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.

Caitlin Moore Washington Post What else will I watch while cleaning my apartment? Which techno theme song will I get stuck in my head now? It was not the best show on TV, but it was just what I needed. I make no bones about it. Sep 19, 2018 Full Review Kelly Connolly Entertainment Weekly Bones seemed poised to outlive us all. But it's also a show about the basic biological truth that everything ends, coupled with the reminder that it's up to us, for the duration of our little lives, to find the joy in that. Sep 18, 2018 Full Review Emily St. James Vox At its height, Bones was genuinely entertaining, with solid mysteries of the week, good team banter, and a will-they/won't-they that kept the show humming...you could tune in to a random episode in a later season and still have a pretty good time. Sep 18, 2018 Full Review Laura Burrows IGN Movies Overall it was a slam-dunk when it comes to arbitrary finales completely devoid of relative facts or actual conclusion. Rated: 6/10 Sep 19, 2018 Full Review Nick Venable CinemaBlend Thanks for all the laughs, the tears, the performances and the fears, Bones. There will never be another one quite like you..Bones' last hurrah keeps with tradition because tradition is meaningful. Sep 19, 2018 Full Review Christine Orlando TV Fanatic Series finales can be tricky...To do it in a way that satisfies everyone is almost impossible, but Bones season 12 episode 12 left me smiling and content, which is far better than several of my favorite shows have done. Rated: 4.8/5 Sep 19, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Kata S I have never in my life felt this absolute giddy happiness with an ending of a story. I LOVE this story, and will watch it again and again. It was written and acted and done so beautifully, that I'm just extremely happy (and sad that it ended) but all good things must end. Thank you to every actor and crew member for this journey. Now I feel quirkey and adventorous. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review Dinos K just another stupid copaganda, like almost all Fox TV shows Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/23/24 Full Review Jeandré T Best Show EVER! It is so devastating that the show ended... Bones was so well written and pulled you in, as if you were self there! I can't believe they didn't make another season! I watched Bones for so long time, i don't know what I am going to watch now... I guess I have to watch it again!... Their choice of Actors fot the characters was perfect! The actors bring life to the show and make it real. They are rolemodels to the youth. If you ask me, they missed out big by not greating a 13 season. Bones was a part of me, which now makes me feel depressed when it ended (Expressing how much I liked it!) I would DEFINITELY recommend! And now I will always be HOT BLOODED!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/28/24 Full Review Alan M One of my favorite shows. Season 12 as good as the rest. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/22/23 Full Review isa e was tired and played out, lost all the charm of earlier seasons Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/19/23 Full Review steve d It all becomes a pleasant but predictable final season.
