A long-running murder mystery procedural has been added to a new streamer for fans in the UK.
Beloved drama Bones, which originally ran between 2005 and 2017 for a total of 12 seasons, is now available to stream on Prime Video this side of the pond.
Starring Emily Deschanel as the titular forensic anthropologist, Dr Temperance 'Bones' Brennan, the series from creator Hart Hanson has been hailed as a mystery that keeps you "hooked" throughout (via IMDb).
The series also stars Buffy's David Boreanaz as FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth, with the series focusing on a 'case of the day' as well as longer arcs spanning each season.
While the show remains some of the most popular procedurals from the early 2000s and 2010s, some fans have pointed out how the show succumbed to the long-running TV curse, starting off on a great note and dragging along towards the final seasons.

"The show went downhill fast after" a big twist, one fan wrote, crediting the change in characters, settings and feel of the show to one pivotal writing decision we won't spoil here.
"I stopped watching a few months after that, as it literally lost all interest to me. Not that I hated it... I just couldn't care enough to watch it anymore," they continued.
Someone else defended the series, urging fans of procedurals to decide for themselves and push past the negative reviews.

"If you want to watch a pleasing, exciting show," the fan wrote, then Bones may be the right series for you.
Although they acknowledged that the quality dropped in the last few seasons, they praised the character development and the storylines, combining gory murders, comedic relief and a 'will they, won't they' love story with a few jaw-dropping twists.
Alongside protagonists Deschanel and Boreanaz, Bones also stars Michaela Conlin, TJ Thyne, Eric Millegan, Jonathan Adams, Tamara Taylor, John Francis Daley, and John Boyd.
The show focuses on the professional and personal lives of the team at the Jeffersonian Institute Medico-Legal Lab and their collaboration with the FBI to solve past and present cases.
All 12 seasons of Bones are available to stream on Prime Video in the UK.
