BONES Recap: ‘The Verdict in the Victims’

Hello, hello! What did you think of this BONES episode, “The Verdict in the Victims”? I thought it was pretty good. I think in theory, it was great, but the episode suffered some internal and external timing issues. It’s a shame the serial killer storyline was wrapped up so quickly, because I think there was a lot crammed into this episode that could have been explored. And because Booth and Brennan and team were the ones who have been working this case all along, all errors in previous work are on their conscience, which was a bummer.

Normally when they are racing against the clock, it’s to overturn shoddy work or a deceitful coroner’s report. That every clue in this case came at the expense of some error they’d made before was a stretch. And explaining away SUCH a quick timeframe from Alex Rockwell’s trial to his execution was also a stretch. (It’s been seven months AND he requested an early death?)

I am not sure if this episode suffered from a need to wrap up storylines before the end of the season (and possibly series) or not, but I think it was somewhat rushed. So the team was up against the clock, and the episode itself seemed rushed by the very nature of the show’s status on Fox’s schedule for 2015-2016. Read more

ABC Orders THE MUPPETS, DR. KEN, and THE REAL O’NEALS

ABC has ordered a batch of comedies for the 2015-2016 season: THE MUPPETS (yes, those Muppets — though it’ll be a more “adult” versions of their lives, exploring their relationships and breakups, in a documentary-style show); DR. KEN starring Ken Jeong; and THE REAL O’NEALS, a semiautobiographical comedy that explores the family dynamic when a son comes out of the closet.

 

ABC Orders Shondaland Series THE CATCH, QUANTICO, WICKED CITY, and More

BONES Recap: ‘The Lost in the Found’

Hey BONES fans! What did you think of this episode, “The Lost in the Found”? I have to say that I felt pretty strongly about it; it was an episode where what I loved, I loved — but what I didn’t like, I really, really didn’t like. The case was excellent, sad, and meaningful. The Brennan-in-denial about her pregnancy (and every person mockingly commenting on it) was just awful. The worst. More analysis later, for now let’s discuss the case. Read more

Fox Orders Rob Lowe Comedy THE GRINDER and Medical Drama ROSEWOOD

Fox is adding THE GRINDER and ROSEWOOD to its 2015-2016 lineup.

THE GRINDER, a single-cam comedy from writers Jarrad Paul and Andrew Mogel, stars Rob Lowe as an actor who moves back home after his long-running television series ends. (Fox’s take: “Rob Lowe stars as beloved TV lawyer Dean Sanderson (aka “The Grinder”), with Fred Savage starring as his brother, Stewart. When his long-running hit series comes to an end, he finds himself at a crossroads in life and decides to move back to his small home town thinking he has the experience to take over his family’s law firm.”)
