Prime Picks
Bones (FOX): Repeat. Brennan’s father makes a surprise appearance while she and Booth are investigating “The Killer in the Concrete.” Do you remember Vanished from last season? It was cancelled by FOX and had an ending that left quite a bit of details left to be pondered. It looks like a more conclusive ending to the mystery on that show will come on the upcoming season of Bones. Somehow the mysteries left hanging will come into play with a case that Brennan and Booth are investigating. What do you think of a crossover episode with a show that has already been cancelled?
House (FOX): Repeat. A photographer of the famous collapses during a photo shoot and is brought into the hospital. Cameron and Chase’s relationship comes out into the open.
