Was she surprised that they actually did it, or that they didn't suddenly sweep each other up and snog passionately?

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.

According to epguides Kville has new episodes on the 3rd and the 10th.

Previews for The Closer and Saving Grace.

Could House get a ketamine booster, or is that a risk they only took because he got shot? (I'm catching up with Season 3, obviously.)

I thought the gum thing was gross, but that's my own squick.

Other than that, I like this show - Booth is so sweet. I'm too alzy to go look and see who said it, but I started watching only to support DB and it's turned out to be such a likable show.

not just yours.

I was distracted and almost missed the gum thing, that's so cliche. But I loved seeing Booth with his son and the gift he got Bones. Plus it's always fun to see the banter between Booth and Bones, and I like them without sexual tension. They have a nice chemistry the way they are.

I'm looking forward to Dad's trial, the prosecution is going to want to use the Jeffersonian forensic information, Booth will have to testify, plus there will be questions of how unbiased everyone is because of Brennan . . .

I like the fact that Max really is a hard core criminal, he is indeed a murderer with no apologies, even if there were extenuating circumstances. I remember Booth's line last season about preferring a stand-up criminal to a crooked cop.

I like the interaction between Booth and Brennan, but it's really not sexual.

The last scene with the Santas sent me to a Clockwork Orange place, with the other Santas kicking the bad Santa to death while singing "You Better Watch Out...." The ending was one of the least annoying montages I've seen in some time.

Anyone watching Criminal Minds, it's a differnt format than they usually do and I'm not really sure I like it. The storyline seems a bit too -- fantastical for what CM usually does. I think I know where they are going and that they are showing things from the prespective of the unsub, but I don't think I like it. Especially if turns out Johnny's girlfriend was killed and he had a psychotic break and is killing people now without realizing it.

My speculation is white fonted.

I was right, but it actually turned out better than I expected. I have to say though I prefer it when my standard shows don't deviate too much from the standard, but this was okay. LIked the Morgan and Garcia bits at the end.
