Bones is an American crime drama television series that premiered on the Fox Network on September 13, 2005. The show is based on forensic science, with each episode focusing on an FBI case file concerning the mystery behind human remains brought by FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth to the forensic anthropology team of Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan. Emily Deschanel stars in the title role, along with David Boreanaz as Special Agent Seeley Booth. The rest of the cast includes Michaela Conlin, T. J. Thyne, Eric Millegan, Tamara Taylor and John Francis Daley.
Created by Hart Hanson, the series is very loosely based on the life of forensic anthropologist Kathy Reichs, who is a producer on the show. Its title character, Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan, is named after Temperance Brennan, the protagonist of Reichs' crime novel series. Bones is a joint production by Josephson Entertainment, Far Field Productions and 20th Century Fox Television
The show begins in the year 2005, and tells the story of a series of case files, solved weekly, by the unlikely alliance of Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan's forensic anthropology team at the Jeffersonian Institute (a thinly veiled allusion to the Smithsonian Institution) and FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth. By examining the human remains of the murder victims, Dr. Brennan and her team provide scientific expertise and an outsider's perspective to the world of criminal investigation to the FBI. In addition to the murder cases featured in each episode, the series explores the backgrounds and relationships of the major characters including the developing friendship and possibly romantic relationship between Brennan and Booth. The series has dark comedic undertones.
The concept of Bones was developed during the latter part of the pitching season of 2004 when 20th Century Fox approached series creator Hart Hanson with an idea for a forensics show. Hanson was asked to meet with executive producer Barry Josephson, who had purchased the rights to produce a documentary on the forensic anthropologist and author Kathy Reichs. Although Hanson was reluctant about being involved in making a police procedural, he signed on and wrote the pilot episode after having an intensive meeting with Josephson about the show.[5] As the show is based on the works of Reichs, the writers constantly involve her in the process of producing the episodes' storylines.
In order to make Bones a unique crime drama in the midst of the multiple procedural dramas that already populated network television like the Law & Order and CSI franchises, Hanson decided to infuse the show with as much dark humor and character development as possible.[6] Another element conceived for the show was the "Angelator", a holographic projector whose use is to replace flashbacks that are often used by other procedural shows. In addition to their expositional purposes, the holographic images, which are created by visual effects, brought a unique visual style to the show that the producers were looking for
David Boreanaz was the first actor to be cast in Bones. Series creator Hart Hanson described the actors who had auditioned for the role of Seeley Booth as "pretty boy waifs" and immediately responded when the head of the studio, Dana Walden, suggested Boreanaz for the role. Boreanaz was offered the role but was unenthusiastic about getting involved after a difficult meeting with executive producers Barry Josephson and Hart Hanson, even though he thought the script was well written. However, after the producers contacted him again to convince him to accept the role, Boreanaz agreed to sign on and was cast as Seeley Booth.
Emily Deschanel was cast in the role of Temperance Brennan just before production began on the Bones pilot.After Deschanel finished the film Glory Road, the film's producer Jerry Bruckheimer recommended that she audition for Bones.Deschanel impressed Hart Hanson at her audition with her assertiveness. In a tense moment in the audition scene, David Boreanaz stepped closer to Deschanel. Deschanel held her ground rather than retreating. Hanson remarked that, in such a situation, "90% of actors would take a step back". Deschanel was subsequently cast in the role.
In Season 4, Eric Millegan (who played Zack Addy) was replaced by a succession of lab assistants. One — Scott Starett (played by Michael Badalucco, formerly of The Practice) — is much older than the typical grad student. Marisa Coughlan guest-starred in a few midseason episodes as FBI agent Payton Perotta, who was brought to the Jeffersonian as a temporary substitute for Booth when he was incapacitated
Most of Bones is filmed in Los Angeles, California, despite the fact that the show is mainly set in Washington, D.C., where the fictional Jeffersonian Institute is located. The interiors of the Jeffersonian Institute were specially built on a large soundstage at the 20th Century Fox lot in Century City, Los Angeles, California.The two-part fourth season premiere was filmed on location in London, United Kingdom.
The title sequence of Bones is usually shown near the beginning of the episode. Accompanied by the show's theme music, composed and performed by The Crystal Method, the sequence provides the credits of the show. Each episode usually begins with a cold open, which sets up the plot of the episode and can last from three to ten minutes before the title sequence is shown. The title sequence varies from season to season. The first season's title sequence mostly consists of scenes from the first five episodes of the series while the second season's title sequence is made up of scenes from the first season and early episodes of the second. The opening credits in the title sequence include the regular cast members of the respective seasons.
The soundtrack album titled Bones Original Television Soundtrack, produced by Maria Alonte McCoy and Billy Gottlieb, was released in 2008. It contains 13 songs recorded by popular artists for the show.
The fifth season premiered on September 17, 2009. The series has also been renewed through its sixth season
I am so far behind already with all the new dramas that came out when I was locked in the batcave. It is so frustrating that I can’t watch them online with the unbelievable buffering I got. Gosh, I wish I have a T1 for my net connection. Why wasnt I so addicted to asian drama when I had a full access to a T1 line. Back then I was able to download loads of songs in a matter of minutes.
Anyway, I was able to watch a couple of The Last Scandal of My Life and I was hooked. I think I am going to make recaps for the series. Ha ha ha…here I am planning to do another series when I haven’t finish Legend. Bad “recapper”! Can you blame me? Looking at BYJ makes my head spin…well..not literally, I’m no Linda Blair…creepy unforgettable scene in the Exorcist. My target was to write the 22nd and 23rd eps today but I got sidetracked. KJK’s out, bgurl? And so I dived into Youtube and had my fill of XMAN highlights again. Then I peek into some Love Letter episodes. Some of it was funny but some of the dancing sucks.
Somebody emailed me about a reality show about fake couples and they try to pretend that they are married or something and her favorite is Andy and Solbi. She was kinda stuttering in her email…that is the best way to describe her message, lol. I was lost. Was I away for sooo long? I haven’t googled it yet so I dont know anything about it. Tooizzy…any reviews on that?
Have I told you that I hate downloading videos? I like watching them online with hard subs, yeah shoot me…just kidding…I do appreciate the hardwork of those fan subbing teams for the non-korean/chinese/japanese speakers out there but I’m so lazy and I just dont have the time. After watching it, I just get the flash video file from the temp folder to share it with my sis and my mom. I love flash videos, the files are smaller but I sometimes convert it back to mpeg just so that I can watch it on my DVD and bigger screen. Crazy, right?! My real problem now is the buffering. Can’t do anything about it because I am too lazy to download huge files and besides I got no time for it now.
So, probably in the next few days or..err…weeks, I will be featuring some kdramas like The Last Scandal, Who Are You and a few more…not a full recap but maybe a review or something.
If you’re a regular reader, you know that I am addicted to BONES TV series. Wow, what a season ender. It is an american TV series that I am so passionate about. It does not have anything to do with asian dramas but I just want to mention it here. Try watching an episode and you’ll get hooked. Start with a fan made video about Booth and Bones and I guarantee you that you will fall in love with them…*sigh*
I also had my fill of past Korean movies and I enjoyed some of them but some are just too weird for my taste. Why can’t they make some normal stories with normal reactions from normal situations. Ha ha ha…I was able to watch a movie somewhat similar to Tom and Meg’s You Got Mail but there were boring parts but all in all it was okay. I forgot the title though…wait…I think the title is Who R U…
See you all guys tomorrow and hopefully I will get to post two Legend recaps and some new ones. Enjoy your weekend people! Bburps…thanks.
