Bones Review

**Warning if you haven't seen last season's finale, stop reading...oh and there are spoilers for the premiere in this review as well.

Tonight was the Bones Season Premiere and I have to say it was not disappointing. Sure it was different without Dr. Zack Addy, but he's a sicko now and got what he deserved.

This premiere starts of with Booth and Bones in England visiting Oxford. Of course, while they are there, a murder happens, and yes it is an American citizen so of course Booth gets to help out, and therefore Bones is on the case as well. They solve the case in Booth and Bones fashion and impress their English counterparts whom they are there visiting with. A hottie from Scotland Yard and a guy from Oxford, basically it is set up so you think that Bones is hooking up with this professor from Oxford and Booth is going to hook up with this Scotland Yard woman. No hooking up on English soil however (notice I said on English soil, wink, wink). As they are packing up to leave the great land of England, there just happens to be another murder, this time it is the English professor whom they were there to visit with in the first place. By the way, there is a lot of the story that I'm leaving out. Of course, because Bones is the best she is asked to help with the investigation and of course Booth is invited to stay. His invitation is a 007 gun, just FYI. They again solve this one, once again in true Booth and Bones fashion and get the bad guy.

Now back to the good 'ol US of A. While of course the squints are in the game helping with the murder of the US girl in England via phone and gadgets, a surprise visitor comes into the Smithsonian. A visit from Angela's husband from Fiji or wherever he's from. Now if you watched last season Angela and Hodgins (yes Hodgins Chilly, not Hodges) are trying to get married, they find out that Angela, after a wild night in Fiji, was married to a guy named Grayson. They hire a PI to find the guy so that he can sign the divorce papers. Anyway, he's there and is this hunk stud of a islander and Cam is smitten. Once he, Angela's husband, decides to sign the papers Cam offers to drive him to the airport. Let's just say his flight was cancelled and he wasn't to be left alone in the big city. Cam was there to make sure of that. Cam decides to come clean with Angela, and let's just say things break up a little.

So my overall grade or whatever I'd give it would be a A-. The guy that they got to take Zack's place in the premiere wasn't as good as they could have gotten. Lucky for us it looks like he'll only be on one show.

I so love this show! It's great. I'm not a big fan of Hodgens and Angela breaking up though. Like we said last night, we need them to be together cause Bones and Booth can't be. We need some lovin!! ;) Good show, good show!

We finally watched that episode on Hulu. It was a lot of fun to watch. This is a great show.

I think the funnest part is Booth's comments throughout the show. He's so funny.
