Bones: Season 9

This was a pretty good season, started darkly, and then ended darkly but some good stuff inbetween. At last the Bonster and Boothtied the knot though in a kind of odd wedding ceremony. I loved the vows they exchanged with Booth recalling the fact that they weregetting married on the grounds where they first met. I did not like the fact that the Church burned down and the creep Daisy blamedBooth. Why she continues to be on the show with Sweets I do not know; I don't like either of them, nor do I like the interns exceptfor Wendel and poor Zach who I wish they could bring back. This marriage was one of the highlights of this season, perhaps theehighlight. Going on 10 years and Emily and David still look very good, though there are some changes showing. I fear that now thatthey are together we may lose the funny little interplays or jabs that they used to throw at each other. I also very uncomfortable withthe muslim on the show; especially since he is going with Cam who I really like. I suspect this is another "political correct" move byfox. The whole Moslem world is a war with the west and I would rather not see this on the show unless or until Moslems try to actcivilized. I believe we are in for some hard times. Note that I live in NY and saw the towers fall. The moslem is said to be arefugee from Iran but he does not look Iranian; Iranians for the most part are Indo-Europeans and blood brothers with the Euros.He looks more Arabic which is ok but he should be more honestly portrayed. Overall, BONES continues to be one of the more intelligent shows on TV; there are many "cop & crime" shows now, most of them stink, especially Riccoli & Isles and Cold Justice. There are good ones too, such as CASTLE & THE MENTALIST, both which Ilove; again with similar premises to BONES: a little romance and crime fighting. And I like the CSI shows too. But BONES is thepilot for me and it got me started on the other shows. Now Bones will be back for season # 10 and I fear this may be the last one.The producers promise the final episode of the last season will be a doosy. It will be sad to say goodby, but who knows, I bebe premature. We will just have to wait. I did order season 9; I have all the episodes on my Video Library. I am impatient to seehow the Booth, FBi situation is going to work out. I gave season 8 only 3 stars if I remember right, but that was a big mistake: Itdeserved at least 4 and maybe 5 for some really fine episodes (except where they let the mooch Sweets move in with them).This one I gave 4 stars cause I did not like the last episode, though I do understand why they did that. I do recommend this season to anyone who hasn't seen it; watch them nail Palant...Hooray!! But Fox, please, exile Sweets & Daisy to Afganistan!!!I will be waiting for season 9 DVD from Amazon with baiting breath!! enjoy. And Emily is still so beautfull!!!!!!!

This was one of the best Bones series ever. The stories were compelling but the writers are starting to get tired and it shows. The storylines in this season was filled with lots of science fiction and psychic crap which takes away from the fun hard science feel of the show. The serial killer angle is well developed in this season but I won't go into detail here no spoilers. I pre-ordered this Bones Ninth Season meaning I paid full price and I don't feel ill used at all. The writers are running on vapors if their Ninth Season scripts are any indication but even on lifesupport Bones stands head and shoulders above most other police procedural shows. Bones is still funny. Bones still makes you care about all its characters not just Booth and Bones. They really did a great job developing Dr. Sweets from an almost child like character to a man an evolution that is fun to watch. I gave Bones a five star because; Bones still has the capacity to move me, to make he laugh, cry and feel strong emotions based on what it shares. Bones presents philosophical and moral points of view that leave me thinking for days about the right or wrong of its message. Bones makes me think what would I do in the face of some of the challenges characters face. This ninth season gave me a moral what if it were me choice I will never forget. Fiction squint Hodgins is a very rich man. The serial killer gave this rich man a choice save your fortune being drained away electronically but to do so condemn an innocent group of middle eastern humans to death via an attack drone. Seeing this choice forced upon one of the Bones characters made me wonder which would I pick were I in the same situation. I like to consider myself a moral and good man but could I let my entire life's fortune and economic security \ relative comfort it generates drain away to save poor innocent people I do not even know. That episode was so powerful that the choice it put before me is etched into my little gray cells. My heart, mind and soul are still wrestling with the question posed by a single episode of Ninth Season Bones. When a TV series can make me think and question myself on this deep level its worth its full price in my book.

The show keeps getting better with every episode I watch. The season dvds I receive are in excellent condition.

I gave this season and all other seasons before it a 5star rating because this is hands down my favorite show. I love how they go into details with both main couples on the show, everyone's favorite couple is normally Booth and Bones but mine is Hodgins and Angela, they are so great together and they make you wish that you had that kind of marriage. I love how they insert Pelant in the show, he does a great drop all the way back to season 7 as the serial killer to catch. If they could pull out at least 2 more seasons out of their hats i would be incredibly happy. I love the forensics and even the drama the insert into the show. They have steered away from the reason in why they did this show, Kathy Reichs, but it has turned into quite an amazing show. I'm so glad that they finally get married, kind of sad for Hodgins and Angela as they lose all of their money to save a bunch of kids from being attacked by a drone. I love that i got to Ralph Waite before he passed away, he is so awesome as Booth's grandfather. I hope this show lasts for many more years to come. Great Job guys, you're an awesome cast.

Was easy to order and delivery was on time. No complaints

Auch im neunten gemeinsamen Ermittlungsjahr werden FBI-Agent Booth und seine brillante Partnerin Temperance Brennan nicht vor Dutzenden Leichen, kooperationsunwilligen Verdächtigen und einer episodenübergreifenden Verschwörung im Hintergrund verschont. Nachdem die achte Staffel mit einem Schachzug des, ebenfalls äußerst scharfsinnigen, Gegenspielers Michael Pelant endete, der die Beziehung der beiden Hauptfiguren vor eine schwere Bewährungsprobe stellte, schwenken die Ereignisse vorläufig in ein ruhigeres Fahrwasser ein. Zu Beginn ist die Situation zwischen den Kollegen und Freunden durchaus angespannt, allerdings rauft man sich im Laufe der Zeit wieder zusammen und besinnt sich auf das gemeinsame Ziel, Pelant endlich dingfest zu machen. Doch als wäre das nicht genug, warten unter anderem ein toter Schlachter mit Verbindungen zu südamerikanischen Banden, ein am Kletterseil verstorbener Krebspatient, ein toter Altnazi, ein potenter und ebenso erkalteter Samenspender, eine unter mysteriösen Umständen ermordete CIA-Informantin und eine Dragqueen, die ausgetanzt hat, auf die Ermittlung ihrer Mörder. Parallel zu den obligatorischen "Leichen der Woche", baut sich im Hintergrund eine tief ins Herz der Ermittlungsbehörden reichende Verschwörung auf, bei der Pelant und die Enthüllung der Existenz eines noch dreisteren Serienmörders, dem so genannten "Phantom-Mörder", eine nicht unbedeutende Rolle spielen. Das eigentliche Highlight für alle Begleiter der Serie wird jedoch die lang erwartete Hochzeit von Booth und Brennan sein, die, wie nicht anders zu erwarten, ebenfalls alles andere als planmäßig verläuft.Im Grunde genommen ist die vorliegende neunte Staffel natürlich ordentliches Fortsetzungsfutter für alle Fans und treue Zuschauer der Reihe. Allerdings fesselten mich persönlich die Entwicklungen in Season 8 und auch die typischen "Wochenfälle" wesentlich mehr, als es in Runde neun der Fall war. Besonders der recht unspektakuläre Umgang mit dem dämonischen Pelant und das Auftauchen eines noch wesentlich gerisseneren Mörders, hätten wesentlich mehr Potential gehabt, wenn man sich ein wenig von der üblichen 40-Minuten-Handlung entfernt und mehr Mut zu einer ordentlichen Doppelfolge rund um die finalen Ereignisse jener Erzählung gehabt hätte. Wenn es ausgleichend den einen oder anderen wirklich genialen "Fall der Woche" geben würde, wäre diese inhaltliche Schwäche der Staffel vielleicht verzeihbar, aber auch in dieser Hinsicht stagniert die Serie auf einem guten, aber eben nicht mehr herausragenden Niveau. Zwar reißen die durchaus sympathisch geratenen Nebengeschichten um die alltäglichen Probleme der Blinzler und ihrer Assistenten das Ruder ein wenig herum, aber insgesamt bleibt der inhaltliche Abbau zu sehr spürbar, um hier noch einmal die Maximalwertung, wie z.B. noch in Staffel 8 vergeben, zu zücken. Dennoch bleibt sich die Serie in ihren Grundfesten mehr als treu und sollte die eingesessene Fangruppe blendend unterhalten.Kurz noch zur Verarbeitung der Box: Leider sind die Discs nach wie vor auf einer recht engen "Spindel" übereinander angeordnet, so dass man beim Herausnehmen durchaus vorsichtig sein sollte, um die Scheiben nicht zu beschädigen. Obwohl ich bisher in dieser Hinsicht keine Verluste zu beklagen habe, befürchte ich jedes Mal, das mir etwas einreißt oder zerkratzt wird. Abhilfe schaffen bekanntlich Boxen mit Einzelbefestigungen, die z.B. bei "Six Feet Under" oder auch anderen Serienboxen ihren Einsatz finden - vielleicht erleben wir das ja auch noch einmal bei "Bones".Unterm Strich bedeutet das vier gute Sterne für eine Serie, die ihren Zenit zwar spürbar überschritten hat, aber immer noch über das Figurenpotential verfügt, für jeweils knappe 40 Minuten an den Bildschirm gefesselt zu werden.

Perfect product, thank you.

....aber mal ehrlich. Wer von uns will bei solchen Serien schon immer mit der nackten Wahrheit konfrontiert werden?"Bones" überzeugt von Anfang an mit sehr sympatischen Charakteren. Angefangen bei der völlig verschrobenen Bones,hervorragend dargestellt von Emily Deschanel bis hin zu Special Agent Both über alle Kleindarsteller, welche zu richtiger Größe auflaufen, einfach, weil man ihnen in dieser Serie den Raum dafür gibt.Die Hauptdarsteller wachsen einem über die Länge aller Staffeln förmlich ans Herz.Das schaffen selten irgendwelche Serien. "NCIS", "Criminal Minds" und "Breaking Bad" mal ausgenommen.

Loved this from the first season to the last. My wife and I are great mystery lovers especially when there are good actors and character develop and strong female and male roles playing off one an other. Just sad its over. So its time to get the videos so we can watch them at anytime...without commercials. Only 3 more to get.

I love the show. I watched the show and wanted the DVD to have my own library but the first couple DVDS are skipping and sound warbled
