The Parts in the Sum of the Whole

The title of this blog is a shout out to the 100th episode of one of the shows that I still follow, though mostly a majority of it I've been following online. It's called BONES and it's basically a crime drama focusing on forensic science and the relationships of the characters in the show, particularly Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) and FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz).

Brennan and Booth

I won't really get into much of the story since we are now in season 5. A lot of people compare the dynamics of the show to The X-Files but I never really watched that so I wouldn't know. I actually watched this episode with my brother this past Thursday night. I would say that this episode was one of the best that I've seen in any show, and probably one of the better flashback episodes in recent memory. It really helped explain a lot of how the show started and how everything came into place.

The ending though... Wow! I don't remember the last time I've watched a scene unfold and thought to myself "I can't believe this is happening right now. Is this really happening?!?" It was definitely angst done right, if that makes sense. And it did make me tear up a bit. I hate TV shows sometimes. Anyway, there are only six episodes left in the season, and I heard that the last one will also take its viewers in another emotional roller coaster ride.

Hold on tight!
