Bones Midseason Finale Pushed to January

Bones

In an apparent attempt to boost the launch of Bones spin-off The Finder, FOX has made some schedule changes. First off, Bones episode 6, “The Crack in the Code” will be replaced on December 15th by The Finder pilot which originally aired as part of Bones season 6. Then, on January 12, Bones will return with its midseason finale at 8pm followed by the premiere of The Finder at 9pm, just before going on hiatus.

Stephen Nathan and Hart Hanson thank you for believing they actually have the power to influence the FOX scheduling of Bones. They do not.

Hart Hanson talks Booth’s emotional episode

Bones,

“Around here, we all think that David and Emily are completely underrated as actors. They jump from humor to pathos within a scene. Emily brilliantly plays someone who is emotionally distant that somehow you connect to, and I don’t think anyone has ever done that as successfully as she has. David is like James Garner or Cary Grant,  so charming, and then he turns around [and guts you]…” — Hart Hanson
