Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Poor Zach, indeed. sigh ... I liked him. And he seemed to be getting ... stronger? more mature? more sure of himself.

In the finale, when the others were standing outside the glass walls of his hospital room, was anyone else reminded of the first Christmas episode? (the one where they were all quarantined at Christmas time)

Harper's Island sounds interesting and I could swear I saw a promo for it - it looked interesting. Is it really a midseason replacement?

Well, he had a found a purpose in life . . .

I wonder if Brennan will visit him in the hospital. I think Angela would go once. It will be interesting to see how whatever replacement they find copes with "Yeah, your predecessor went crazy bad, but we loved him, so don't think you can waltz in here and we'll welcome you with open arms."

It's something I don't see much in current TV, a loveable character gone really, really off the rails with no real view towards getting back on them. It'll be neat to see how this plays out. The show is generally pretty good at not dropping plot points like this--see Angela's marriage in Fiji--so I think this will play out nicely.

I'm still waiting for them to pick up on the Gravedigger plotline again (from the time Brennan and Hodgins were buried underground in the car). That bad guy of the week got away with it, and we never heard about him again. And that was a season and a half ago.

Oh, yeah, the Gravedigger, I sit corrected.

They could have worked that as a nice instigating trauma to push Hodgins towards actualizing his conspiracy plots, but oh well.

I don't know how much of a procedural it is going to be, but "In Plain Sight" is going to be premiering tonight on USA for anyone that wanted to watch it.

Grrr, some asshat on the board just spoiled us on a Bones point, i.e. "I read in EW that . . ."

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
