'''''Bones''''' is a television series which started in 2005 and
Fortunately for her (and the members of the public who have to deal with her), [[The Face|she has FBI agent Seeley Booth on her side]]. A former sniper with a young son and a laid-back loose-cannon personality, Booth is Brennan's partner in crime-solving, mutual irritation, and [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]]. With the help of a team of "squints" (Booth's terminology for [[The Lab Rat]], cause they're always squinting at things), the two of them [[They Fight Crime|solve murders]] through a mix of forensics, detective work, and occasional violence.

'''Camille:''' I was just asking! }}
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: An [[In-Universe]] example. It had been a [[Story Arc]] looking for a new lab intern and the crew were really starting to like Wendell Bray. When the scholarship that qualified him for the position in the first place went bankrupt, they spent an entire episode trying to find a way to keep him. {{spoiler|He was kept on thanks to an anonymous donation. Except they received ''three times'' as much money as they needed, meaning ''everyone'' was desperate to keep him but didn't want to admit it.}}
* [[Eskimos Aren't Real]]: Zack expresses surprise that Hodgins believes in pirates, and Hodgins snarks back that they're not Santa.▼
* [[Establishing Shot]]: The stock footage of a lovely summer garden outside 'The Jeffersonian'.
* [[Ethical Slut]]: Angela '''really''' likes sex, and has no reservations about letting it known.
Line 428 ⟶ 427:
** The case we never see solved: a skeleton curved all the way around into a backwards circle. This is before Brennan is pulled off the case for her father's trial.
** Dr. Nigel-Murray's hedonistic trip during the one-year break using the money he won on ''[[Jeopardy!]]''.
* [[No Social Skills]]: Zack, and Brennan to a lesser extent. As Angela puts it when they attempt to fist-bump (and immediately start deconstructing the entire concept) "It's so cute when you try to behave like earthlings." What's strange about this is that from what we see of Zack's family, it's normal. Like, mind-numbingly normal. His descriptions of them fit the stereotype of the average American family to a T. If anything, this seems to have ''exacerbated'' his strangeness.
* [[Not So Different]]: Broadsky invokes this when comparing himself and Booth, as does Bones when comparing the two. Booth vigorously rejects the notion but has trouble with the fact that Bones sees them as similar.
Line 504 ⟶ 502:
* [[Real Life Relative]]: Bones's second cousin Margaret is played by Emily Deschanel's sister [[Zooey Deschanel|Zooey]] in the Season 5 [[Christmas Episode]]. [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] to death: "You two could be sisters!"
* [[Real Life Writes the Plot]]: Emily Deschanel's pregnancy was written into the 7th season. {{spoiler|It also means she and Booth start living together and enter a committed relationship.}}
