Yeah, the Angela/Hodgins thing was dumb. Somebody at the network must have said "That's boring! Break them up!"

And now a search for an assistant, which I guess they figured even they couldn't shoehorn into the premiere.

Susie from Torchwood!

Well, snap. I knew I'd seen her somewhere. Don't ask me why, but I really want to slash her with Brennan.

“Not dead yet!”

Mark Valley did that Booth role a lot more naturally and subtly in Keen Eddie. Way too over the top.

Well, and the way that Keen Eddie was filmed, in and of itself was sort of over the top and Monty was such a great foil for him (love me some Julian Rhind-Tutt). If Mark had overplayed it would have really stuck out, don't you think?

Man I wish that show had lasted. It was like an inverted DueSouth.

Oh yeah-- it was so completely and utterly bent. I would've loved to have seen where they would have taken it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Was the Gravedigger plotline ever resolved?

No, darn it.

edit: I wonder if we'll see Max again. I like Max Keenan.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Meh. Too much soap opera for my taste last night. If this is the direction they're going this season, I'm out. (It doesn't hurt that a show I'm looking forward to will be airing at the same time in a few weeks)

I think Clark leaving with "I want to work in real lab!" was an acknowledgement of the heightened level of soap opera. Maybe that's why they broke up Hodgins and Angela, unless the writers drag in some sort of family-oriented drama, the two of them being married doesn't advance the show.
