Bones

Bones (2005-2017)
Bones follows the brilliant, yet socially awkward, forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan and her charming FBI partner Seeley Booth as they work together to solve crimes. They are aided by Brennan's scientific "squints" who examine remains and study bones to unravel the mystery and bring criminals to justice.

Temperance Brennan, also known as "Bones", is in the top of her field as a forensic anthropologist. She is endearingly awkward, usually missing important social cues or exhibiting odd social behavior. She is also a best selling author and producer. The show focuses on her work solving crimes as well as on her relationship with her partner Booth, her best friend Angela Montenegro, and her Squint Squad.

The main cast consists of Emily Deschanel as Temperance Brennan, David Boreanaz as Seeley Booth, Michaela Conlin as Angela Montenegro, T.J. Thyne as Jack Hodgins, and Tamara Taylor as Camille Saroyan. The returning cast for the current (and last) season consists of John Boyd as James Aubrey, Patricia Belcher as Caroline Julian, Michael Grant Terry as Wendell Bray, Eugene Byrd as Dr. Clark Edison, Carla Gallo as Daisy Wick, Pej Vahdat as Arastoo Vaziri, and the long anticipated return of Eric Millegan as Zack Addy.

Of equal interest to fans of Bones are the many antagonist Temperance and her team face along the way. These include Pam Nunan, "an emotionally unstable murder suspect who eventually makes Booth the object of her obsession". Jason Harkness, a canibalistic cult member. Howard Epps, a serial killer with a fondness for tire irons. The Grave Digger, a rare female serial killer.

There are twelve seasons of Bones and while it seems to be the end for this show, it is rumored that there may be a thirteenth season on the way. It has won many different awards including BMI Film & TV awards, Genesis awards, People’s Choice awards, just to name a few.



The Finder was a spin-off series from Bones that ran only ran for one season after it ran into a large amount of delays. The Finder was based off of a book series by Richard Greener called The Locator  and stared Michael Clarke Duncan as the main character who was known for his ability to find anything, and often hired to find people.
