meganbmooreI have watched the first ep. of S2. I am sure I shall have both pertinent and squeeing things to say later, but for now: CAM!!!!
Seriously. I had heard that there was a new female boss replacing Goodman(though hopefully he's not completely gone...) who was of the dreaded 3rd party variety, but I didn't know much about her.
I love her. My sophomore season shows are being so amazingly kind to me in terms of giving me new female characters to like (please tell me she doesn't fall victim to rabid fandom hatred like Jo did...) Cam is that rarest of rare character: a truly likable, entertaining bitch. Best thing of the character type since Cordelia Chase(though, of course, a very, very different character....I feel a confrontation between those two would be the most entertaining thing I'd see for years...) She's no nonsense and takes no prisoners and will cheerfully devour you alive if you cross her, but she's utterly loyal to her people, even the ones who don't like her yet.
I'm actually a bit bitter that she's being used as a third party, as that NEVER fares well. Still, sometimes these characters come out ahead once that storyline runs its course. I shall hold out hope.
My one complaint is that the "I intimidate people" conversation with Booth felt a little forced...it did a good job of helpong to establish her attitude, and his parting line was ace, the bulk of the actual exchange felt shoehorned in to establish a rapport between the two, which I think was handled better in their other scenes together.
Oh, here's a Bones/Booth vid I like:
