This giveaway is over – check out my latest giveaway here!
This month, I’m giving away a season of Bones! Winner will receive his or her choice of either a season DVD set of the show (any season from 1 to 6) or a $15 Amazon gift card! See rules below for how to enter by leaving comments, sharing on Facebook, linking on Twitter, and more!
I discovered Bones less than 7 months ago, but it quickly grew to be one of my favorite shows. I caught up on the first 6 seasons perhaps a little too quickly (watching every episode between April 19 and July 19, 2011), so I joined the other fans in waiting months for the season 7 premiere. But now the long wait is over, since Bones returns tomorrow!
Bones is what happens when an FBI agent (David Boreanaz from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel) who relies on his gut teams up with a forensic anthropologist (Emily Deschanel) who prefers science and rational thinking. Agent Seeley Booth dubs Dr. Temperance Brennan “Bones,” partly because of her ability to glean clues from a victim’s skeleton. Assisting Brennan are Dr. Jack Hodgins (T. J. Thyne), Angela Montenegro (Michaela Conlin), Dr. Camille Saroyan (Tamara Taylor), Dr. Lance Sweets (John Francis Daley), and a variety of interns.
Bones season 7 premieres November 3rd, 2011 at 9PM EST/10 Central on Fox.
The winner of last month’s Psych giveaway was Esther Kim! She chose the Psych Season 2 DVD set as her prize.

I almost forgot, I kid you not, that Bones returns this week (lots going on right now). I’m looking forward to seeing how the Season 6 ending will play out in Season 7!
I absolutely love Bones!!! I,too, discovered Bones under 7 months ago and am completely obssessed. I love the way they have soooo much sexual tension and that they’re head-over-heels in love with each other but won’t admit it. I hope now that they’re having a baby they will stay together and maybe, eventually get married.
Thank you for Psych Season 2! And I am *so* happy to learn that you have become a fan of Bones! I’m amazed that you were able to catch up in such a short amount of time!
I’m really excited to see Bones’ pregnancy and how that plays out with her and Bones. I’ve heard that there will be a lot of sweet moments up ahead for those two, and I’m really looking forward to that. I have waited too long for this!!!
I found the link to your site in the Bones Discussion Forum on Hulu. I don’t remember how I discovered Hulu, but I signed up specifically to watch Bones! I saw it once when it was new while visiting one of my daughters. The first thing which struck me was that the stories were based on the novels of Kathy Reichs. I’d been reading her novels for years, so Dr. Temperance Brennan was like an old friend. She’d really been brought to life in the novels. The show is amazingly true to the Dr. Brennan I was familiar with through Kathy Reichs’ novels! I absolutely LOVE the show and am now addicted, having been able to catch up with current episodes on Hulu. I’m always happy when someone else finds and loves something I love. Bones is an extraordinary show! In this first Season 7 episode, I was astonished she was…well, now I can’t spoil it for readers who haven’t yet seen it, can I? It is an amazing episode with certain elements long-awaited by me, as, I’m sure, many others. There is an incredible amount of sweetness here. I highly recommend the series to anyone who is interested in Forensics, Anthropology, Crime Shows, Love Stories, and Interesting Characters — make that “Fascinating Characters!”
Katie, I’m looking forward to reading many more of your blogs! Anyone who writes as well as you do is much appreciated by me, and by several others I know. I hope to get to know you a bit better through reading here. It would have been nice to have been the one who introduced you to Bones, but since we seem to have some common interests, I’m sure you’ll be the one introducing me to other things which interest us both. Happy reading to me, and to everyone else who stumbles upon this blog or is directed here! 🙂
Congratulations, Esther; Psych is a form of comic relief to me. Awesome!
To Kathy, congratulations to you as well for also discovering Bones!
I think I should write PR for Bones 😉
Katie, thank you again for recommending your blog. I’m happy to have been invited.
p.s. I left a Review on StumbleUpon with the URL to this site. I definitely think this is worth stumbling upon!
Bones is one of the best shows on right now. I enjoy watching the earlier ones again. They seem to be really able to keep it original but fresh.
