Bones: The Pain in the Heart (2008)
Worst Episode by Far.
I love this show. I just got introduced to this series and have been watching it avidly.
While a bit rough on the edges the writing style and characters had matured considerably. So it pains me that this utter puerile drek of an attempt at an episode was allowed to air. The writing was horrific, the characters completely disregarded and acted inconsistently with the 3 years of development.
A primary secret recurring villain that had been a mastermind was in the end a subpar boogeyman with a ridiculously low intellect. A dramatic cliff-hanger from the previous episode was replaced with a cheap 30 second resolution pulled out of the trash with no build-up or clean resolution. And the revelation regarding the serial killer's assistant well passed the suspension of disbelief.
The plethora of plot holes were ridiculous. The simplest one would have to be Booth's injury from last episode. A show that attempts to pay attention to forensic detail should not depict a two-week old bullet wound to the chest with a 2 inch single square bandage. No bruising, no sign of pain or healing, or even a sling. And apparently Booth had full recovery of motion, not even needing a sling or hospital recovery time.
I can only hope that this episode was some sort of a "dream" sequence. Yes, I'd even take that kind of a trope to excuse this poorly-written fantasy.
Even a clip-show with 5 minutes of new-footage or narrative would have been put together better...and cost less. I'd ask "what were they thinking?"...except it's obvious they weren't.
Cupid (1998)
One of the most charming and fun shows you never saw...
A unique take on a contemporary romantic comedy. Written very well, with life throwing both ups and down at the characters. Just the right touch of the charming twist of an ending to each show.
Excellent acting, great scripts. To the point of saying, "hey...that happened to me!"
Sadly like many great shows, this one was mismanaged into oblivion by the network, ABC.
Changing time slots, preempting a new episode for a rerun of a crummy movie instead.
It's like they wanted the show to fail.
Years later, I still miss this show.
I mean this show even has Human (the Pretenders) as a theme song...how cool is that?
