These things about ''[[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]'' are subjective - not everyone will agree with all of them.
 
* [[Acceptable Targets]]: Wiccans in "The Witch in the Wardrobe", BDSM practitioners, [[LARP]]ers, creationists, comic book fans...
* [[Alas, Poor Scrappy]]: A common reaction to {{spoiler|the death of Dr. Nigel-Murray}}. Just when you thought you could deal with him...
* [[Audience Reactions]]: Did Brennan really, honestly try to tell [[Stephen Fry|Stephen bloody Fry]] of "a writer called [[William Shakespeare|Shakespeare]]" and "a play called ''[[Hamlet]]''", as if he had never heard of them? This resulted in some humour for Brits watching.
* [[Badass Decay]]: In the first couple of seasons Brennan is presented as a capable and skilled martial artist. This seems to have been abandoned in later seasons, noticeable in "Harbingers in the Fountain" where an untrained doctor clumsily wielding a simple scalpel is more than a match for her.
** In Season 7's "The Warrior in the Wuss", she provides some significant information about Karate, and just about any self-defense instructor will tell a student that just because someone is untrained doesn't mean they're not a significant threat, ''especially'' if they're armed and/or highly motivated. Even in the first episode, she was perfectly willing {{spoiler|to shoot a guy threatening to burn both of them to death instead of trying to subdue him.}}
Line 89 ⟶ 92:
* [[The Woobie]]: Sweets and, to a lesser extent, Zack. And if you don't feel bad for Hodgins during season 4, there's something wrong with you. Heck, Brennan herself-underneath that [[Insufferable Genius]] exterior lies a very vulnerable, fragile soul-the times when it's exposed tend to [[Tear Jerker|quite sad.]]
* [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]: {{spoiler|Zack as the apprentice to Gormogon.}}
* [[Audience Reactions]]: Did Brennan really, honestly try to tell [[Stephen Fry|Stephen bloody Fry]] of "a writer called [[William Shakespeare|Shakespeare]]" and "a play called ''[[Hamlet]]''", as if he had never heard of them? This resulted in some humour for Brits watching.
