The One in Which Doc Rants ***SPOILERS***

[doc_3]

Okay.  If you haven't read the spoilers for the Season 4 finale stop HERE.

Seriously, you have been warned.

No really.  You've been warned. A LOT.  DO NOT CLICK.  DO NOT PASS GO. 



From what I've gathered, Booth and Brennan are having sex in the Season 4 finale.  Apparently they are having sex because Brennan wants Booth to father her child.  (I haven't actually read that verbatim anywhere, but I'm no dummy.  I can put two and two together like a champ.)  Booth apparently doesn't feel as clinical and detached about this as Brennan.  Hart Hansen thinks this is a good plot device.

THIS IS NOT A GOOD IDEA!!! 

I feel better now that I've shout-typed that. 

I think this is a horrible idea.  To use the popular "jump the shark" metaphor:  they are strapping on the water-skis with the Fonz.   Goof!Booth is annoying, but Pregnant!Brennan may be the last straw.  I have stood by this show through a lot and it kills me to think I won't always love it.  I will watch every episode between now and the finale, and pass judgment then.  I just had to get this out.

Goof!Booth is apparently what happens when DB is given some creative control. Season 1 Booth was so much better - when he had no say.

And your description of what the "real" Brennan would do to get pregnant - perfect. My thoughts exactly.

Hmm - I sense a fanfic coming on!
