I finished rewatching S3 over the weekend. I can pretty much agree that the Writer's Strike and Goofy!Booth and that ZANY, QUIRKY music killed the momentum of the show. There are still some quality moments in S3, but much less than those of S1/S2. And losing Zack still doesn't make any sense. The leadup to him being the apprentice just isn't there and I still find it highly implausible.
I'm going to have to figure out where to get dl's of S4 or hope I still have them on the DVR to continue my rewatch.
Favorite episode of S3: The Verdict in the Story. Favorite moment of S3: I wouldn't be a hardcore BB shipper if I didn't say the kiss.
Boy howdy, I love this show and I love your recaps!
I never mentioned the quirky music in any of my reviews but you're totally right - there is an over use of it!! (I know exactly what music you mean!!)
The quality moments seems to be very condensed into the ending B+B moments which are almost always loving and emotional. There were some quality squint moments too but the writers got a bit silly with them aswell.

My favorite moment of season three is that last scene of Booth and Brennan on the steps together (Pain in the Heart) when she is distraught and lays her head on his shoulder. There is something so sweet and intimate about it. I have about 6 icons of that exact scene. It's a bit of a problem.
I adore that moment too and you're right - it is very intimate (plus she looks like she fits there perfectly!) It is a real image of support from Booth and shows how much she does rely on him for emotional support ... expects it almost but not in a demanding way. It's beautiful!
I loved too that Booth stopped Angela from going after her - that he wanted to be the one to comfort her. ♥
ETA: I'm reading a great fic post season 3 called Pain the the Therapist if you fancy it.
Wow! You have done a wonderful and thorough job of capturing all of the BB moments from these seasons. Thank you for all of the research and time you put into this.
aw you are so very welcome. i started compiling little bits of BB a long time ago to make it easy to find caps and quotes for making icons - and then it just grew. :)
