NEW Sneak Peek! WOW!!!! They're talking babies!
TV Line has the Exclusive Sneak Peek Video Clip for this week's episode,
The Signs in the Silence. To read more about this video clip, go to wetpaint's Bones' page
Hot! Hot! Hot!
I'm really hoping The Finder gets picked up. I liked the messed up paranoid Walter character. Of course, his hot bod just makes it even better. My jaw dropped when he stripped on the show. Dang! I wasn't expecting that. Whew!

Geoff Stults Reveals the Secrets to His Hot Body
Season 7 is a GO for Bones!
It's been less than 24 hours and it's already old news. No surprise there. A Bones renewal was anxiously anticipated. The last renewal was in 2009, a 2-year contract, and then it was Hart Hanson that let the cat out of the bag. This time it was the guy with the new twitter account. LOL!
Oops... David Boreanaz has been having a ton of fun with his new-found friend... Twitter! I love his unofficial sneak peek photos on the set. I also love all his personal tweets with and about his family. What a true romantic & family man he seems to be. I'm glad he was able to get back on the right path with his wife.
Well, David set the media into a frenzy late last night and today and we didn't have to wait long for the official announcement... Bones has been renewed for one year rather than the 2 years that Hart Hanson (HH) had hoped for. Fox has profit to think about and Bones is now an at-risk show mostly because of its age and then because it had so many fans upset about the season. Just because fans try and stick through season 6 for something worth watching doesn't mean they'll return after a long summer hiatus if they still have little hope left after the finale.
OT! Orange and Black craziness!
Oh, Season 7 is GO for Bones

I hope HH fixes things before it's too late. Chop-chop! (And throw in a doggy come 'ere whistle like Booth did to Brennan in the Finder episode.) *u*
*****************************************************
Make no Bones about it: Booth and Brennan will be back on the case next fall!
Fox has renewed the hit procedural for a seventh season after coming to terms on a new license fee agreement with producer 20th Century Fox TV.
“Bones is creatively fresh, it’s a rock-solid player every time it airs and this season it has helped us win on Thursday nights for the first time in our history,” said Fox president Kevin Reilly. “Hart Hanson and the fantastic cast and crew, as well as the millions of loyal Bones fans, make this show really special, and I’m excited to have it on our air for another stellar season.”
The news comes at what could be a critical turning point in the show’s history. After six years of will-they-or-won’t-they anticipation, Booth and Brennan may be heading into next season as a full-fledged couple. Producers are also busy assessing what creative impact, if any, Emily Deschanel’s real-life pregnancy will have on the show.
TVLine’s handy Renewal Scorecard has been updated to reflect today’s good news!
*************************************************
While I agree that Bones deserves a ton of praise and that they did help Thursday evenings' ratings, I have to be honest here... American Idol (AI) did most of the work when it was brought to Thursday nights in January. AI also helped Bones ratings return to stellar numbers and off-set some of the fans that left for greener pastures... i.e. Shows that were entertaining without being depressing. Sometimes, the truth hurts. If Bones was the history making show with the amazing numbers they didn't need help to achieve because the writing turned off so many fans, and HH wasn't so arrogant with his fans and critics, I think a 2-year contract would have been a reward that matched such legitimate praise. Just saying...

Season 6 Finale
Season 6 Finale of Bones: May 19
TV Guide
Must-Watch Finales: Scoop on 39 Season-Enders
Bones (Fox)
Airs: Thursday, May 19 at 9/8c
Following the grim conclusion of the sniper arc, expect a lighter finale that finds Booth and Brennan going undercover to solve a murder tied to the bowling league of Brennan's father (guest star Ryan O'Neal). Meanwhile, Angela and Hodgins' baby will be born, despite a last-minute doctor switcheroo. And look no further than the episode's title, "The Change in the Game," for possible implications about Booth and Brennan's relationship status. Or as creator Hart Hanson puts it: "I don't think people will feel that there's an anti-climax by the end of the season."

Analyzing Season 6
In the Boneyard episode forum, Teresa made a great posting about the last episode: The Pinocchio in the Planter. With her permission, I'd like to share her thoughts:
"Hannah.. I think she was a rebound relationship and those never work out. Did he love her, I now think he did, but not in love and not for the right reasons.. She moved across the world for him, she wanted him. He was hurt and then all of the sudden he meets this beautiful woman that wants him. When she first meant Brennan she said, I have heard all about you. Which means Booth talked and talked about Brennan and Hannah stuck around. Now how many woman would stick around when a man is talking about another woman constantly. I think Hannah knew more about Brennan than she did about Booth.
Awkwardness between Booth and Brennan.. I had not thought of it, because I want them together. But, it makes sense. They have both admitted their feelings, they have both turned each other down, but are still working together.. They want to be together, because it is better to be together in any form than to be apart. It would be awkward, it would be uncomfortable. I have seen ex's that are fantastic people, but if you put them in the same room, no matter how civil and friendly, the air changes. These two love each other and don't want to scare the other one away, so they both try to hard to just be normal friends. This is probably what we are reading as no chemistry. Which, I actually applaud the actors on, how they can convince us how awkward they are. They are now actually getting back to the friends they started out to be, it seems to slowly, very, very slowly seems to be growing.
Sweets introduction is what I believe lead to all this dancing around their feelings. He was brought in to see if the Bureau needed to dissolve the partnership.. While his reasons for first being there had only to do with professional issues, it clearly evolved after he realized the intensity of their connection to each other. First, they don't want to have their partnership dissolved, so they fight for it and while doing so Sweets catches on, even if they are both oblivious to their feelings. Second, they believe the Bureau will severe their partnership if they have a relationship, which, I saw on some forum might not be true... The Bureau's policy would cover agents, which might not be valid in Booths and Brennan's case. She is NOT an FBI employee, she is NOT an agent. She is more of an outside consultant. I don't think their policy could regulate that. Her FBI pass when she is in the Hoover building is a Visitors pass working with Booth is a Visitor's pass, not an employee's pass.
Brennan not acting like Brennan - She wouldn't, she has changed, she has evolved. She can't go back to the Brennan she was, she has learned to much from Booth, she has opened herself up.. Obviously she admitted she is still not 'strong' enough, but like any of us, once you get the taste of something good, you don't just stop, you might refrain, but you don't just stop. Booth has been through alot. He has been rejected by 2 woman in a year. He has had his heart ripped out and stomped on, that will change you. Defense mechanism's on high alert, walls have went up, going to take awhile for them come back down. He has shut down while he mends.. This I can relate to, I have done it.. He lives by his gut, by his heart and when you do that and you have that kind of pain, you do anything to shield yourself from that pain, which is what he is doing.. And what Brennan did after her family left and never returned. He brought her out of her fortress, maybe he is slowly emerging from his too."
There's a great new thread in the Boneyard general forum called: Analyzing Season 6
JET started the thread hoping we can all have a place to discuss and analyze this season without the negativity that has been present in many of the episode threads. She writes...
"I believe it is possible to critically discuss what we have liked and disliked, what we wish had been done differently, etc. without getting personal or saying the show has been ruined. IMHO, one way to do this is to speak to what we think and to try to be more analytical than emotional. For example, instead of saying "I hate what they did with Booth's character this season", I might say "Booth's behavior has been so out of character for what we have seen over the previous 5 years. The Booth we knew wouldn't treat Bones the way he did when Hannah was around."
This has been a fabulous thread and would recommend it to anyone who likes Bones.

Review: The Pinocchio in the Planter
Gosh, I don't know where to start. I've watched this episode 3 times and it hasn't gotten any better. It was boring.
The case was lame. But I thought is was going to fulfill a greater good for the characters. To me it fell flat. Moments were missed. This episode had such potential and it failed to deliver (in my opinion).
Angela & Hodgins... not impressed.
Wendell... Actually this is the first episode I've liked with him since he and Angela got together.
Sweets... not bad this time.
Pirus ad... I didn't mind it this time because it fit Brennan's personality. But it was still OOC for Brennan to be driving. I miss Booth insisting on driving and Brennan saying, "I'm an excellent driver."
The final B&B Scene... WTH???
First the good part... When Booth said he knew where Bren's question was going, Bren touched his hand and mentioned the case was done so she wanted to know what he lied about. But.... Booth didn't confess to a lie. It wasn't even an omission. Now I do get the importance of what he said. He was able to mention Hannah's name without being angry. That's a step in the right direction. But it wasn't the pachyderm in the room. The good part was that Booth realizes that Bren was there for him the same way he was there for her after the 100th. B&B have never been good at telling each other how they feel for each other. I saw caring in their eyes, but I have yet to see ES or any of the chemistry they once had. And that is scary to me. Then Brennan says, "Some things are better left unsaid." And Booth says, "To things we don't say." WTH? Hasn't that been their problem all along? WTH???? I really liked the end of the last 2 episodes. B&B looked like they were flirting with each other, but last night's episode was back to the same old partner thing. It was a huge disappointment to me. I thought the point of Hannah was supposed to lead to something for B&B, but even with the blizzard episode, I'm starting to wonder if that will really happen. Last week, I was hopeful, this week, I'm skeptical that Iwill enjoy the finale
There were some good lines & parts though...
Wendell: Are you going to talk to her?
Hodgins: Of course not. She's pregnant. The hormones are running the institution.
I love Booth and Sweets' reaction to the video with the lady hitting the victim in the nose with the trophy.
I loved Angela's term, "shoe ceremony."
Booth: See that. Like your group says, It's always good to tell the truth."
Brennan: In her case, maybe not. (Love the look Booth gave her.)
Cam: There's also a new policy in the lab.
Brennan: What's that?
Cam: You're the only one who's allowed to be radically honest and that's only because I can't stop you.
