Pretty Damn Good
Pretty good dang TV show! Each episode is different and I really appreciate it. Definitely not a type of tv show for someone who is very squeamish. Some scenes are very gory. If you have no problem with gross stuff, then you should have no problem while having a meal.
The story plot is pretty good. Each character has a good arch story. Recommend it!

Don't know what the previous reviewer is smoking...
Saying that Bones does not contain any wokeness whatsoever is utter garbage.
Let's just list a few things shall we?
Female lead is automatically smarter and better at everything than everyone else, even though her line delivery sounds like she is reading from cue cards. She obviously does not know what half of her lines actually mean. She is a scientist, so automatically an atheist, and considers herself the most intelligent and beautiful person in every room.
Secondary female lead was an art major, but is apparently soooo intelligent that she can invent and program the world's most amazing supercomputer that can display holographic images and do anything, and I mean anything, by just pushing a few buttons on a touchscreen. She bounces back and forth between straight and gay lovers, one of whom is a gigantic black man that wasn't intelligent enough to sign anything more than a X for his name on a marriage certificate, but when introduced in the show has all of a sudden become eloquent and well spoken, with all the women on the show just fawning over how amazing he is.
Tertiary female lead is introduced after the first season or so as the new boss, a black woman (or part anyway), because having a black male as the previous boss apparently wasn't woke enough. And I actually liked the previous boss. She 'becomes' a parent of a 16 year old girl, whom she'd 'sort of' helped raise for a couple years when the child was a baby. They act like she is the authority on parenting, even though she didn't have anything to do with actually raising the child. She ends up marrying a Muslim man who started out with a very bad accent to appear to be a foreigner, but gets found out and has a normal American accent for the majority of his time on the show. They even convince his parents, who are VERY devout Muslims that their relationship is fine, when in real life they would have probably beheaded her for even attempting to date him.
Male lead is the only redeeming main character on the entire show, even though he starts off as 'For God and Country' with a decent sense of morality, and ends up marrying the cold fish atheist female lead.
Secondary male lead starts off as a kooky conspiracy theorist who is likeable enough, but goes full woke retard on a number of subjects, puts up with the antics of the emotionally driven art major, gets cucked by said art major, and still marries her.
The entire show pushes leftard drivel, from homosexuality to trannies, guns are bad mmmkay, everyone sleeping with everyone, white people are racist, etc. etc. etc.
The episodes are interesting enough if you can get past the woketardedness, but I would not recommend it as woke-free by any stretch of the imagination.
