Bones: Dr Lance Sweets


Does anyone else find the Lance Sweets character thoroughly irritating, obnoxious and needy?

Time after time, Booth has to acknowledge that Sweets is right — because time after time, Sweets has to remind Booth that he has the authority to break up the team of Brennan and Booth.

I just saw the 2nd Sweets episode ("Boy in the Time Capsule") again and I noticed something. He passes over Brennan's repeated stating her lack of faith in Psychology with barely a look. However, anything Booth says that is not in complete acquiescence with everything Sweets has said is taken as hostility.
Suddenly, a chorus from "The Mikado" is running through my head: Defer! Defer!
To the Lord High Executioner!

His character is one of the most annoying people I have ever seen on tv.
