I love Angela.

I think she's sweet, and vivacious, and I love how everything comes naturally to her, and she doesn't make a big deal of stuff (compared to other characters who are similar).

But to be fair, I feel like Bones in general does disservice to its characters. I hate how they made childfree Bones into Momzilla, how Booth dumped Hannah for not wanting to marry him (but was okay with Bones not being the marrying kind),how Sweets is shown to be incompetent even while he's not (and how Daisy is basically a caricature of herself) and let's not even mention what the did to Zach. Angela has suffered too, but I think compared to some other characters she's still doing well. The only things tat bugs me is the somewhat caricaturist portrayal of her father and their relationship.

As for her job: it might not be real, but I sort of wish it was.

[(Anonymous)]

It's a real job. It's just not as glamorous as TV makes it seem.

[(Anonymous)]

The same is true for all jobs, though.

Brennan is momzilla? Brennan who takes her job very seriously is momzilla? I don't see it, sry.

[kallanda_lee]

Have you even seen the episodes after she gave birth?

You can take your job seriously and still be a momzilla. She is totally controlling about the baby. She basically terrorized the people at the daycare center up to the point where they would refuse to take her child. She kicks her own dad out because he forgot his cell phone and didn't pick up the very minute she was checking up on him and the baby. Yeah, sorry, that woman went batshit insane after spawning. It's completely disproportionate behavior.

[otakugal15]

Do you not get her past? That has everything to do with why she's protective about that baby. She wants to make sure Christine is loved and cared for BY HER PARENTS and never have to go through what she did.

That doesn't make her momzilla.

[kallanda_lee]

There's a difference between being loving and controlling. Anyway, you clearly see it differently. We'll just have to agree to disagree.

[(Anonymous)]

Agreeing hardcore with you. I just can't even get back into Bones because of this 180 on the one of the most wonderful female characters I've ever known :x

[kallanda_lee]

Thank you, I'm glad I'm not the only one. It really pisses me off because I want to like Brennan. She was one of my favourite characters ever on TV. But they sort of ruined her for me.

[velvet_mace]

Holy shit but she totally turned into momzilla and helicopter parent supreme last season. I almost rage quit the show over it. For one thing, it seemed so incredibly out of character (I'm going to chalk it up now to some kind of hormonal thing), for another it was obnoxious beyond all belief, and third and most importantly it hogged the show.

Brennen literally couldn't say a complete sentence some episodes without including her daughter in it somehow. And we are talking about discussing her job. Somehow or other some ridiculously trivial detail of her infant daughters life crept into everything. She couldn't go through a single day of work without checking on her precious child 10 times and taking pictures of the babies poop. No one was good enough for her Christine. She had the best of everything, except for giving birth in the manger episode which was... God I don't even know. Poor Booth just kind of stood back shell shocked and tried desperately to keep on her good side all season long.

It was awful.

Thankfully this season they backed the shit up on that. Christine shows up for maybe a minute or two here and there, but never in the middle of a case anymore. Brennen's back to being competent at her job again. As, thank god, it should be.

[(Anonymous)]

I would argue (at least from what I've seen) that Sweets isn't shown to be incompetent. At least, that's not the impression I got. Booth and Bones don't take him seriously, because Bones doesn't believe in the merits of psychology (as an entirely analytical person) and Booth doesn't take him seriously because he's a young. So even though he is good at his job and has proven time and again that he's valuable and perfectly competent, those two just brush off his expertise because of their own biases and character flaws. It was only when they found out about his abuse that they realized they were being hurtful and started trying to include him.
