Bones - The Complete First Season

Brilliant writing and acting make this one of the greatest TV series EVER! The DVD is excellent except for the awkward way you get from one program to the next. Seller's prompt delivery was a plus as well. Rating: AAAAA+++++.

I've been an avid fan of David Boreanaz ever since he stepped scene on Buffy: The Vampire Slayer.

I was roughly 16 and was happy to see his career blossom onto Angel for 5 seasons.

When Angel was unfortunately axed, rumor began shortly after that he was going to be on a show on Fox about forensics.

CSI was pretty popular at the time and I thought "Not another knockoff". I tried watching it for pure support of him but found I could not get into the show.

A couple years later, I watched the first few disc of Season 1 and found myself completely engrossed in the characters.

I love the way the show has grown in the 3 years it's been on (going into 4 this fall) as well as the way the stories have gotten more complex yet humorous.

When you follow an actor or character, you always hope to see something familiar yet something new.

I think this show's kept it fresh and if you enjoy more storyline than "who did it?"; this will be a show for you!

I love the show. The characters drive the show more than the rather realistic effects. My only complaint about this DVD collection is the way the discs themselves are put together. The episodes are on the front and back of the discs, and the writing on the discs are so small it is hard for me to tell side a from b. The packaging does not tell you where the break between the sides are.
I am happy to say that this was corrected on the second season, which was also excellent.Bones - The Complete Second Season

I have yet to meet anyone who has given this show a chance and NOT fallen in love with it. You get the exciting and interesting procedural element with the cases and the science but this show goes one step further than most procedural crime dramas. It really focuses on the characters and their relationships and it adds comedy which most other crime dramas lack. This show brings it all...drama, comedy, romance, action, etc. This is one show I would definitely watch if you haven't already!

I love this series. It's like CSI, except it's character driven, not just clever ways to solve crimes. The relationship between Boreanaz and Deschanel is what makes this show worth watching.
