Probably a weird question but hopefully someone can help

So me and my fiancée are getting married soon and we’re doing a destination wedding at Myrtle Beach judge us later lol it’s where we grew up and are favorite beach, we’re flying down in a couple weeks to make sure all the contracts for the venue are signed and to try out some bakeries look at floral places, etc. anyways my best friend and best man is coming down with us as a mini vacation catch is he’s never flown before the reason why is because he moved to the us legally from Mexico with his parents when he was three years old and has been on the doca program ever since and he actually didn’t know till very recently that he’s allowed to fly as long as it’s inside the country so he’s very excited to fly down with us but also nervous since it’s his first time flying and is worried about the TSA so I was hoping there might be some people in here also on the program or a similar situation who have flown before and could tell him everything he will need to bring and calm his fears about the process, he has all his documentation as well as his work visa ID and state ID is there anything else he needs to bring should we expect it to take longer for him to go through tsa etc?

▲ 7 r/Bones

Do you think if they wanted to bring sweets back anyone would really be against it.

Rewatching Bones because I never actually finished the show. I always dropped it after Lance Sweets’ death, which was probably a good decision considering I’ve heard they don’t even finish the Gormogon plot properly. But this time I’m determined to finish it, and I’m on season seven, which is getting closer.
It had me thinking: if they did want to rewrite or retcon some of the bad decisions the show made, would fans actually be angry about it? Let’s say a continuation of Bones gets greenlit and they wanted to do the same thing they did for Seeley Booth and fake Sweets’ death so he could draw out a killer or something. It would be bad writing, but would you care, or would you just be happy to see him back?
I would say the three worst decisions in Bones were killing Sweets, Zack’s whole story, and how they handled the lab dynamic. Zack Addy was one of the most likable characters, and instead of having a character with clear special needs develop and grow, maybe find love, and come out of his shell more, they made him more of a freak by labeling him as a killer so they could bring in more interns. They could have brought on interns and still kept Zack regardless. It kind of stunted Jack Hodgins’ character as well. The “king of the lab” became less relevant, and the experiments were trimmed down.
So if they wanted to bring Zack back for a reboot, would you be upset if they just said he was hired back on, even though they made a big deal about the country boy having a record? Just some ideas. I thought it would be fun to get opinions on.
Some other quick nitpicks: I actually really liked the early episodes with a boss that felt like a boss and more storytelling involving the museum, considering the show literally takes place in one. There were too many interns, and it made it hard to get attached because they kept changing or adding new ones. Also, needing every non-main character to have a tragic death or event happen to them made those moments feel a lot less impactful.
Bones’ family was underutilized, and again, there were deaths with no real impact. Bones herself is never really forced to grow; she just gets more controlling. Hodgins’ story never really got resolved either. He just stayed paralyzed.
I’ll probably have more thoughts by the end of my rewatch, but I wanted people’s opinions. Would you be opposed to some retcons to bring back fan-favorite characters?
