Perfect Casting/Favorite Character

One of the things that makes "Bones" such a great show is the spot-on casting, and casting John Francis Daley as Dr. Sweets - arguably the best character on the show - was brilliant.

Yes, a lot of credit goes to the writers for creating this original character and for giving him wonderful scenes.

However, John Francis Daley is the perfect actor for this part; his role is both dramatic and comedic and his acting in all aspects of the role is sublime.

I agree, I can't think of anyone who is more perfect. Why did they write of Dr. Brennan's assistant?, he was perfect too.

I thought you were talking about his casting as Sam Weir on Freaks and Geeks. I've never seen such a perfectly cast "geek". He and his friends made that show. I really got into their story lines more so than the "freaks".
