Bones: Christmas

December 6, 2016

“The Man in the Fallout Shelter” Season 1, Episode 9

Oh early Bones, how I miss you. I can't believe how long this show has lasted, and am sad that it will be ending next year (although it's definitely time). This was the first Christmas episodes and was always one of my favorites. When the team at the Jeffersonian is exposed to a bio-hazard, they are forced to remain there for a quarantine period. Everyone is upset that they will not get to follow through with their holiday plans, but they make the best of it, giving each other gifts and putting out make-shift decorations. This episode was important for getting to know the backstories of the characters and helping them bond over something other than work. This episode is really sweet and brings about the warm feelings we all yearn for during the holiday season. Of course, a murder case is also solved but you know... that can still be merry. I highly recommend watching this episode, especially if you're a fan of the show and want a little nostalgia in your life.
