I'm getting hooked on the tv show "Bones"
My wife and I are really knocking them back. Been renting the 1st season discs and watching 2 a night.

I never saw the appeal in any of these forensic shows until now. I'm so behind the curve.

Anyone else following this show?

1. my bf and i watch it also
i really like it. the character interaction and light humor make it better than most of the shows like it.

if you like to read you ought to try some of kathy reichs books. "bones" is based on them even though temperance in the book is NOTHING like tempe in the show.

2. Cool. Thanks.
You have a title of a fave maybe?

We just watched a good one tonight from season 1. About the attempt on Brenna's life and the Booth and Brennan rockin' to Foreigner before the fridge blows up, if you recall?

And you are right about the humor, I think. I don't know if I'd watch just for the whodunnit. I like that Zack kid. He gets the funniest lines, IMHO.

3. all of the books are good.
i just tried to find the first one and read them in progression. i usually use amazon to get a timeline on the books.

i do like zack. he is so smart but clueless at the same time. i also like booth's "i'm so cool but not really" thing too.
