Season 8, Episode 24
1/10
If this is the best they can do, it's time to end the show

Warning: Spoilers
This season has been the worst season of the show's run. The character of Pelant, as with many recurring villains in shows today, is all powerful, super-intelligent and apparently now super-rich. There is absolutely nothing based in reality when it comes to this character and I, for one, cringe and almost do not watch any episodes with him in them.

It's time for Pelant to die, but instead we get a weak and lazy season ender that, if this is the best the writers can come up with, should be the series ender. Don't get me wrong - I love a good cliffhanger. This just isn't one.

Brennan's sudden decision to marry Booth was, well, sudden. A decision such as that should take more than the first 20 minutes of an episode. And then for Booth to fall on his sword and essentially break Brennan's heart because of his sense of honor instead of doing the right thing and sharing with her the burden...I just wanted to throw something at the TV. I kept looking at the clock hoping that they were going to squeeze out something extra special and really make me like this episode in the last few minutes. But, alas, it was not to be and the screen faded to black confirming my utter disappointment.
