Zack Speaks...

LOL! I loved that Bones decked Booth when she realized he was alive! LOL! I hope Zack gets reinstated but, her is a serial killer now. How does one come back from that? I never thought that my being pathetic could help someone else out! LOL! Yay!

As much as I liked Zack I don't see a way to have him reinstate the character they practically killed him off. They made him a murderer. He stabbed someone through the heart! I would not mind seeing him as the other characters visit him and come to terms with what happened, but tampering with evidence, desecrating bodies( by stealing the teeth from the limbo storage area) how could he possibly be reinstated? I would be very disappointed in the show if they did that.

But Zack was only an apprentice and had only been so for a few months - AND, he only killed ONE person, so he's not a serial killer - and he didn't eat of the flesh either. He was in it for the 'philosophy' not the killing, so yeah, they can 'rehabilitate' him, especially if he is going to be 'consulted' on some shows, and before you know it Bones herself will have made things alright again - you wait and see! lol

well he might not be seeing house risked his life for AMBER so he might not be mad at him

It was actually, from what I remember, a mutual decision. He wanted to pursue other things. I just hope that he decides to come back again and that they figure out how to make it possible for him to become a permanent part of the cast again.

It still stings me to think about him no longer being a contract character. I am happy to have read, through his mouth and the mouth of his bosses, that he will be back in guest spots. I can say that it would have even more upsetting if they had killed him off the show. So, I am glad that he will be back as a guest on the show! But, it still upsets me that they got rid of him when they could have gotten rid of Cam instead! She wasn't a member of the original cast. Zack has been on since day one! I would gladly trade Cam to have Zack back!

Yeah, it really is hard to understand why tptb would cut the good shows and why they would keep the ones that they do. There are still several shows set to record on my dvr, just in case they come back unexpectedly, Jerico among them, but sometimes it seems like forever before the new seasons start.

I did see his guest appearance. He is supposed to be guesting a couple more times. I really am hoping that Sweets can figure out how to reveal what Zack told him. I kind of hope that the fan reaction to his exit will give The Powers That Be the push to bring him back and give us what we all really want. I don't really think many people were very happy about Zack getting kicked off the show. It really was crap that Jericho got canceled too. In fact, there were a few shows that got the boot last year that sort of upset me to see them go. Another was Moonlight. I don't get it. They keep a show like Brothers and Sisters on the air, or like Kath and Kim. Sorry if you like either or both of those shows...I don't mean to offend. But, they get rid of shows like Jericho and Moonlight. WTF? LOL!

I respectfully disagree. I understand that the writers wanted to make a bold statement and keep us on our toes. The head writer even said that they realize that there is comedy in the show but, they felt like we were starting to feel too comfortable and they wanted to jar us and wake us up a bit. I disagree. I have never felt comfortable. I am always jarred when I watch the show. It thrills me and leaves me wanting to talk to people about it and, they didn't have to remove one of my favorite characters to achieve that. As for Zack being the most "disposable"...no way! He did have strong connections to the other characters. He was almost like Brennan's son in the way she sort of felt a little protective and maternal towards him. He was an enigma to Cam and Booth, a best friend to Hodge, and a little brother to Angela. I feel he has strong connections with all of the other characters and it really came through in the last few minutes of the episode as they put together the box of all his favorite things and each of them was something that one of the other characters gave him. Not only did his character connect with all of the other characters but he managed to grip the audience and his fans so well that they have dubbed the response to his exit the "Zack-lash". This will never sit well with me.
