Dr. Temperance Brennan, a forensic anthropologist who works at the Jeffersonian Institution and also writes books, has an impressive ability to read clues from victims' bones. Consequently, law enforcement calls her to assist with investigations when remains are so badly decomposed, burned or destroyed that standard identification methods are useless. Brennan is teamed with Special Agent Seeley Booth, a former Army sniper, who mistrusts science and scientists when it comes to solving crimes but who has developed respect for Brennan, both professionally and personally.

Kelly Connolly Entertainment Weekly Bones' best courtroom drama pits Brennan and her relatives against her work family... Sep 19, 2018 Full Review Emily St. James Vox It was a strange plot twist, to say the least, and it made less and less sense the more the show tried to explain it... Sep 18, 2018 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand When Dr. Lance Sweets (John Francis Daley) arrives in the third season as an FBI psychiatrist assigned to monitor their partnership with scheduled sessions, what could have been an awkward narrative device blossomed into a part of the screen family. Apr 30, 2025 Full Review Rachel Kipp PopMatters Part of the blame falls with last year's Writer's Guild of America strike. Hollywood shut down right around the time that the Bones writers were getting to the meat of a complex story. Rated: 4/10 Sep 18, 2018 Full Review Laura Burrows IGN Movies Sweets was like a breath of fresh air to the cast and the final few episodes show promise for season four... Rated: 6.8/10 Sep 18, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
