It wasn't clever it was LAZY and CHEAP. I was already annoyed because of the stupid fake funeral, but then oooh it's one of them, and OOH it's Zack - don't be ridiculous, of course it isn't Zack, there is NOTHING in his characterisation to suggest that it could possibly be. It makes no SENSE. I hadn't remembered the writers' strike - did they not have the plot decided beforehand? I guess he wanted to leave anyway and that's why he got written out, but surely SOMEONE would have pointed out that it was SHIT. I'm SO cross about it.
I am also cross that I posted about loving Bones and then THIS happens.
Yes, they will totally have had the plot worked out, but people (ALL THE PEOPLE CLARE, ALL OF THEM) they pretend that if there hadn't been a writers' strike then it would have had more episodes and more chance to grow and develop and be clever and intricate and well written, as if writing it well would make SENSE OF IT WHEN NO NO NO A MILLION WRONGNESSES.
It was not wrong to love Bones, though. It seems like such a natural thing to do until they just go RUBBISH WITHOUT PROPER WARNING.
For me season 3 of Bones coincided with the end of The Shield. It was like ALL TV HATED ME. It was a low point.
