The sides of Bones
- A forensic anthropologist who reads skeletons
- An FBI agent who trusts his gut
- A lab full of scientists solving murders
Bones is good for you if…
- you like a murder solved from bones, insects and a chipped tooth.
- you like the sparks between Booth, the FBI agent, and Brennan, the scientist.
- you like the whole Jeffersonian team arguing over the remains.
Bones is bad for you if…
- you can't commit to twelve seasons.
- you can't stand close-ups of rotting and burned bodies.
