Only six eps in did this show already jump the shark or blow up the fridge or whatever the current phrase is?

Well, I know the sci-fi stuff was explained but it was too conspiracy theory for me.
This ep really didn't click for me. Too forced. He found everything a little too easily this time especially the plate out in the Everglades.

What was the pint in making that guy appear to be alien and have super strength. Didn't make sense.

It didn't feel true to the universe in the show.

Interesting. His arch enemy is Nikita.

And why hasn't WB booked her on the show yet? You know that's a meeting waiting to happen!

I agree. This show is fine when left to its own devices. But it looks like for these crossover shows, the writing has to sink to the same retarded level as Bones. I DO NOT want to watch BONES!! Hopefully they've had their fill of these stupid crossovers (WTF is the use for this anyway?!) and we can go back to our regular scheduled programming (and writing).

Nearly all the sites that track ratings expect The Finder to be cancelled. Too bad, it's quirky and fun.

Technically yes. Jack Hodgins is a character on Bones.

You could have said the same thing for the episode with Sweets earlier this season since he's also on Bones.

Walter and Leo were introduced on an episode of Bones last season, which was technically the backdoor Pilot for this series. The creator of The Finder is also the creator and Producer of Bones.

They also introduced a 3rd character, Ike, played by Saffron Burrows. The network didn't like her, so they dumped her. The Isabel character was introduced into this series as a replacement for Ike.
