Bones: The Ghost in the Machine (2012)
Season 8, Episode 9
10/10
Probably the only thumbs up
1 August 2015
I am one of the people who have never actually watched an episode of Bones. I was asleep in front of the television and woke up as the show was starting. Groggy, I just sat there and continue watching… was interested to see Cyndi Lauper show up on screen.

I thought the storyline was well written, despite the cinéma vérité or whatever you call that style of shooting. Also, I picked up right away that the spiritual aspect was someone out of scope for a normal episode of this program. Still, I like the way that the mystery is played out, the twist at the end, and even the metaphysical appearance of the kid with the skateboard as the young girl realize that the boy had a crush on her.

Then, I come to IMDb and see everybody trashing the episode, LOL! Well… If I were a long term fan of the show, who knows? However, as someone who's never actually watched a single episode… I thought it was well done. I did get the MASH connection, but ideas are always recycled here in Hollywood, are they not?
