Blogs Nice Girls Read: November 19

Another excellent week of TV means another week of blog posts we don’t want you to miss. Whether it’s brainy broads or hygiene advice from a forensic anthropologist, we’ve got your Friday afternoon reading covered.

• CourtneyK at My Take On TV talks about brainy broads on TV, and why she loves them. She highlights Abby from NCIS and Penelope from Criminal Minds, but what about Brennan – or any of the women, really – on Bones? Astrid on Fringe? Gillian on Lie To Me?
• Our own Tiffany has a column at The TV Addict talking about how TV subliminally changes our behavior. I confess, ever since that episode of Bones, I always put the lid down before flushing and got a new toothbrush.
• Give Me My Remote wants to know who did The X-Files homage better, Castle or Bones? (My vote goes to Castle.)
• Van at True-Blood.net chronicles some very out-of-character developments in True Blood season 3. Who do you think went off the rails the most?
• ChuckTV has your first look at Chuck episode 4.10, “Chuck vs. the Leftovers”, along with some speculation about what the photo reveals. (Warning: spoilers!)
