Bones is my happy place. It's not the most brilliant show, it doesn't have the sharpest writing or the most carefully observed plots, and it's a procedural at heart, so it spends a lot of time trying to gross people out when it doesn't really need to. But it's got wonderfully observed, quirky characters (a personal fave), some great dialog, and an ensemble cast that still keeps the focus largely on the two lead characters. And it's got Dave. I have loved David Boreanaz since early Buffy, and he makes me especially happy when he plays light comedy, his timing is excellent and he's just innately charming.

So now I'm pissed. They peed all over my happy place. I watch the show because it *is* a happy place -- it's a throwback to more old-fashioned shows where there were threats to the main characters, but you knew people weren't going to get offed in some dramatic fashion guaranteed to leave a wake of bitter and confused viewers.

They obliterated my happy place on Bones last night )

Really, I haven't been this angry about showrunners ruining one of my shows since the end of 4th season Nikita. Go to hell, Hart Hanson. You wrecked my happy place.
