With the end in sight – only three episodes remaining – the cast of Bones (FOX’ Tuesdays, 9/8C) has released a twenty minute video reminiscing about their time on the show, and thanking fans for their perseverance in following them from timeslot to timeslot over the show’s 12-year run.
FOX has released its Winter Premiere schedule and there are a few changes.
Sleepy Hollow returns on January 6th, following Rosewood, with its new Witness; New Girl moves to Tuesday, beginning January 3rd, leading in to new comedy series The Mick (in its regular timeslot) – which, in turn, leads into Bones: The Final Chapter.
24: Legacy gets a two-night premiere – following Super bowl LI on Sunday, February 5th before shifting to its regular timeslot on Monday, February 6th – leading in to new drama APB.
Les Daniels’ new music biz series Star will premiere following the Empire winter finale on Wednesday, December 14th before shifting to its regular timeslot on Wednesday, January 4th.
For the rest of the FOX Winter Premiere dates, full schedule and series descriptions follow the jump.
Bones has long been one of FOX’s most highly regarded utility players – every time the show moves (and that has been fairly frequently) its fans follow it, generating solid enough ratings to take it to its twelfth and final season.
When the final season’s twelve episodes begin, fans are promised a host of nods – fan favorite guest stars and squinterns are only the beginning.
Bones: Season Twelve premieres on Tuesday, January 3, 2017. Read on for hints of the rewards that lie in store for loyal fans.
FOX has made a few tweaks to its 2016-17 schedule: Pitch (following Major League Baseball’s first female pitcher) is moving up to Thursdays this Fall; longtime hit Bones will begin its final season on Thursday in Winter 2017, and Prison Break will air Tuesdays in Spring 2017.
FOX has ordered a twelve episode twelfth and final season for its long-running, reliable procedural series, Bones.
David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel have signed on, allowing the series to come to a purposeful conclusion and giving the show’s loyal fans a chance to say their goodbyes.
Bones returns for second half of its eleventh season on Thursday, April 14th (8/7C) with an episode entitled The Death in the Defense. Follow the jump for details.
FOX’s popular forensics procedural Bones returns on April 14 (8/7C) – leading into the series premiere of American Grit (9/8C), a military-inspired competition show starring WWE® Superstar John Cena.
For details – and a trailer for American Grit – follow the jump.
The Bones/Supernatural crossover may be the weirdest crossover ever – yet never oversteps the boundaries of either show. It begins with the Bones (FOX, Thursdays, 8/7C) episode The Resurrection in the Remains and concludes with the Sleepy Hollow (FOX, Thursdays, 9/8C) episode Dead Men Tell No Tales.
Although the integration of each show’s characters into the others’ continuity is fun, the crossover is a bit of a cheat insofar as it is not one story told in two parts, but rather two stories with a single link (characters aside) between them.
We now have a plotline for the Bones/Sleepy Hollow crossover: On Bones, when Brennan and Booth follow clues gleaning from the discovery of grisly human remains, they encounter Ichabod Crane and Abbie Mills and discover they’re after the same evidence.
For the tagline for Sleepy Hollow half of the crossover, follow the jump.
The Bones/Sleepy Hollow crossover airs Thursday, October 29th beginning with Bones (8/7C) and concluding on Sleepy Hollow (9/8C).
When Bones returns tomorrow night (FOX, Thursdays, 8/7C), it brings the reappearance of Cyndi Lauper’s psychic Avalon Harmonia – though she’s not visiting the Jeffersonian to help with the (as usual) messy case of the week. Nor is she there with warnings of tough times ahead for Booth (David Boreanaz).
Last week, Emily Deschanel and series showrunner Stephen Nathan did touch on those topics – as well as the continuing excellence of the technicians who create all those icky bodies and more – during a conference all Q&A with a number of bloggers/journalists.
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.
