PUBLIC MARKS from vacelts with tags "T.J. Thyne" & television

The World Series is over and the election has been decided so now we can get back to our regularly scheduled programs on Fox. And the return of Bones is marked with a case that proved pretty emotional for Angela in “The Skull in the Sculpture.”

When a decomposed leg falls into an elevator from the shaft above on, Booth and Bones must navigate their way through the cubicle farm to find the killer in “Crank in the Shaft.”

Since last season’s Bones finale, Zack has been missing from the series, presumably cooling his heels in a mental hospital after killing a man and aiding Gormogon.

I thought last night’s Bones was going to be a fun episode in which Bones and Booth poked fun at wannabe singers and shows like American Idol. However, I was not prepared for the episodes’ serious ending that left one of their own in peril.

After a season finale last spring full of surprises, Bones opens its third season with a nail biter — or should I say bone biter — of a mystery.

The season finale of Bones was a busy one for Special Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) and his partner Dr. Temperance “Bones” Brennan (Emily Deschanel). Not only did they solve the unusual, but bittersweet murder of Chelsea Cole, a victim of Werner’s Syndrome, the yprepared for their honorary roles as maid of honor and best man at Angela’s (Michaela Conlin) and Hodgins’ (T.J. Thyne) wedding.
