And we know what happens to good shows on FOX.

People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

Yes, I didn't like the show when it first came out, but it has grown on me.

I've been a fan since day one. The characters really grow on you, and even if the plotlines are simplistic, they are interesting. One of my favorite aspects are the constant nods to Joss. In the first season, one of the characters mentioned Firefly, and more recently, there was a hotel called the Hyperion in an episode. And let's not forget the many Jossverse actors that have appeared on the show (Adam, Kali Rocha, TJ Thyne, David, Tamara Tunie). Besides House and Heroes, it's one of the few shows I watch on network TV.

It is a great show and the Firefly references make me smile. Quick though don't let anyone know we like it 'cause it'll get cancelled for sure.

I don't think it's in any danger. It seems to be one of Fox's best shows.

ETA: Last week, it was Fox's fourth highest show, after American Idol, House, and 24. http://tv.zap2it.com/tveditorial/tve_main/1,1002,272|||weekly,00.html

And, controversially, I think Boreanaz is better as Booth than he was as Angel.

It is a good show. We tried it when it started because of the Whedon connection with David, but we really liked it. We were burnt out on Law & Order robo-actors with no emotion or humor. And why can't the turn the damn lights on at that stupid CSI lab? Imagine how fast they could work if they didn't have to squint!

Milford, as fun and good as Bones is, for smart cop procedural, check out DaVinci's Inquest (syndicated and on WGN). Smartest and most realistic cop show ever!
