I liked Fi and Michael the first two seasons but now they're boring, putting them together would be a total bust.

Bones and Booth are so hawt there's no way they'll get together and not still remain popular and they'll keep the sexual chemistry.

I don't think Bones and Booth are going to get married but if they have a baby that'll be totally awesome.

Couples can't work and be happy. It's a rule, sorry :)

I completely agree on the smoldering vs wham.

Is it always true that the couples can't work? Yeah the tension keeps you coming back but can't there be another thing too, please? The slow dance of attraction is great, realization and valuing of one's compatibility in the non-couple pursuits such as work and play, then could be the slow courting, then the decision to be friends or something else, with real discussion about how they are feeling without silly soap distractions…I want to see trust and love people! and then the slow savor of passion; these could take years. Smoldering is so much better than wham.

Or can the excellent working relationship develop into friends of such depth that the audience comes back for that; true character stuff.

In short, I want tv to be my escape, and to show me how to be better at relating to other people… now I am going to wave my wand fix that pesky world hunger problem.

Precisely. We want them to get together. They want to get together. But they don't get together and we keep watching. No wonder BN got renewed again.

Very nice! The writers definitely need a deft touch when handling these things. As you might have guessed, I think the writers of "Bones" could take a lesson (or 300) from the writers of "Burn Notice."

Thanks, Pixie. Isn't that a fab photo? I grabbed it as soon as I found it.

Do you really want them to actually be together and be lovey-dovey and all smoochy for 60 minutes a week? Or do you want to watch the tension and the angst and be able to moan and grumble about how they should be together and come back next time for more? Personally, I think the grumbling is oodles more fun.

Hello, y Canadian buddy and comrade in arms ;)
Great article, and an absolutely stunning picture of Bones and Booth.

You know me, all about wanting certain couples to get together…Fringe's Peter and Olivia, Booth and Bones (as a couple, not as a "here is the container, we have placed magazines and xxx dvd's in the room should you need some enticement" sort of thing ;)

I am loving the chemistry between Pete and Myka on Warehouse 13- but I think as a couple they are doomed to fail.
(Besides, I want Pete for myself)

I forgot about "Mad About You."nbsp; Yes, that is pretty much when I stopped watching as well.nbsp; That show had a good cast too.

Just had to comment that Mad About You is another show where, after the baby arrived, just wasn't interesting enough anymore.
