The 200th in the 10th – Bones’ Showrunner Stephen Nathan Talks Milestone!

stephen_nathan_thumb.jpg

Doing a conference call Q&A with Bones showrunner Stephen Nathan, solo, still feels a bit odd. Once again, we were talking to him without the show’s creator, Hart Hanson – and Nathan’s riffing partner – present (Hanson, of course, is working away on FOX’s Backstrom – a series he also created).

 

Other than that, it was business as usual as Nathan talked about FOX’s most durable and dependable series – and the show’s milestone 200th episode.

Mystifying Teaser: Backstrom!

Backstrom, the new series from the creator of FOX’s long-lived Bones, is a procedural that features a despicable, alcoholic, lazy, yet brilliant detective – the Backstrom of the title – played by Rainn Wilson. Yup, he sounds like Gregory House as a cop – but he may be even less functional outside business hours.

Backstrom is coming soon to FOX. Check out the new teaser after the jump.

Bones’ Dynamic Duo Talk Season Finale, The New Squintern and Bad Days!

With two episodes to go in season nine, the stars of Bones (Fox, Mondays, 8/7C) took some time to talk with a group of journalists/bloggers about what lies in store for Bones and Booth. They addressed this week’s introduction of a new squintern – played by Laura Spencer – and a season finale that includes a Congressional hearing and has huge ramifications for everyone.

They also talked about how they keep things fresh after nine seasons and how they deal with bad days. For a short Q&A, it was a lot of fun.

Hart and Nathan Celebrate Bones Return To Mondays!

hart-hansonstephen_nathan

Although tonight’s episode of Bones (Fox, Mondays, 8/7C) doesn’t take up much space in our latest conversation with showrunners Hart Hanson and Stephen Nathan, they definitely seemed happy to be back on Monday nights (or, maybe, they had one cup of coffee too many…).

When they chatted with a group of bloggers/journalists on Friday, there was a great deal of laughter and a wide range of topics – ranging from Wendell’s cancer to the gross remains that kick off each episode and even Hanson’s new series, Backstrom (premiering on Fox next season). Stephen Nathan even played Kevin Reilly for a completely unauthorized bit faux scheduling. It was one of the liveliest Q&As of the season. If there are showrunners out there who love talking with the press more than these guys, I’ve yet to encounter them.
