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.

Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times Having proved that patience is indeed a virtue, especially among television executives, Bones has more than earned its moment of joy. Oct 17, 2013 Full Review Robert Bianco USA Today One of TV's steadiest performers. Sep 16, 2013 Full Review Michelle Carlbert TV Equals I have to admire the writers for giving us a storyline that had me alternately laughing and thinking that I was going to lose my lunch. Nov 12, 2013 Full Review Laurel Brown Zap2it.com After the premiere episode it's nice to see the couple all functional again. Granted, it takes a murder... to truly accomplish this, but we take what we can get. And the results really are quite entertaining. Sep 24, 2013 Full Review Heather Donmoyer Screen Rant The shift toward Booth-centric story lines... give even the most hesitant viewers a reason to stick around just a little bit longer and see what else the ninth season of Bones has in store. Sep 23, 2013 Full Review Miranda Wicker TV Fanatic With a lot of tell-not-show and with the series using new characters as intermediaries between our central pair, [the premiere] felt phoned in. Rated: 3/5 Sep 17, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

steve d After Pelant the new arch is a bit of a let down, but the show is still fun. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review russell h Pelant continues to be a mainstay in the series and we get a nice wedding that probably should have been saved for the end of the series. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Season 9 of Bones moves the series in a new direction and takes its characters to some interesting places. The writing is particularly good, and is able to creating character stories that evolve throughout multiple episodes and often overshadow the crime-of-the-week. Some of the season's over-arcing plotlines include the hunt for Pelant, Booth and Brennan getting married, Cam dealing with an identity theft, and the Jeffersonian team uncovering a new conspiracy involving a mysterious Ghost Killer. As usual, an impressive number of guest stars are lined up, featuring Freddie Prinze Jr., John Ratzenberger, and Joaquim de Almeida. Even in its ninth season, Bones continues to find ways to be fresh and exciting. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Bones evolved to high-profile entertaining material with a smarter, stronger set of story-lines. So it happens also to give fresh expectations to future installments. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Fantastic cast, fun, love-able characters, emotional. One of those shows you watch because you love the cast and the characters they play. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
