Season 8, Episode 9
2/10
Bad, but not QUITE worst
6 April 2024
Warning: Spoilers
I must respectfully disagree with those who label this the worst episode ever. That dishonor would have to go to the pointless "altered reality" episodes, such as the 50s movie thing, or Booth hallucinating that he is a nightclub owner. Or any episode tainted with Daisy Wick...

Shout out to Hitchcoc! S/he is dead on! This camera gimmick was merely unpleasant on a 25 minute episode of M*A*S*H. It is outright obnoxious on a 47 minute procedural!

Even bigger shout out to Brett-Michael-Johnson! I always blamed the M*A*S*H* staff for that dumbass gimmick. Thanks for cueing us in. Now we know that a Bogart movie is to blame!

Every bit as off-putting is the pointless, grating Cyndi Lauper. She ruins the Cam/Aristoo wedding episode, she REALLY ruins the Booth/Brennan wedding episode, and she would ruin this one if the writers hadn't right out of the box.

Not quite worst. QUITE.
