Bones, a darkly amusing procedural currently in its eighth season, is inspired by real-life forensic anthropologist and novelist Kathy Reichs. Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) is a highly skilled forensic anthropologist who works at the Jeffersonian Institute in Washington, D.C., and writes novels on the side. When the standard methods of identifying a body are useless (when the remains are so badly decomposed, burned or destroyed), law enforcement calls on Brennan for her uncanny ability to read clues left behind in the victim's bones. While most people can't handle Brennan's intelligence, her drive for the truth or the way she flings herself headlong into every investigation, Special Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) of the FBI's Homicide Investigations Unit is an exception.
A former Army sniper, Booth mistrusts science and scientists - the "squints", as he calls them - who pore over the physical evidence of a crime. But even he cannot deny that the combination of his people-smarts and Brennan's scientific acumen makes them a formidable duo.
The strength of Bones has always been its characters and “The Future in the Present” continues that tradition, delivering a strong ensemble performance. While their goal focuses around restoring Brennan (Emily Deschanel) to the lab, each of the six main characters has their moment in the spotlight.
As the camera opens on a pastoral picnic in the foothills of a very fake mountain, it’s revealed that three months have passed since the serial killer Pelant (Andrew Leeds) framed Brennan for murder, forcing her to go on the lam with her father, Max (Ryan O’Neal), and infant daughter, Christine.
It appears that all the brilliant forensic anthropologist needed to soften her harsher edges was a progeny because the opening scene with she and her daughter is nothing short of touching. Clearly she misses Booth (David Boreanaz) and is growing weary of a life on the run.
Of course she is still the top scientist in her field and she’s lost nothing of the essentials of her character, but she has grown and hopefully that growth will only continue.
Meanwhile back in DC, Booth is stuck at a desk, forced to watch Special Agent Hayes Flynn (Reed Diamond) take over his office and continue a full FBI pursuit of Brennan. Boreanaz plays an excellent impatient man, giving the picture of a caged tiger just waiting for his chance to pounce.
He and Diamond work very well off of one another, giving and taking barbs and exchanging weary looks that make you believe they’ve been at this song and dance routine about Brennan’s whereabouts for far too long. Not surprising, then, that Booth heads out as soon as there’s a body that could be tied to Pelant and he doesn’t leave Brennan’s side once she finds him.
Also, it’s good to see the more serious, cop, side of Booth come out to play.
I found the first 15 minutes or so to be a little "trite". The characters didn't seem to fit comfortably in their skin. But by the end of the pilot I was very much interested, especially in the forensics aspect. I have a friend who is an anthropologist and I'm going to get her opinion about the Dr. Brennan character.
The series has a lot of potential and I especially like that unlike X Files, these characters are dealing with "real life" events rather than other worldly events.
