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 along with many many other people are disappointed Bones is being canceled. Is it because of ratings or the cast wanting to further their career elsewhere. I loved the way they played off each other. Such a brilliant group of actors. I felt like I was a part of their family and will truly miss the show. Although I do watch the reruns in the mornings. Good luck to all of you and I hope to see you again.
I would not like the Bones show to end. This show is one of the only shows I will never get sick and tired of. I think it is a mistake to end the show. There are not many shows like this one. I will miss the show dearly and be really sad.
They absolutely should not cancel Bones, it is a great show. They seem be ending all the good shows this year. Why? We like these shows, keep them coming!!!
I love Bones and have not missed an episode since the beginning. I wish it would continue, I will miss it a lot.
Bones has been the best show on television for a long time. We watch it daily and will certainly miss it if it is cancelled. All of the cast does such an outstanding job in the characters they play. Please don’t cancel!
Bones has been the best show we have had on in a very long. We watch it daily and will definitely miss it if it is cancelled.
I love show. I hate to see it come to an end and I would love see a season 13. Bones is one of my favorite shows. Thanks to all that made the show happen. I will miss all of the cast.
I really enjoy the show, and would love to watch a 13th season. I was really disappointed after the last episode of Castle because I didn’t know that it was the end of the series. It seems that all of the programs that I enjoy are being cancelled & replaced with ridiculous reality shows that aren’t really reality anyway. The characters in Bones are rich and I have watched them all grow over the years. I am glad that there will be a 12th season even though it is shortened. I guess I would understand if the actors were ready… Read more »
Love the show. So sad to see it end but happy to know they are going to have a last season to finish it right unlike Castle. Thanks to the people who made this happen. Can’t wait to see what how it all plays out. Sincerely your loyal fan.
i agree with all the comments here. we love this show. most shows on tv now are awful. leave the good shows on. they are like fine wine, they get better with age. i also love castle,i love the love story between becket an castle. now it’s canceled too.
I personally don’t understand why there is continual cancellation of creative and enjoyable shows that are continually replaced with contrived reality shows that have no reality in them. If I wanted to come home after experiencing “reality” all day and watch it skewed and promoted at night I might just consider throwing my television out the window, as it is I find myself tuning out more and more. I always fount the wonderful writing of the series Bones a wonderful escape from the reality of the news and life. It’s a shame that these kind of decisions are made by… Read more »
I agree with you. I am so disappointed that Castle, & Bones will be cancelled.
Please do not cancel Bones. It was all I had left to look forward to. Castle is canceled, Mike and Molly is canceled, Tony is leaving NCIS, Shamar is leaving Criminal Minds. Might as well sell my TV’s.
No ! I didn’t know Tony from NCIS was leaving. Man, tv is sad.
My thoughts exactly Diane.
If it’s even being considered PLEASE include us as YES!!! Another season of BONES ……
we have enjoyed BONES from day one — we record the reruns during the day and watch at least one episode a day!!!!! BONES is far and away the best series we’ve ever watched. Every character is so well thought out and the story lines are so good — it’s just a GREAT show and we’re going to be very sad to see it end. Good luck to you all!!!!
Why? I am upset that so many of my shows are being cancelled. Bones being cancelled is very upsetting and quite frankly pissing me off. I don’t miss an episode not even the reruns! What will become of the cast? Will they go to other shows? When they are type cast for this show? It’s a wonderful show I worry what will happen to the cast.
