DON'T GET ME STARTED ON BONES, I HAVE SEVERE FEMINIST FAN-RAGE WHEN IT COMES TO THAT SHOW.

Seriously, I was completely intensely into the fandom for seasons 1-3 (bordering on BNF status when it came to smutty fanfic) and then I was SO OVER IT because I wanted to BUNCH BOOTH IN THE FACE. >:(

Yeah, that show is a mess.

Booth just became this moralizing figure and I could not handle it.

Word. The combination of "Booth is a patronizing asshole" and "Brennan can only be healed by the magic of Booth's penis values" plus the ruining of Jack and Angela's relationship totally had me disgruntled, then they wrote Zack out and it was the final straw.

Oh man, it's even worse now. Granted, they've at least fixed the Hodgins/Angela thing, which I'm thankful for, but it was the most contrived plot device in the history of plot devices.

Camille Saroyan is the only reason why I am still around. Her and Hodgins.

Cam is the sole shining beacon of awesomeness when it comes to Bones. I want to be her when I grow up. ;)

ME TOO. Girl is fierce. Too bad she's overlooked a lot of the time because she doesn't fit into a romance narrative.

Someone somewhere wrote Cam fic about her past working law enforcement in NYC... and how she was there during 9/11. It was emotional and beautiful and touching, which just made me go 'STFU WRITERS THIS WOMAN IS SO FUCKING INTERESTING" even more. :P
