Bones catch-up

I'm catching up on the show, so I can watch the episode "The X in the File" which airs next Thursday, January 14, so here's my quick thoughts on the episode.

Season 5 Episode 7 The Dwarf in the Dirt: The charming case took a backseat as Booth's problems cropped up, and the episode reinforced what we already know--Booth loves Brennan. Sweets and Booth look to Gordon Gordon for help and there was lots of restating the same things over and over.

Season 5 Episode 8 The Foot in the Foreclosure: Funny case with hilarious scene at the fat club and lots of looks between Booth and Bones. Wow, the writer's showed they like each other without someone directly stating it. How ingenious.

Season 5 Episode 9 The Gamer in the Grease: I thought the Avatar cross-promotion was pretty funny, but the rest of the episode was weird in a bad way. The autistic kid playing video games and the tattoo girl made it so unrealistic.

Season 5 Episode 10 The Goop on the Girl: I liked seeing what everyone was doing for Christmas. I'm glad Daisy is back. Maybe the rest of the people find her annoying, but that's what makes her interesting and funny. Zooey Deschanel was fine in her role which was probably only notable because she is Emily's sister.
