Not sure why this show doesn't get a lot of attention around here. I always find it interesting and well-written, and the character development is usually done very well.
Although, boy, that promo pic is really badly photoshopped.

I've always been lukewarm on this show. It's a weird mix of cop show/procedural but the cases of the week are almost always underwritten from that angle. So, the real meat of the show is the characters and their interactions. Unfortunately, only half the regular cast (Booth, Bones and Sweets) are worth watching.
In some ways Castle is a more focused version of this show. Which is not to say it's better since as character driven shows it's highly subjective.
