Ha ha - I liked him in that one, too. Wait for Mayhem on the/a (still am not sure) Cross. You'll ♥ him in that ;)

So does this mean you are beginning to get caught up?

As of now, I am completely caught up! And you're right -- I did like him in Mayhem. :)

Yay! You're back with us. I bet it was a true hardship mainlining Bones for all that watching!

What did you think of Mayhem? I thought the end was ♥

Oh, I actually liked him in that one, too. It's so hit or miss with him.

"Hit or miss" is exactly right, Liz. :)

I have to say, I never disliked Sweets except for those few weeks when I thought he was Gormagon. Now, because of his childhood and his "imprinting" on Booth and Brennan, I feel for him terribly and want him to be happy.

Now they've finally stopped faffing about with shoe-horning him into the most inappropriate scenarios, he does come across better. And I agree, he finds his feet finally in Mayhem on a cross but he does have help from a proper psychologist. *g*

faffing about with shoe-horning him into the most inappropriate scenarios - What a clever way to put it, that's exactly how I feel about Sweets.

What?! Ok, that's it, you're not on my f-list any more... Just kidding ;) Will have to watch The Salt in the wounds again to see if it's a case of losing marbles & hell freezing or actually true. And I do admire people who admit to changing their mind about something.

LMAO. I liked him in Salt. But that doesn't mean I've changed my mind about him in a broader sense; I still think he isn't a necessary component of the show.

Copied and pasted from above: I generally found him pretty annoying because he didn't seem to have a purpose on the show, and it felt like he kept getting shoved into places and situations where he didn't actually need to be. Plus I think he kind of takes Booth's place; Booth isn't a psychologist, but his intuition and people skills seemed to be enough for the team. Oh, and the lack of professional ethics pissed me off, too. *g*

So if he's going to be on the show for the long haul, I might be able to tolerate him, depending on what they have him do in future eps. But generally speaking, I have issues with him.

Mostly for the reason that he serves no real purpose.

*g* That's one of the main reasons why I generally find him so irritating.

I know ... he's growing on me too. Weird.

*pinches you* ;)

Horrors! Sweets has been growing on me also. I still hate how often they shoehorn him in though. I really resent the whole interview thing - Booth seemed to do just fine interviewing suspects on his own, thank you very much.
