User-1021799485's review about Bones(2005)

This is an amazing crime TV show with a gripping storyline, lively characters, deep emotions, and tons of entertainment. If you're into mystery and detective shows, this series is a must-watch for sure.

I absolutely love "Bones." It's incredibly objective, handling things rationally and keeping personal emotions in check. Each character has their own unique traits. I have a soft spot for the female characters in the show - they're successful in their careers, talented, and have well-rounded personalities. The pacing is a bit fast; I had some trouble adjusting to it at first, and there were times when it was challenging to follow the clues, but I eventually got the hang of it. The character relationships in the show progress rapidly, except for the main couple, which is quite lovely, haha. They are fearless in tackling hot-button social topics in each episode, and the story is concise without dragging on.

The main female character becomes more and more extreme in the latter part of the story, almost losing touch with her humanity in her quest for the truth. But then, in the final episode, her emotions get the best of her once again as she seeks the truth, exposing some significant issues in how she relates to others. Still, the main guy totally tolerates that. The rest of the characters are solid, too, like the wealthy person flying under the radar and the enigmatic artist. The whole story has this soothing vibe without any terrifying moments.

"Bones" really isn't my favorite among all the crime TV shows. I would enjoy it more if the female lead was more attractive and the male lead had a stronger, more macho persona. The male supporting characters and the ones in "Criminal Minds" are so similar, all geniuses. Also, that crime scene reconstruction drawing software seems pretty fake, like it's way ahead of our current civilization by decades.

The relationship between Bones and Booth is wonderfully complex and I highly anticipate how their relationship will turn out in the future. The show features affectionately quirky scientists. Each episode ties the case to the core values and beliefs of the characters, offering insights into why they hold these views and highlighting the characters' development and empathy.

A classic crime series, Bones is intensely unsettling, unlike CSI. The chemistry between the lead characters grows on you, making them a better match than those in Castle.

The autistic coded Dr. Bones is such a charismatic character, and the same goes for her close circle of co-workers, which makes the show just endearing to watch.
