Is the 9 PM show the one that was supposed to air last week? Odd that they would show that episode after the one that was supposed to air tonight.

I don't think it really matters with this show since it's not serialized. Each episode pretty much stands alone.

Damn too many conflicts. Only recorded the circus show. This is why online replays are a must.

The circus episode was great. Even if the premise was ridiculous seeing Bones and Booth under cover was worth it, especially Bones' outfit and how much she got into the act.
Over the last few weeks I've watched the entire series for the first time and I just finished. I really like this show. Emily Deschanel as Bones really makes the show for me. More than a few times she made an odd comment or said something almost to herself and I had to rewind and catch it again because it was so amusing. Boreanaz is good too, although he tries a bit hard sometimes. I prefer Bone's subtle humor, however they are at their best together. Often the best scene of an episode is just them two in the car. The "will they won't they" is a way over played, but as they quoted in an early episode "journeys end in lovers meeting".
My only major gripe with the show is the Hodgins/Angela relationship. It's painfully obvious that it's just there to give the characters some, well, character outside of the lab. The relationship doesn't seem to have any emotional logic, instead they do whatever benefits the plot. But worst of all it just all seems like a waste of screen time.
Oh, and I love the addition of Sweets. He's great whether he's having a session with Bones and Booth or just interacting with the team.
Overall, I think this is now my new favorite procedural, which basically puts it ahead of House, Life, The Mentalist. It might be tied with Psych if that counts as a procedural.

Haha. Psych is technically a procredural, but the plot on that show plays 3rd to everything elese.
I also recently started the show and have to give the creators credit, they improved a lot since the first season (wasn't a big fan originally).
