Loved Bones this week. It was totally awesome, especially the chemistry between Booth and Brennan. I just love David and Emily. The scene in the lingerie shop was hilarious. I loved how sensitive Booth was to Brennan and that he wanted to help her out. I loved that he bought her something. LOL... The case was great. A relaxing case, well written. Very different. Loved everything about it. I give it an 8 out of 10.

Ah the product placement. People always complain about that. Me, personally, couldn't really care less about that. There is a huge reason why that happens, but the general public rather sound off on it. Take a moment to think. Say like around either season 3 or 4, Booth gets a big, black, shiny new Toyota Sequoia. Mysterious right? Now if people pay attention to the credits or even during the ads, the voice ad dude says "...brought to you by Toyota..." So, by careful observation that I just randomly did right now, the Bones folk have funding by Toyota.
Now take a second; You're a Rep from Toyota, you are going to want your company's vehicle being advertised somehow. So, tell the writers of the show that your company is funding to put a placement for it. So I hope that clears things up a bit. Oh and one final thing, Hart Hanson has said that the show gets funding from Toyota and that's why you see the product placement. If that's not clear enough why that happpens, then idk... I'm j

For the first time in seven years, I found myself wondering exactly WHY I am still watching Bones. What an obnoxious episode! The blatant product placement was ridiculous. I'm not a huge fan of Sweets' anyhow, as I find his character (and his cringeworthy girlfriend Daisy) annoying. The "robot car" scene really made me angry. If I wanted to watch car commercials, I'd watch car commercials. I expected....well, a bit more from a supposedly scripted TV drama. When this season started, I had lengthy discussions with a friend of mine as to why he wasn't going to watch the show anymore, as he was of the opinion that they'd REALLY jumped the shark.I kept telling him that the reason I kept tuning in wasn't for B&B anymore, but for Hodgins and Angela. After last night...I don't know if I can even do that anymore. I am going to have to seriously think about whether or not I want to tune in next week.
@Tom -- Don't worry. It's got another season at best. It's a lot like real life: all the women folk hover over the expectant mother and then fuss over the newborn baby, but shortly after the birth, they're on to other things. It's like the excitement of the coming baby makes them forget that in reality, babies are pretty boring. It'll be the same here. Viewers will drop off drastically now that the baby has been born, and by next January we'll be hearing that Bones is "on the bubble."

I love show; I enjoy seeing booth and bones loving eac h other I enjoy the romance ... as for the spa part it was sooooo wrong .. as a license massage therapist .. there is no way you can wear a ring or have long nails. That is soo not possible... and you can't. Leave the spa with the robe... it was funny but true!!!!!!

I will be so happy if and when this show ever gets over it's baby-themes and plots, brought about by the decision to let Bones have her baby as part of the story. What a let down as far as interaction between characters. Going to the expected mundane baby-stories, baby-sitting etc, Sweets counseling the new parents. What a waste. No more for this season and hopefully they will pull things together next season. Good shows are always spoilt by the advent of a baby...Sorry charlie

I still love the show; I never much was interested in having my hair done (I go to a men's barber, though I'm female) or going to a spa. I see occasional errors in the science, and I still love the show.
I can't remember being unhappy after the birth of any of my babies; I was too busy. I grant that your life changes in a big way. Brennan did not state her problem accurately, and Booth is not yet a mind-reader, though he certainly is learning.

Absolutely love Bones and how they are dealing with the relationship of Brennan and Booth, the baby they have together and the love that is between them. This current show was unique and the premise had so many twists and turns that came to a very logical ending.
I completely loved this episode! Four stars. It had everything we've come to love Bones for ... the wonderful warmth between Bones and Booth. This episode, more than even the birth episode, brought that back for us in spades making many a loyal fan immeasurably happy. Thank you, Hart and Nathan (And even more, David and Emily) for this wonderful insight into this loving couple that has moved light years ahead behind the scenes. Thanks for pulling the curtain back, guys. There may be issues we may never see direct resolution for, but we can rest assured that things are going well between these two! Take THAT, Moonlighting!
Loved Booth enlisting Cam's assistance and daring to go into a lingerie shop with Sweets! Shows that he's willing to do anything to help her feel better. Awesome case as well! Thoroughly awesome!

I use to love to watch this show..But the overly graffic dead bodies gave me nightmares..I love the interaction of the characters, just can't deal with the gore..I'm betting if they backed off a bit on that the ratings would go up even more!

They are not dealing well with finding the new balance. The last 2 episodes have been far too focused on personal and emotional aspects of the BoNes family rather than the work. The gushy stuff is nice, but needs to be far more limited.

Oh how I love Bones.... Can B&B get any better???. Well done David and Emily..... It would have been nice if they had previous address Parker’s return next week so it does not seem like he is just address in one episode. I like that the creator is keep true to the show. It not a baby mamma, baby daddy show, there is still disgusting dead body to deal with.
I can’t wait until next week to see Parker’s reaction to his cute little sister, and I am sure the writer will have big brother bonding with his little sister by the end of the episode. Happy Bones Day is here again ha ha ha ha.

I like the homelife scenes better than the cases these days. I mean, I like the changes in the show. To me it started with the little blonde mute girl who'd been abducted as a baby. The focus there was more emotional with regard to Brennan (and turning to Booth for guidance, turning to him as she might a big brother or like a high school girl to her high school boyfriend) and Sweets was more forward from that episode (which was followed by the sniper and the squint getting killed, and the Angela's baby being born and Brennan tells Booth she's pregnant ... and then this season (like the show changed directions, in my opinion). I like it!

God the hair thing was terrifying, in the end when they revealed the mannequin head with the scalped hair it gave the creeps that will last me minimum until the next ep.
it was strange but Bones looked good in her robe and mask residue do. she actually did look refreshed.
my only prob with this ep was the oh so in your face commercial of the Toyota car Sweets was driving. Seriously could they make it any more obvious?? it was annoying and i kept wait Booth to tell him to cut it out with the lobbying for this car and to make a pun out of it, but it didn't happen.
the rain from blue birds was almost biblical, it was a nice touch to have a religious group standing there. maybe it was a sign from god telling them to stop milking people for money.
Brennan: I want to marry you. Will you marry me, Booth? Booth: Are you serious? Brennan: Yes. I've been afraid, I've been stubborn, and I've been in love. An...
