10PM was new. The "unexpected" twist at the end was telegraphed throughout. It's like when you saw Wil Wheaton as the desk clerk in the hotel. You immediately knew that he was the killer and that's where the kidnapper had the vics because Wil Wheaton wouldn't have three lines.

I liked Bones tonight. One of the bad guys was seriously squicky.
I was particularly fond of Hodgins' "I rarely find motive in bird vomit."
Is anyone watching Southland? They're trying so hard for gritty realism that I have trouble understanding what people are saying.
Harper's Island - unlike The Sixth Sense, NO ONE sees dead people.
Does this make it non-sense?
Could the murderer be delusional and imagining the entire thing? Are the other characters acknowledging that people are missing?
I don't understand. And furthermore, I think people might be on the lookout for missing people - given that folks now know there are traps in the woods, or people could get into accidents, etc. It's really weird.
No, other characters aren't acknowledging missing people except for the cousin that didn't show up and the girl who was hanged.
Wasn't the girl with the little dog the Bride's sister? Surely she should be missed by now.
I'm sad: tivo deleted last night's Bones before 10 pm!
I saw a LOL of Hugh Laurie as Prince George from Black Adder, with the caption "It's never lupus!" So, so weird to realize those are teh same guys.
I could see the plot stretching out to the end from the beginning of Medium, but enjoyed the flashback as a device to shake up their storytelling. I'm starting to feel for the writers. There's little that they've done lately that isn't a variation of something they've done before. Still, I like their family, and being a lightweight in this department, it's the only show that I'll watch that's a little scary. It's kind of fun being a little bit scared.
