Bones: Good?

From the few episodes I've seen (disc 1 of season 1) I got mixed feelings about the show Bones, which I started watching last week.

Oh, right. Hello there. Yup, I'm alive.

Back to Bones. Witty! Smart! A Sexed-up CSI! These descriptions on the back of the box seriously discouraged me from buying it, but Target's sale pricing and David Boreannaz's coy smile on the cover got me over that speed bump easily enough.

The pilot was....okaaaaay. I suppose. But I'm happy to say that so far no episode has repeated the oh-so-terrible effects on the holographic projector from the pilot, not has the music been so awkwardly placed. I'd like to imagine that the season really starts at the 2nd episode. Then you could imagine a much more entertaining backstory in which an anthropologist and an FBI ex-sniper are working together.
Plot wise, it's your basic crime drama serial episode-by-episode. Victim found dead, body is analysed, very suspicious person found, later discovered to not be the murderer (I like to think of this as the Scooby-Doo suspect), and later they discover the killer is one of the few people they questioned before. The crimes so in the first six episodes are creative enough, but then again if they weren't, I doubt it would be a show.

I like the characters, with sometimes nerdy humor; sometimes just watching Brennan be a terrible people person is funny too. I like the typical genius grad student, the other scientists that work at the Jeffersonian, and I tend to think all the supporting characters in each episode are regularly well done. Music, like I said, gets better after the pilot. Besides that, I guess the main reason why I like the show so far is it want to entertain/intrigue you thoroughly through each episode, and I think it does that well enough.

I'll post another review probably after I finish the first season. If anyone has seen the show and would like to voice their opinion, feel free to do so in comments!
