Well, I'm wondering whether leaving might have been the wrong thing. As in - his whole craxiness was based on his mother leaving and then he had Katie put on the apron and making lunch. I thought that maybe making lunch, not leaving might appease him.
(I didn't mean that Bones didn't have Xmas episodes - I just meant that this was the first show I've seen that has done a Xmas episode. Sometimes, in normal years, shows have the odd new episode outside of Sweeps. SPN is having one in December (for example.)
I think it was the right move because he told her to leave, as opposed to the little kid not having a choice so many years ago.
then Booth showing up with a tree did get me a little teary eyed.
that he ran off of the car battery! am I total geek for loving that part?
I loved the way Booth made Christmas for Bones' family. And also, a nice lesson for Parker, you know?
And as was noted in Natter: DB is looking very good.
am I total geek for loving that part?
No. And you just know that he and Parker had a great time getting that all set up.
(I possibly have a soft spot for daddy!Booth that's a mile wide. Shh, don't tell anyone.)
eta: omg x-post!
I remember the first Christmas ep. Stoned Booth! He so loves being dorky. And, yeah, he's looking particularly smoking this year.
"I'm feeling puckish." Everyone's a matchmaker. It honestly seems, though, that the stumbling blocks between Booth and Brennan, particularly religion, preclude anything other than friendship.
edit: And the use of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" as a threat was surreal!
"I'm feeling puckish."
I was curious about her expression. Was she surprised that they actually did it, or that they didn't suddenly sweep each other up and snog passionately?
I wonder when they'll start Dad's trial or if that's waiting for the writer's strike to finish.

I took it that she was supposed to be surprised by the "level of passion". but, since it wasn't that passionate, it kinda didn't work. It was a nice kiss, but not a sock moving one. And the gum thing was trite.
