Oh Ace, I Forgot Just How Cute You Are


Last night was one brillianty wacky Monday night of television on Fox. Starting with my new favorite "Bones," which guest starred both Ace Young and Brandon Rogers, past American Idol contestants. I love it when TV shows cross over. Like when the guys from Happy Days showed up on Laverne and Shirley, or when Briscoe and Curtis helped out the SVU team.


Neither Ace not Brandon actually spoke on the show, although they both did some singing (Does that earn them their SAG cards? Something to look into...). Ace smiled a lot and looked real pretty but, lucky for him, didn't actually have to play a corpse. The whole episode was peppered with references to AI, with Booth calling Brennan "Paula" at one point. At the end they all converge on a cabaret bar where Brennan gets on stage and starts singing an atrocious version of "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" until Booth gets shot by a crazy stalker. Thankfully, it's not the season finale and we'll see next week whether Booth lives or dies. I can't imagine that they would kill him off since that would basically end the show.


The music theme continued on "House" where Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit (remember them?) played a bartender. He wasn't half bad. The show was fantastic and trippy, with an injured House slipping in and out of a hypnotic state to try and figure out a medical mystery related to a bus crash that he was involved in. I was holding my breath the last five minutes as House finally figured out that he was trying to remember Dr. Wilson's girlfriend Amber (cutthroat bitch) who had been seriously injured in the accident. It was so great! Can't wait for next weeks season finale.
