I agree. This fits in with all the reasons I've hated Bones the last few seasons. I loved that in the early seasons neither her nor Booth were objectively right. His religion and her atheism and his emotional nature and her rational nature were both equally valid and important.

Then somewhere along the way the show decided that Booth was right. We started seeing ghosts and things. Brennan started learning lessons about being more like Booth (and Angela) while Booth never had to learn lessons about being more like Brennan. It got worse when they had a kid. And now they are crossing Bones with a show that has the supernatural in it. Ugh.

Yep, I agree with most of this. Personally, though, I feel like the show has always leaned in a pro-Booth direction though; remember that preachy episode about monogamy, where Brennan was dating two guys at once? And the thing with pony play, that was all Booth judging all over the place? Just...ugh. After 15 seasons, I hate Booth so much.

Oh, yes, the pony play episode where only "making love" as in straight missionary was good sex (whereas in my mind, any sex between two people who love each other is making love, and any sex where everyone involved is happy and getting what they want is good sex). I hated that episode so much. I did feel like those were more one-off episodes, though, and Booth was sometimes wrong in early seasons as well. And his religion was portrayed as more religion, as belief rather than objective fact the way it more is now.

Wait, has it actually been 15 seasons? That seems long.

:googles:

It's on its 11th season? Really? Too keep it going that long is kinda crazy, actually.

Yeah, I meant 11--no idea where the 15 came from.

11 is still, like, 6 seasons too long, though.

You are stronger than me. I quit watching the show when it started getting like that.

I quit a couple seasons ago. I really loved it so I stuck longer than I should. The thing that drove it over the edge for me was first the standard gender roles in their parenting even though previously Brennan hadn't wanted kids and Booth had been a great father, and then Brennan agreeing to marriage and actually wanting to be married.

I didn't really like the Bones insert. The first words out of Bones' mouth were *about her kids* (they now have two). It was just...yuck.

Honestly, the whole deal with them was pointless - they had no reason whatsoever to cross the two shows, and nothing 'supernatural' even happened around Booth and Bones, so...what was the point? It was just lackluster.
