| David Boreanaz (Angel, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) stars as F.B.I. Agent Seeley Booth, who teams up with forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan (Emily Deschanel) to solve some of the most baffling and bizarre crimes ever. Booth depends on clues from the living, witnesses and suspects, while Brennan gathers evidence from the dead, relying on her uncanny ability to read clues left behind in the bones of the victims. Their different investigative styles cause the two to frequently clash, creating an undeniable chemistry and just the right touch of dark humor. Inspired by real-life forensic anthropologist Kathy Reichs and state-of-the-art criminal investigation procedures, Bones is a compelling, cutting edge television.

Author: Guest It's really refreshing to watch series such as Bones. It's witty and suspenseful. Unlike Law and Order, this show has more...well everything.
The characters are all very likeable. There are little romantic moments between the main characters that make the show more interesting.
basically...just get season 1, you won't regret it.

Author: Guest Bones is an interesting well acted well written drama. The main characters are brilliant, genius scientific staff, and one an honor bound former sniper of an FBI agent. There is good chemistry between the two main stars and a lot just under the surface in the supporting cast.
The science in the stories (forensic anthropology) is fascinating, as is the view of the protagonist (Dr. Bennan) as she tries to compensate for her lack of social skills, with her brilliant abilities. I like this part of the show especially, as I always enjoy an exploration of the alienation of those with exceptional abilities. I also like the story of the FBI agent ( Special Agent Booth) as he deals with his own inner conflicts of his past. I guess I really like that there is an effort in the writing to give a real life depth to the characters.
My youngest daughter was hooked after the first episode. I like that she wants that kind of role model.

Author: Guest I haven't watched the first season - I just started watching the show so I'm a very brand new viewer - but I've seen two episodes of season 2 and this is really a good show. Its subject matter is grim, yes, but there are light moments and the cast has nice chemistry, especially David Boreanaz (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel) and Emily Deschanel. The stories are interesting w/out being too scientific so anyone can follow along. And I never realized how much information a person can get just by examining someone's bones (okay, maybe only in tv land).

Author: Guest While not as great as many of the shows out there, this show is interesting and has a great cast. Temperance Brennan is an unusual character for a leading lady in a drama, which is partly the shows appeal. Not as good as CSI, but definitely a quality crime drama.

Author: Guest I'm not into all of the crime dramas that have currently taken over television (aside from the fabulous Cold Case). However, I found myself thoroughly enjoying the first season of Bones, which seemed to get better with every new episode. People talk about the romantic chemistry between Agent Booth (David Boreanaz) and Dr. Brennan (Emily Deschanel), but personally I love the playful chemistry they have as friends. As intelligent as Dr. Brennan is, she doesn't possess a lot of people skills and is constantly being taught to appear more sympathetic and less harsh by Booth (in a kind of role reversal) and her best friend, Angela. As the season progresses, we see her opening up a little more and viewing other people as individuals rather than simply as part of the cultures she's studied. We also see the trust and friendship being built between her and Agent Booth. Though the show's subject matter is often very unpleasant, the main characters all have a certain charm that makes it very enjoyable to watch. The show also has a delightful sense of humor that I think is lacking in most of the other dramas on TV. The writing is smart and David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel are extremely likable as the two leads.
