TV GUIDE: Critic's Guide to Thursday TV: A Gripping Grey's Anatomy, Bones' New Intern and More!
Nov 10, 2011

... There's a new intern helping the Jeffersonian team solve its grisly puzzles on Fox's Bones (9/8c), and he's a "simple country boy" charmer named Finn Abernathy (the likable Luke Kleintank) who disarms just about everyone — except curmudgeonly AUSA Caroline, who objects to the kid's juvie past, and Hodgins, who can't help patronizing the North Carolina boy's twangy lingo. To be fair, Finn is given to saying corny stuff like, "I'm as honest as the sunshine on the back of a honeybee." To which Hodgins retorts: "Why is that honest?" — later adding, "This is the Jeffersonian, not a fishing hole." This "Opie" is something of a savant, though, and comes in handy on this week's case, involving the death of a champion in the gut-churning world of competitive eating. (Watch out for the lurking python, by the way.) In the ongoing Bones-Booth-baby storyline, it's pretty clear Bones still has a lot to learn about the niceties of when and to whom she should share such momentous news as the baby's gender.
