Bones (TV series)/Funny: Difference between revisions

* In "The Maggots in the Meathead", pretty much every time Bones starts talking about how the "Guido's" are acting from purely anthropological viewpoint.

* Brennan, while chasing a male suspect, tries a little cop-talk;

* "God is a little formal, Hodgins is fine."

* Angela introducing herself to a "bomb squad bombshell" who caught Hodgins' eye.

* Pretty much any time Booth is under painkillers and/or vaccines.

* The whole [[Fan Service]] saga in "The Goop on the Girl" (the 2009 Christmas episode). Was it really necessary to wheel Booth around in nothing but his funky socks and boxers on a lab cart? No. But it was hilarious.

'''Booth:''' Go ahead, [[Naked People Are Funny|make fun of the naked guy]], knock yourself out. }}

** The kicker is Hodgins's statement: "Where's your chest hair?"

** Later in that episode, Bones is talking to one of the doctors at the asylum and finds that they have quite a bit in common, including a disdain for the less-than-imperical nature of psychology. Just as the doctor is about to give her a tour, Bones learns that {{spoiler|the doctor is actually a patient there, who is under the delusion that he is a psychologist.}} The look on her face is priceless.

* Booth and Brennan, needing to get a form signed, walking in on Sweets and Daisy in a compromising position. Their reactions to one another are the best.

'''Sweets:''' Are you serious!? }}

* Hodgins and Sweets stealing Angela's Dad's car back for him. How can [[It Makes Sense in Context|Sweets meowing like a cat to distract guard dogs, Hodgins trying to avoid angry bikers and Billy Gibbons sneaking up on him]] end any other way?

** The scene at the strip club. Booth goes to Strawberry Lust in order to talk to her, she starts to dance for him, sitting him on a chair so that she can dance on his lap... and Bones pays Strawberry $50 so that she can see it happening.

* Double Death of the Dearly Departed. The whole episode.

* Bones yelling about the anthropology of dancing in a nightclub, played completely straight. Since she's comparing the largely Black club to tribal dancing, it's also an example of [[Crosses the Line Twice]].

** In the same episode, Booth wrings information out of a rapper by agreeing to put him in jail for a month and charge him with murder if he helps the investigation. Bones' complete inability to understand the idea of "street cred" makes it that much funnier.

* In "Mother and Child in the Bay", a mannequin is set up in the lab. In order to make an estimate about the strength of the attacker, the cast takes turns stabbing it as though in a rage. [[Hilarity Ensues]].

* "Phalanges! Dancing phalanges!"

* "Elephants are not purple. This is ''wrong''."

* Brennan's appearance on "Good Morning DC".

'''Host:''' [[Visible Silence|...]] }}

** Later in that same episode, a woman asks Brennan "Is that you I saw on television this morning?"

>'''Woman:''' ...Yeah, it was definitely her. }}

* ''"Hot blooded!"''

* "Thanks for the... gum..."

** The entire episode! Caroline stating against all available evidence that she has "a puckish side that will not be denied"...Booth declaring it Officially the Worst Christmas Ever once they get to the point of sniffing individual Santa butts to see which one smells like bird's nest soup...and of course the entire plotline revolving around the death of someone who may or may not be Santa Claus, especially when Bones and Booth visit his apartment (above a toy store), where, for example, the fridge is filled with milk and cookies and the wardrobe consists of ''nothing but'' Santa clothes.

'''Bones:''' He should have been. }}

** Special mention should go to the scene where one of the professional Santas turns out to be the killer. As he's [[Perp Walk|perp-walked]] out, the other Santas start singing "Santa Claus is Coming to Town": "You'd better watch out, you'd better not cry..."

* EVERYTHING about the circus episode.

* The entire sequence after {{spoiler|Booth faking his own death}}: Brennan barges in on him in his own bathroom in his own house while he's taking a bath wearing a beer helmet, smoking a cigar and reading ''[[Green Lantern]]'' to yell at him for not informing her that he wasn't really dead.

'''Booth:''' Hot tub plus cold beer equals warm beer. Hat equals solution! }}

* Everything ever about Angela's father, who is played by ZZ Top guitarist Billy Gibbons. Him informing Hodgins that asking for Angela's hand in marriage is in fact a terrible idea, the SCARY GUITAR CHORD whenever he appears after they break up when he's stalking Hodgins to scare the piss out of him (and force him to get a tattoo of Angela Forever, and explaining how Texan Daddy justice works to Angela- "Then HIS daddy can come here and kick YOUR ass."

* A woman, Samantha Pickering, from the state department is interviewing everyone, getting Brennan last. When she asks Brennan a question, Brennan picks up the phone, calls someone and passes it to Pickering. After hanging up, she reveals that the interview has been suspended. And her notes are to be destroyed.

* Pretty much any entry from Sweets' [[Character Blog]], he's quite the little [[Deadpan Snarker]] when given the opportunity. Special mention goes to the ones from "The Finder", which were written in a haze of sickness.

* "The Man with the Bone" is all about pirates, with lots of anecdotes from pirate fan Hodgins. They find a bone. They find out it's a pirate bone. They go on a [[Treasure Hunt]]. They think they might actually find some treasure! Cue tables turning as the ''Jeffersonian'' gets a little pirate raid on their exhibits - that is, someone stealing pirate bones ''from them''. '''Twice.''' '''''The same set.'''''

'''Brennan:''' Correct.<br />

'''Goodman:''' 300-year-old bones stolen from our own pirate exhibit.<br />

* In "The Change in the Game" one of the bowlers making a crude remark about Brennan in front of [[Papa Wolf|Max]], then assumeing that the reason Max is pissed because ''he's'' interested in Brennan.

* Angela's increasing frustrated attempts to assemble a toy in "The Prince In the Plastic". Hodgins comes in and tries to help.

* The scene in "The Hot Dog in the Competition" where Booth and Sweets are talking to the husband of the victim. They believe she's a prostitute, she's actually a competitive eater. [[Double Entendre|Double entendres]] abound.

* In the opening scene of "Prisoner in the Pipe," a girl (and her dad) are forever traumatized to toilet training. The next scene with Brennan and Booth touring the hospital with Brennan carrying a UV light around didn't help matters.

* In "The Do in the Don't", the entire scene in the lingerie store. Sweets knows a little too much about women's undergarments.

* Sweets catches Bones and Booth in a compromising position:

* When trying to figure out cause of death in '''"The Predator in the Pool"''' Brennan has an idea and shoves [[Only Sane Man|Clark's]] face underwater with no warning. [[Funny Background Event|His arms flail wildly while she calmly explains the scenario]], and when he finally surfaces, he simply towels himself off, seemingly adapted to the chaos of the lab.
