Season One on Alibi, I think it starts this week.
Again, I've seen cheeky write ups on Afterellen but has anyone seen this in the US. I wondering what Sasha Alexander will be like, after having seen her in NCIS. It kinda reminds me of Cagney & Lacey, is it? _________________ .............................................................

You intrigued me enough to look this up Pip. I LOVE the Tess Gerritsen novels this show is based on but Im afraid I would find the TV series disappointing, just like I find the way they treated Kathy Reichs books to make Bones. The main women characters always come out as too slick instead of the gutsy, solid personnas they have in the novel. But watch it for me and let me know please _________________ Be yourself.............everybody else is taken!

MG-I'm intrigued about the books. I agree usually they're better than the film/series. Both the characters came across well tonight. I didn't realise Bones was based on books. I'll chk them out for my sister, a real bookworm & Bones lover!!
Hi Karen, I'm good, what did you think or are you waiting til Trace gets home? How's the weather, has it settled down yet? _________________ .............................................................

OMG Pip...shame on you LOL. Some of the best books I have ever read. Honestly the Bones TV series is only a pale imitation of those great Kathy Reichs novels. Tell your sister to make sure she reads them in date order. Better still, read them YOURSELF. And I cant even begin to imagine how they will get the intricate detail and plot twists of the Gerritsen novels into a TV show.

You'd be very disappointed. The depth of plot wasn't there. I think that would have to be built up over as season, instead of episodes. Ineed to go on Amazon so will take a peek. _________________ .............................................................
