seem all...weird and angular and much more generic looking.

So what happened with Bones' dad?

Booth finally found enough evidence to establish that Dad's current alias was the same guy as wanted criminal Max Keenan and arrested him for the murder of the FBI director who was trying to kill Bones and her brother. Dad let himself be arrested because the alternative was disappearing on Bones again.

Why did Zack leave for Iraq?

The government put out a call for forensic anthropologists to go to Iraq for something. Hodgins wanted Zack to be his best man at the wedding--see below--but Zack told him that if he, Zack, were killed in Iraq he didn't want the memories of the wedding tainted with "and then the best man was killed". He told Booth that he figured Booth would understand why he was going because Booth "knew more about honor and duty than anybody I know."

What's the status of Angela & Hodgins? And srsly, yo, did they both totally lose a bunch of weight or something? They seem all...weird and angular and much more generic looking.

Hodgins kept asking Angela to marry him, she kept saying No until Hodgins realized that it didn't matter if they were married so long as they were happy together, and she was so thrilled to have a man who understood her that she said Yes to getting married. Cue several cute scenes about arranging the wedding, including a re-visit with Angela's Dad, the guy from ZZ Top. During the wedding itself, a guy from the State Department shows up to say, "No, you can't get hitched, because she's still legally married to that guy she jumped over a broom with in Fiji."

What? I watched the repeats.

Is this the place for Life?

I loved it. Loved it to itty bitty bits.

Except for the fruit thing.

I watched Life because I liked Damian Lewis in Band of Brothers, but I didn't love it much at all. I'll watch another ep or two to see if it gets any better, but I don't hold out much hope. And yeah, the fruit thing has got to go.

I liked the partner, Rhys, I liked the LT, I liked Mutt and Jeff. I liked the humor, and all the quiet moments.

And of course I adore DL. Although on second watch, the flashes of Ister Gay has got to go.

I was at the network site, and they have some of the documentary they use in the show up, and they used the cut with Claudia Black playing Crews' ex-wife! Except, seeing it, I'm glad she got replaced (lemme esplain!) because her American accent is still awful. Otherwise she did make me feel for her more than the current blonde lady did.

Bones - I seriously like this show. I do miss the old uptight boss, but I like the Camille character. Last season there was a whole thing about the conflict between her and Brennan, including problems with the other staff people, but it was resolved. Loved Angela's father - Hodgins goes to speak to him, to ask for her hand in marriage (really!) and dad pointed out that if she knew he'd asked for her hand or any part of her from him, she'd .... don't quite remember, but it was something dire. Then he looked at Hodgins and said something about "I've got cars, guitars, and guns. Make sure you're only on the business end of the first two." Sorry the wedding didn't come off, but this whole track down her "husband" thing is amusing.

Criminal Minds - I assumed the Gideon guilt trip is a way to get Mandy Patinkin off the show without having him just drop out of sight.

K-Ville - I watched the first episode and didn't really like it. I enjoyed the non-crime parts best, but there was a scene early on where the woman singer was talking in what sounded to me like that fake New Orleans accent/slang that I've heard in movies, TV, etc.

Yeah, I figured that as well. I was also interested to see that the spoilers I read were wrong. I wasn't expecting Patinkin's character to be involved in the actual case in the episode. I thought they handled it pretty well considering what they had to work with.

I knew they were going to have to get Gideon off the show somehow, but I didn't like the end where it seemed to be hinting that he'd kill himself, that just seemed OOC.

Well from the previews they showed, it looks like it is going to continue next week, so I'm hoping he doesn't actually kill himself.

K-ville was okay. I was surprised to see Tim Minear's name in the credits. I was looking at the locations, too, looking for places that I recognize. Tthe scenes supposedly at the airport were actually shot near the Convention Center. The two big bridges in the background were a dead giveaway.
