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 would love to see more of bones. Me and my wife have loved it since the beginning. This is an awesome and wonderful show. I would love to see more. It is one of the better shows on television to me and I know personally over thirty friends that love the show and never miss an episode. Please do more seasons of BONES. please, please, PLEASE do at least another two seasons. Please finish at the very least a regular 12th season.
Bones is one of the better shows on tv. I think it is wrong to cancel I will miss the show.
Absolutely, a 13th season should be a go!! Amazing show with stunning plot creativity.
Renew this renew this!!!!! It is by far the best if any show on ant network. Cast interacts great and story lines are great!! Renew renew!! Sad if it doesn’t return. It is as good as any police, medical or whatever drama on any network. Better than most.
I loved the show the first year but it went downhill from season one. Angela going from an artist to a computer genius who designs her own programs was too ridiculous to believe. Was angered when the show gave Zack the ax. Felt as if producers thought his real homosexual life would hinder the show. Putting Jack Hodgins into a wheel chair was jumping the shark. Hiring only geeky guys to play the counseling psychologist made producer David Boreanaz look petty and a zealot barring good looking men that he would have to compete with in the good looks department.… Read more »
It’s no too late to keep it going. Even if all actors won’t be there. Millions will be happy with me and continue watching. Please please don’t stop now
I am 69 yrs old, so no young electronic whiz. I love this show as much as never missing an episode of Little House On the Prairie. I do NOT IN ANY WAY want BONES to end. I keep asking for when to watch the final show which I thought would be in rerun by now. Why is Hodgins in a wheelchair? My mother died and arrangements made me unable to watch or copy the shows #1 & #22, which may have had details I missed? Are you going to run 2-hour flashbacks of major episodes, like when was the… Read more »
No no no no no no no no!!!!!!!!!!! Please do not cancel bones. I have watched this show since the first time it came out and never missed an episode. I rewatch everything because I enjoy what is being made. DO NOT CANCEL BONES!!! Your making a mistake.
Hollywood is so messed up, they can never get it right!! I love Bones, and this is very sad. There isn’t anything on t.v. any more. I’m just done with Hollywood!!
Sadden to hear my favorite show going , All the good shows are slowly going, Reality shows are taking over which I can’t stand Please reconsider and give us 13 th season and more
Fox is always cancelling excellent shows and it seems arbitrary. There preference seems to be to cater to the young. They fail to realize that the demographics show the population is older, they have more free time to watch TV and more discretionary money.
Bones is one of my favorite shows I cannot believe it is going off the air. Please rethink it.
Dang – just read and heard that one of my favorite shows is saying good bye. Enjoyed this series SO much and the actors are great! Soooo sad, thank you all for the great show!!!
We literally make our schedule of daily life around BONES & BLUE BLOODS. Why is Dr Hodgins in wheelchair?
We love BONES. Please don’t cancel!
