icepixieGot my final disc of S2 Bones today, which only includes one episode before hitting the special features.
Wow. So, um, pretty much everything about this episode fell completely flat. I was rather amazed at how poorly everything worked out.
First of all, they are not going to make me have any appreciable amount of sympathy for the murderer of the week, so trying to relate her back to that ultra-cheesy video Brennan's mom made her? Insulting. Second, Angela and Hodgins can't get married because Angela's already married? Seriously? I'm sorry, did Netflix send me a DVD of Guiding Light or something? Bones, you tried way to hard to be funny there, and it was an epic fail. The randomness with Angela's old rock star father (whoever he was) was also annoying.
Finally, whoa; all the girls' clothes at the wedding were terrible. Brennan and Cam looked like boho refugees from the eighties. Angela's hood/veil thing was...well, first of all, it was a hood. With sequins. Ow.
However, Zack in Iraq does have some interesting possibilities...aside from the alliteration, of course. Heh. And if there aren't a million and one B&B fanfics out there with the reception as a setting, I will eat my hat.
Is Hart Hanson Canadian? There was definitely an "oot" in the special features. It would go far toward explaining the suspicious Fraseriness and RayVness of B&B....

I remember seeing a picture of them where she's basically standing on her toes to kiss him and he still has to practically crouch. I laughed.
Um, yeah. I do remember hearing about crates involved there, as well...
"Oh. He played football. Right."
I want some backstory about Booth's hockey days!
(Is it a bad thing that he sometimes reminds me of Brian? Especially when he gets angry?)
BWAHAH! Except Hodgins has more social graces. (Except for that one time where Hodgins smushed Zack's puppy and made him all emo!! Bad Hodgins!)
If you feel like giving up in S4, it does get better in the last few episodes.
Uhhhh....

Crates are so useful.

*COUGH*

SMOOSH SMOOSH SMOOSH. There's a clip I've seen in a lot of vids, but I can't remember the episode--Hodgins is basically fake-pummelling Zack behind his back for several seconds and looking very enraged. I always think of Brian then.
Uhhhh....
Just saying, 'cause I nearly gave up for a while...
