I want to keep watching "Bones" but it is bugging me.
OK, maybe being ex-law enforcement blah, blah.....but
His laid back attitude about having "Bones" go with him into dangerous situations....
Ex sniper using a revolver?????? Even I had a semi-auto.
The fixation of trying and get them hooking up.
The fact that she is all hot and dolled up for the commercial break things and tomboyish in the series.
I will try and keep watching but this series may not make it in the "watching the whole season" of my dvr section.

Ya, its okay and has some interesting things...but my concern is they are going to run out of ways to have a unidinetifiable corpse for her to play with.
Do people really talk like they do in real life? My "turn the channel" meter started beeping. I don't know if episode #3 will make it or break it for me.
It is a hit and miss for me, I don't like Bones nor attitude (best term I can come up with) of supporting characters but as there is nothing on before House I may continue to watch.

The constant music montages in the first episode kinda spoiled it for me. Her lab crew annoy the living daylights outta me and what's worse is that the FBI/cop types put up with it! I did get annoyed with the plot hook of getting Bones and Booth together. They could have done it better. But as mentioned before, there's really nothing on before House.

I hate the lab crew also. And I think they are going to run out of ideas soon enough as well.
Also the 3d computer thing bugs me. I always though these shows try to go for a semblance of realism, that is Star Trek tech or maybe Tek War.

I don't think the holographic imaging is too far advanced. They can already do it with 2d, so it's not too far fetched.

I actually enjoy Bones and for many of the same reasons I love House. What I suspect many are complaining are annoying I'm finding fun. Its entertaining. Ep 1 I admit was better than 2 but it was still nice in my mind. I love the exchanges they have between the characters or about the characters.
I conceed that I dont know how they'll be able to keep the show interesting all the time but I think its got potential. its not as good as House but I'm gonna still watch it and not just because theirs nothing better on before House.
Zephyrus- I can see the charm that is 'Bones'. What I have are nitpicks that are inconsequential. It will probably get more entertaining. And to keep it fresh as long as it's CSI-like, then it should do fine. The lab crew'll probably branch out, it's just that they are kinda annoying.

Bones is already off my radar. It ranged from trite to absurd, and seemed a great deal too much like watching actors play roles. Plus it's on in the same time slot as Navy NCIS, which pretty much kills Bones in this house.
And comparing Bones to House is, IMO, just silly. The latter is extremely well-written, has a solid cast of core characters led by a top-notch actor, regularly tackles and intelligently explores controversial topics, et cetera.
Bones is just a second-rate CSI: spin-off, and there are already way too many of them on TV.

The only thing bad with that analogy is that: isn't there already a bunch of CSI shows out there? And how many "clones"? How many is too many? It's just like the glut of reality crap out there just because Survivor became a hit. Even NCSI is basically a CSI type show.

These things come in phases. There used to be nothing but westerns on.
When people stop watching them, the networks will stop making them.
As for Bones, I like it, because I find the characters funny and engaging.
Do I think its realistic? No, but I read John Douglass books when I want real crime. I watch TV to be entertained.
