There’s good news and bad news for fans of the Bones TV show on FOX. The long-running crime drama has been renewed for a 12th season but that will be the show’s final run and there will only be a dozen episodes.
Bones revolves around a married couple who use their skills as an FBI agent (David Boreanaz) and a forensic anthropologist (Emily Deschanel) to solve difficult cases. The show’s cast also includes Michaela Conlin, Tamara Taylor, TJ Thyne, and John Boyd.
Both Boreanaz and Deschanel are set to return for the final season — as are executive producers and showrunners Jonathan Collier and Michael Peterson.
In a statement, the showrunners said, “We couldn’t be more thrilled to have another season, so we can give the show, characters and fans the end they so richly deserve. Also knowing there is a Season 12, we can now write the most rewarding Season 11 finale possible — one we hope will leave our fans excited for what’s to come in this final season of Bones.”
Series creator Hart Hanson noted, “In times like these, marked by instability and doubt, it’s comforting to know the world can count on at least one dependable beacon of stability. Apparently, that beacon is Bones. It just shows what you can do with an amalgam of genius cast, amazing crew, cunning writers, stalwart studio, sweat, a tough economy, a mercurial network, determination, luck, magic, miracles and the most loyal audience in the world.”
What do you think? Do you like the Bones TV show? Do you think that season 12 should be the end? Would you watch a 13th season or, should it have been cancelled this year?
I do not think that Season 12 should be the last season. I could watch this show for more years to come. The writing, acting, & directing have been superb & it hasn’t decreased in style one iota. I love how they have let the cast members mature & interact. We need more shows not less like this on the air.
ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS IN A LONG TIME.WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT STAY BUT DO UNDERSTAND IF THE ACTORS CHOOSE TO MOVE ON. HAVE BEEN A FAN SINCE THE FIRST SHOW.
Love the Bones characters and their interaction. Would like the series to continue.
Bones is one of my favorite tv shows pleaseeeeeee don’t cancel it……I’ve watch ever episode since it started
Please do not cancel Bones. It is the perfect mix of drama and comedy and never fails to engage us in the best possible way. It would be a “CRIME” to take it off the air…..EVER!
I LOVE this show so much!! 🙂 Please do not cancel it!! But I do understand the fact that perhaps the cast (who are AWESOME, by the way!) might want to do some other project or star in a movie or even take a break from acting. 🙂 So, whatever happens, I am SO glad you all came up with this great show with great actors and actresses!!! I have watched EVERY SINGLE EPISODE through Season 11 so far and not one has disappointed me! Thanks again!
Bones is my favorite show on tv. Please do not cancel.
I would watch Bones as long as it is on the air.
Out of all the shows on tv you had to cancel Bones it was the only show on tv I really looked forward to seeing besides the NCI shows but bones was still my favorite. My kids and grandkids were always kidding me about when bones came on either you sit down and watch it with me or go home but I was going to watch bones.
I really like Bones, and wish the would not cancel the show.
I love this show and actors that my pizza and beers time i guess i was too dam happy with Bones
I would like bones to come back for a 13 year.
Pleeeeease do let bones end. I love this show, I look forward to watching every week. I even watch the reruns I’m totally devoted.
These people are like my family. I’m so sad to here about the ending of this series. If it is possible that the series could continue I would be the first to watch this space
Please do not take cancel Bones. I have watch the show from the start . PLEASE.
Oh, of course I would also watch and enjoy Bones for many more years. I have begun reading Kathy Reichs novels characterizing Tempe Brennan ( some of them copyrighted to Temprance Brennan) & that helps. I hope she continues writing at least one per year.
But I think perhaps the actors and others may need to move on after 12 years. Best to us all.
