icepixieI got my wish! Both parts of this episode were almost as hilarious as "The Baby in the Bough"!
Part 1
- Okay, I'm back to wanting to kill Sweets. Especially after what he instigated in the second episode, ARGH!
- And the UK team is totally a genderswapped B&B! With sex! Oh, someone please tell me there's Pritchard/Wexler fic out there. Please. I want to read it so very badly.
- *snerk* at Booth's totally inappropriate and yet incredibly hilarious "I hate England" rant in the middle of a traffic circle in London. I just tended to whine in here when I felt that way.
- "He had a little gay crush on you." Angela, could you replace Sweets? Because I like you a lot more than I like him. I don't even like him in a "love to hate him way," except for those (admittedly relatively frequent) moments when he's getting absolutely humiliated. (BTW, speaking of Sweets, did y'all know there was a "Couples Counseling" podcast on iTunes with little video snippets of B&B in the waiting rooms of Wyatt and Sweets? They're brief and low-budget, but hilarious.)
- Again with the hilarity as Booth tries to parallel park on the wrong side of the road! This episode made me laugh and laugh.
- Awww. The universe speaks pretty.
- !!!! Brennan is smelling the evidence! Soon she'll be tasting it and then her transformation into Benton Fraser will be complete! I AM A PROPHET! (Oh dear god I need less caffeine.)
Part 2
- Yay for Cam getting some! Except for the part where she precipitates the Angela/Hodgins breakup.
- Speaking of which, ANGELA AND HODGINS CAN'T BREAK UP! They're too adorable for breaking up! AAAAAHHHHHH!!! Are we going to need another death-defying adventure to get them back? With Angela at death's door this time? Or is there a simpler solution? *locks them together in a closet without any security cameras* Grrr. I knew that diner was evil, and this--along with the blatant sniper angles and all the other things I know were bad but can't remember--proves it! Can we bring back Wong Fu's and its good karma?
- Aw, bye, Clark. I loved you. You could still stay? Get used to the intraoffice drama you mock so amusingly?
- Aaaaand Pritchard suspects B&B of being a couple. Because Brennan didn't sleep with Wexler because Booth would object. WILL YOU TWO PLEASE JUST RIDE OFF INTO THE SUNSET TOGETHER ALREADY FOR THE LOVE OF GOD???
Ohhhhhh, I need to lay off the capslock there.

Date: 2008-12-21 04:42 pm (UTC)HEE! They are! The woman who played Pritchard was also on Torchwood (Suzie!) which still amuses me to no end.
BTW, speaking of Sweets, did y'all know there was a "Couples Counseling" podcast on iTunes with little video snippets of B&B in the waiting rooms of Wyatt and Sweets? They're brief and low-budget, but hilarious.
Oooh, it's on iTunes? I've seen it on YouTube, but not on iTunes. All of them made me smile, but the one where Brennan is eating raisins or the like sticks in my mind. Booth keeps trying to get some raisins and when she tells him he can eat the one on the floor, HE DOES. I have a feeling the later ones were very much ad libbed.
I AM A PROPHET!
YOU ARE!
Yay for Cam getting some!
Haha, that was my reaction as well.
Speaking of which, ANGELA AND HODGINS CAN'T BREAK UP! They're too adorable for breaking up! AAAAAHHHHHH!!!
I am still miffed at the ridiculousness of their "logic." The whole thing was made on a false assumption, nitwits! But maybe it'll be good for them; they'll learn and grow and be more awesome together later? I don't know.

That's where I've seen her before! I knew she looked familiar, as did her name. (I watched the first few episodes of TW. Fighting off the velociraptor with barbeque sauce was the last straw for me.
Oooh, it's on iTunes?
It is! You can subscribe to the podcast and it downloads the new episodes (they're free) onto your computer. Or you can just watch them at the store without downloading them.

Haha, yes. I did enjoy the "five second rule" moment.
YOU ARE!
SHE WILL TOTALLY TASTE EVIDENCE SOON!
Haha, that was my reaction as well.
Poor Cam.

GAAAAAHHHHH, yes. The desperate attempt to add drama was utterly transparent.
But maybe it'll be good for them; they'll learn and grow and be more awesome together later? I don't know.
Perhaps so. It would be nice. (Personally, I'm still betting on some kind of Angela's life in danger moment near the end of the season that pulls them back together, then BABIEZ in S5, because all those anvils in S3 can't be for naught.)
