If you thought TVLine’s review of the big news stories breaking at the time of our January 2011 launch was a trip down memory lane, you ain’t seen nothing yet.
As our fifth birthday celebration marches on, here we recount the storylines that were unspooling at the time — on shows that are still with us (including Bones, Castle and Grey’s Anatomy) or have since passed on (such as Smallville, V and The Office.) Fringe, we must remind you, is currently airing Season 8 Over There.
What waylaid Chuck‘s proposal to Sarah? What was bothering Criminal Minds‘ Reid? Who crashed a Desperate Housewife’s nascent romance? You may recall the answers to those “spoilers,” but click through this slideshow just to be sure. (Warning: May induce waves of nostalgia.)
Oh Hannah, the dreaded girlfriend of Booth. While I was never a fan of hers( and particularly hated those scenes that” we don’t need to see with Booth and Brennan” that we were subjected to with Booth and Hannah) she to me was never as awful as everyone made her out to be. And given Aubry’s having too much of scenes with Booth now its funny that Hannah manipulating air time with him was such a big deal( she never had as much air time with him as Aubry does now) We can mostly agree that Bones took too long to get Booth and Brennan together but it is what it is and Hannah served a purpose. I know lots of Bones fans hated season six but Bones gave us some pretty good episodes especially in the second half( The Blackout in the Blizzard and The Doctor in the Photo are two of my favorites of all time) Hannah was neither terrible or terrific but in the end she made Brennan see how she felt about Booth and THAT was what was necessary for her and Booth to get together I would also say that her presence led us to seeing the best performances of Emily Deschanel bar none( especially Doctor in the Photo) Now if only FOX would give us a return date.
Nope, Hannah wasn’t bad at all. She just wasn’t Bones and people hated her for it.
Kudos to whichever writer was responsible for the Over There joke.
Now I’m wondering if The West Wing is still on Over There? Last I knew it was in it’s 11th season.
Sorry – cancelled after Season 12, but Rob Lowe came back for the finale. –AltMgmt.
so I guess in some other THERE Happy Endings and Bunheads and any other show tvline wishes didn’t get cancelled is still running?
Not true. Some get picked up by the MIA Network.
Awe this makes me miss some shows. Lile House. :)
