Okay, I think it's no surprise that TJ/Jack is my favorite part of this show. So sometimes when I don't like an episode all that much, I still have to have my TJ .. so I just fast forward through to all of his bits. I tend to watch them over and over and over and over and .. you get the idea.
Surely I'm not the only one to do that? (Plleeaazze say you all do it, too.) :whistle: It's so bad that I sometimes even notice weird things about the scene. For instance, in The Santa in the Slush (one of my fav episodes which I have watched several times) there is a scene with Cam, Hodgins and Zach (*sniff* - Zachy) all working on the Santa body and Cam starts to say something that sounds a bit derogatory about what Hodgins and Zach do and Jack gives her a certain look .. and then, a bit later, they use that exact same bit of the scene for another part. I mean, the editor used the same few seconds, twice!! It's really obvious to nutjobs such as myself who are TJ crazy.
So anyway, I'm perfectly normal, right? Right? (say, right)
Depending on the episode (Like this last one for example) I will fast forward to parts I like, TJ or otherwise, although it's usually TJ.
Interesting on the Santa in the Slush. Have to watch for that when I get to in on Season 3.

Hmm, no, on the whole I don't take bits out of context, but that doesn't mean to say I'm not a bit crazy (or that 'God doesn't love me') and as you see from that little side remark I have a very good memory for TJ lines.
I do however think that TJ might be a tad embarrassed that he is enthusiastic and absorbed about putting a whole piece of art together and then discovers that people aren't watching it as a unit or that they only want to watch his sections of it. There are a lot of other good things going on as well with this excellent cast. On the other hand, I'm quite happy to watch the standalone clips on the main site or Youtube snippets in isolation. What a contradictory individual I am. Hmm.

I'd be the first to admit that I'm quite crazy. Just not in that way. I don't generally fast-forward through the episodes.

I guess I didn't make myself very clear. I of course watch the whole episode. It's just that if it wasn't a particular favorite, on subsequent viewings I sometimes fast forward to TJ's parts.
Well...gotta tell you I just did it last night. I "watched" The Witch in the Wardrobe but only watched the scenes with Hodgins in them. And I have done it with other episodes, not the first watching, and not EVERY time I watch it but some episodes, sometimes...I do just watch Hodgins.
But I probably should also say that I also tend to watch episodes minus Sweets. HAHAHAHAHA which means I like the episode, just don't like the Sweets parts so I fast forward through whatever unimportant thing he is saying (do it with Daisy & Max sometimes too)
I think even if I didn't do it, I'd still be considered crazy though.

I knew what you meant, boo. Even when rewatching eps, though, I don't generally fast forward through anything. I usually just watch the whole thing.

Oooo, I'm totally going to tell on you the very next time I see him in the chat box. I'm not even going to say hi, I'm just gonna shout out "Sharon fast-forwards to all your parts in the episodes!" lol

Awwww, I splattered everywhere. Where's my skeleton? How're the squints going to identify me without my skeleton?

Perhaps, but of course, I'll be in no fit state to enjoy that fact!
BTW, who's going to clean up that mess? I can't do it because I'm dead.

Course, I too meant on the subsequent viewings! I love the whole cast and all the scenes. I watched the end of episode 100 several times too! But he really does have some of the best scenes/lines so...

Yes I did understand you all meant subsequent viewings! It's just I don't do that either. I tend to watch the whole thing again if I like it. I usually see the eps online to start with and it's a pain flicking to and fro, so that is a practical reason. But even with the DVDs I prefer to set time aside and relax into a full 45 minute viewing. This isn't because I don't appreciate the way you do it, I'm just not a jumping-around person by nature, not even to avoid the sections I hate (though I admit I have been known to cut off a BB 'final moment' if I find it particularly contrived, saccharine and unnecessary). Still, the wedding and lead-up to it are tempting, if only because the segment is that little bit longer than the usual mere flash of TJ genius.....

So I was going through threads, trying to find a thread for a specific episode and came across this. It made me laugh because only boo and I admitted to doing this fast forward thing. I don't do it a lot but I do sometimes I admit but then jade and I going all off topic and the bullets bouncing off of her, it just all made me laugh. Which led me to, I wonder where Jade and boo are, sad they aren't still around.
