Critic Reviews of 100th Episode

A tweet from Anthony Ocasio of Screen Rant:

"FYI: The 100th episode of 'Bones' airing on April 8th is one of, if not the, best episode of the entire series. Plus, Zack is back!"

A tweet from Daniel Fienberg of HitFix:

"The "Bones" 100th is an example of the "When We First Met" flashback done right... Couple issues. Mostly very good."

Response from Ivey West of CliqueClack to Daniel from Hitfix

"Flashbacks were great, it was the present time stuff that I didn't like..."

Marisa Roffman from Zap2It

Marisa Roffman: Holy hell. #Bones ep 100. I mean...wow. Still reeling. An amazing episode. -

Fan: Ok, I'll try with a different question. On a 1 to 10 scale, how much are we going to be flabbergasted after the 100th?

Marisa: When I say my jaw literally dropped, I wasn't kidding. So....take that as you will.

Fan: Some critics who didn't like the 100th episode, especially the last scene. So critics are divided which means fans will be.

Marisa: Really? Hadn't seen anyone who didn't like it. But yes, fans will absolutely be split on whether they like it.

Fan: @dorv which is clickclack tv and I forget the other.

Marisa: re: jaw-dropping, I'm sticking with what I said here: [Only admins are allowed to see this link] ...it's a good step for the show.

Marisa: Hey, I'm hoping I'll be wrong and you guys will all love it. That would thrill me.

I followed @Dorv (from Clique Clack) to his Twitter, scrolled down to Saturday. He said he thought it was "dumb" and said it was bad enough that he'd stop watching if he didn't have to review it for his blog.
He also said, "Flashbacks were great, it was the present time stuff that I didn't like..."

Great. That's just freaking fantastic. <---yes, that's sarcasm.

Only reviewer I've heard throw a fit about it yet, yes some of them have said they aren't happy with the present day stuff but no one else that I know of called it "dumb" and said they'd be willing to stop watching......and we already sort of knew it was not going to end well, as evidenced in the B/B promo pic.

Here is a Twitter conversation between me and Anthony Ocasio from Screenrant:

Anthony: "FYI: The 100th episode of 'Bones' airing on April 8th is one of, if not the, best episode of the entire series. Plus, Zack is back!"

Me: "Are you a big fan of #Bones ? How did you feel about the end of the 100th episode?"

Anthony: "Huge Bones fan! The ending was so emotional. Don't want to give away too much. ;-)"

Me: "I am actually afraid to watch ~ everything I have heard about the end points to my "shipper heart" being ripped in 2."

Anthony: "t's such a wonderful story and it's great seeing Zach back. Don't be afraid. ;-)"

Me: "I already have my mind set that I am going to DVR, read recaps and then decide if I will watch. LOL!"

"I can tell you are a big Zack fan! The Gormagon storyline must have killed you! "

Anthony: "If you read recaps, the episode will be spoiled for you and you don't want. Zach was always a fun character."

What concerns me about him is that he is a self-proclaimed "fanboy". He is a big fan of the show ~ the ending must be pretty upsetting. I am scared about the 100th. I cannot imagine how much free time I would have if I quit watching 'Bones'.....

This is why I think it's gonna be an angsty heartwrenching admission of love from both of them and then them coming to an agreement they can't be together ( for whatever reason) , It's gonna break my heart, doesn't mean I'm gonna hate it though. ( I like angst). Man I don't know what I'd do if I stopped watching this show, I'd be bored out of my mind I guess

I can safely say that there is nothing short of......DB/ED leaving bones that will make me stop watching. No matter what happens in the present time in the 100th... we are getting this awesome piece of their history that makes it worth it. It will probably be heart crushing...because in the pics they both look crushed and desperate, but sometimes...that's just how life is.

"Bones and Brennan kiss -- and it's not a fantasy! Don't get too excited, fans. The 100th episode of "Bones" (7 p.m., KMSP, Ch. 9), directed by star David Boreanaz, is a flashback to six years ago, when the investigators first teamed up -- and tried to, um, feel each other out. The final scene is a bit on the sappy side, but it's nice to see that producers realize we care more about the sparks than the cases."

Argh. NO. I care about the cases!! I don't like the sound of this.

Agh, why must they torture us like this? I know going in not to expect "the moment you've been waiting for" as the promo promises, but still. If they go through with all of this-regardless of what happens in the flashback-and don't kiss or admit how they feel about one another in the final scene that would be so disappointing. From the pics it looks like we might come close but I just don't know.

What I'm wondering is if recalling the way Booth was so opposed to asking her in the beginning will sort of be her excuse to hide behind the line even longer.
