trivia?
Maybe a trivia section? Toomanysidesofme 19:46, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Speaking of trivia, is that a mathematical joke I spot in episode 16 season 1, specifically I am referring to the cup of bad coffee booth is drinking from about halfway through. The cup has a picture of a donut on it (perhaps referring to that old topological joke) but is actually constructed as a torus of two or three holes (impossible to tell without viewing the interior) rather than the regular one hole torus. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.233.220.65 (talk) 11:09, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

I think a trivia section would be fun. Did anyone notice that season 5 episode 7 shows an x-ray of homer simpson's skull?

That's cool! Gingermint (talk) 03:23, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Trivia is not appropriate for an encyclopedic article, though I'm sure there is a website or two out there that has some. Darktangent (talk) 01:25, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

Zack or Zach?
According to site its Zach but here http://searchingbones.com/2006/08/30/is-it-zach-or-zack/ it says Zack. Its not the first time that the site has been wrong. They got Rebecca's name wrong too.Toomanysidesofme 21:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I would view the official site as being a more reliable and reputable source than a random fansite, TBH, so I would say stick with that until it's either changed, or a more reliable/definite source comes along. Mike Peel 21:05, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Boreanaz being typcast
If David Boreanaz had ever played a detective investigating a supernatural murder-mystery before as he did in the Bones episode "The Man in the Morgue," then I'd have to say that he was at risk of being typcast, luckily he hasn't... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.150.123.197 (talk • contribs) 07:06, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

More Detail?
As Bones now has a second season, maybe it would be worth making a seasonal guide to episode, with lengthier explanations of the episodes and more information? (eg. See Lost Season One) Personally I feel this would be appropriate as I don't feel Bones needs a page per episode, but needs a more detailed account of the episodes Mtowers 21:37, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

If someone would be willing to do an episode-per-episode breakdown, that would be a great idea. A lower-maintenence idea would be to do seasonal plot arcs -- "Themes" or "Broader Plot" or something. Since a lot of the episodal material is of the Law & Order brand (tune in whenever you like, little will have changed) lots of episode detail might not be worth the effort.

Bellhop080

Bones doesn't really have seasonal plots, other than the parents issue, and a few minor others. I'd be willing to do it after I get the DVD, and I'd keep episodic reviews of Season 2 episodes on my computer until I've written the Season 1 ones. But if someone were to share this with me it would be of great benefit (especially for Season 1) Mtowers 01:24, 19 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I'd say go for it. I'd recommend that you add content to the episodes list on this page for now, then split the seasons off into their own pages once they've got more content in them (and write broad season synopses at that point). I wouldn't worry about the order you add the info in - the page doesn't have to be put together in order. Alias (TV series) is a good example of what should probably be the ultimate aim - that show is also very episodic, although it does have some links throughout all of the episodes (more so than Bones, though). Mike Peel 07:34, 19 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I agree with Mike, but right now we aren't sure how long Bones is going to be around for, Fox is pretty much unpredictable. If it goes on past season two I think we should aim for a Alias Page added in episodes Summaries like Lost. I'll be happy to help with season one. I have most of the episodes taped so I can rewatch them and write longer summaries. For themes and such, we could have a cultural references, maybe a section on the only plot arc, Brennan's parents. There is alot we can do. Toomanysidesofme 17:37, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

As a dissenting voice, why put that much detail into the table? The season one table seems a lot cleaner, and doesn't require the spoiler tag. It allows someone to identify the episode, get a general "gist" of the episode, without giving away plot details. The highly detailed first entry I found annoying for those reasons - now it is worse because you've expanded the entire second season table this way.

If people want plot synopsis, they can always go to TV.com. Alternately, if you really want to document a high level of detail, replicating TV.com's effort, you might consider forking off episode articles.

Right now, the second season table is unusable to the reader who wants to scan the episodes to see if the series sounds interesting, but doesn't want the stories explained to them, thus spoiling the drama.

I'm not saying that the synopsis don't have places on Wikipedia - but it probably is better forked, or linked, rather than placed in the show's main summary article. That way the reader can choose the level of detail they want to be exposed to. - Vedexent (talk) - 22:53, 14 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I added my own expanded summaries not revealing the ending. I don't know about the level of spiolers. My summaries aren't it great detail.Toomanysidesofme 02:28, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Is someone planning on doing the same to season one? Right now the two seasons are treated unequally. I think that either the second season should be pared back down, or the first season expanded. I still don't like the lengthy descriptions and think that expanded details should go in a separate article - perhaps something like is done with Torchwood? - but at the very least the two seasons should treated equally. - Vedexent (talk) - 22:37, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm doing season 2 currently (except the first episode this season wasn't mine), I'll do season one too when I get around to it. If someone has the time, feel free to do it. Toomanysidesofme 22:42, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

"Her on-screen chemistry with her "partner" Agent Seeley Booth is uncertain and confusing at times, leaving the viewer perplexed, but never bored." I think that this is an objective statement and the wording should be changed -- the "leaving the viewer perplexed but never bored" part.

If you want to provide detail about the episodes, I'd stick to a brief synopsis of one or two sentences that doesn't reveal conclusions. Darktangent (talk) 01:36, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

Shouldn't this be in Tempe's biographical bit not Booths?
"Booth once arrested Brennan for shooting a murderer who was trying to set her on fire. Even though she was not convicted, the fact that she was once arrested for a felony means that the FBI won't allow her a permit to carry a gun." <--this bit sounds more like it should be in Temperance's biography. Just wondering.

Dr. Sweets
As far as i know he's only a recurring character, and not main cast; this said he should neither be included in the right hand table nor in the main cast section, not (in my opinion) in the main article at the top of the page. If it is later confirmed that he is main cast (or it otherwise already has been) then it is fine to include him in these areas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Beatrix.knight (talk • contribs) 22:45, 19 December 2007 (UTC) \

 * This issue ended a while ago. John Francis Daley and Dr. Sweets were added to the infobox and the character sections a long time ago. However, to address your question, a character is considered a "main character" in a TV series if he or she is listed in the opening credits, or immediately after the opening credits but not listed as a "guest star". kingdom2 (talk) 16:50, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Portrayed?
Why is every character in this series described as being "portrayed" by an actor, rather than being "played" by one? To me this sounds as if they are dubbed or something. Rachel Pearce (talk) 09:16, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Response
Only ONE negative review? You have to be kiddin me. This show is absolutely awful-- terrible acting, terrible writing, derivative cinematography. This show is so bad it makes CSI: Miami look like Richard III and David Caruso look like Ian MacKellan.

Starring List
I just edited the starring section in the infobox to the current cast. Plus, the way it was before was messy, like putting "(1-3) as a regular" after Eric Millegan name just looks messy. I haven't come across any other TV show articles which lists past cast members for a currently airing show. Sure, if the series had ended, then sure list all the people who have starred in it. If anyone has a problem and wants to list the past cast members, fine, but at least get rid of the numbers in the brackets. Obviously it refers to the seasons they starred in, but it just looks messy. Drovethrughosts 16:07, 8 June 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Drovethrughosts (talk • contribs)

Josephson vs. Hanson
After the filming of Glory Road was completed, producer Jerry Bruckheimer told Deschanel about the role and sent her to Bones' executive producer Barry Josephson to audition for it.[10] Deschanel impressed Hanson at her audition, where she showed the character's assertiveness by stepping forward towards Boreanaz after he moved towards her, to which Hanson remarked that "90% of actors would take a step back".[11]

I don't know how much this matters in the scheme of things, but these two sentences are a bit confusing to me. The first sentence seems to be introducing a follow up quote by Josephson regarding Deschanel's audition. Instead, out of the blue, the second sentence quotes Hanson's comments on the audition. I don't think there's any reason to mention Barry Josephson in the first sentence if he's not going to be quoted, and I think the end of that paragraph would read more smoothly if the reference to Josephson were removed. Does anyone have a strong objection to removing Josephson from the first sentence? Awsmith77 (talk) 00:06, 6 July 2009 (UTC)awsmith77

"Cast and characters" vs. "Cast and cast changes"
The section "Cast and characters" and subsection "Cast and cast changes" seem problematic to me in a few respects:

Problem 1: It seems repetitive to reproduce the abridged description of the list of characters in the main Bones article when there is already a separate article with comprehensive descriptions of the characters.

Suggested revisions: The section should be revised to include only a simple list of the characters'/actors' names and the cross reference to the full article with complete descriptions.

Problem 2: The inclusion of the subsection "Cast and cast changes" under the "Production" section seems repetitive since there is a similarly titled section ("Cast and characters") earlier in the article.

Suggested revision: Subsection heading be changed to "Casting process and cast changes" since it is really relating details of the casting process instead of a list of cast members

3) An additional problem with the "Cast and cast changes" subsection is that it only includes the details of the casting process for a few of the cast members. The list then seems incomplete.

Suggested revision: If the section is worthy of being a section and not just a couple footnotes, I think it should be fleshed out with more research. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Awsmith77 (talk • contribs) 01:08, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

100th episode
Wasn't the 100th episode of Bones supposed to be black and white, and set in the 1930s? I've seen so many web articles from pre-100th episode and most of them say the producers said the 100th ep would be set in the '30s. What happened? Was the idea changed, or was the 30s thing just a rumour? cymru lass (hit me up)⁄(background check) 23:54, 27 May 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't think it was a rumour (look here). I don't recall reading it was intended to the 100th episode, as I always heard the 100th would be the flashback episode featuring Booth and Bones' first assignment.

Reliable source for Billy Gibbons as himself?
Angela's father is played by guitarist Billy Gibbons, but so far as I know the character is never named in the television program.

 * He's playing himself, well, a fictionalized version of course. In the press release for the season five finale, he is listed as "Billy F. Gibbons as Himself".

Suggest "inaccuracies" section
Considering the "scientific" premise of this show, do the glaring inaccuracies warrant their own section? I am by far no expert, but even a layman's knowledge doesn't let some of the crap get past the radar: the drug combination used to prevent potential exposure to a common fungal disease in season 1's Christmas episode would hardly be expected to cause euphoria as a side effect, but would lead to about 25% mortality due to liver failure from *treatment*, and as such would never be used preventively before infection was even verified... there is no such thing as an average lethal dose of opiates for a user, since these only apply to opiate-naive individuals, tolerance develops rapidly, and users often have threshold (barely felt) dosages that could kill a busload of non-users... a sniper couldn't possibly hear the music their target was playing, not at any sort of range a rifle would ever be used at... 480 volts at 350 amps cannot be used to torture someone, simply because it is several hundred times more current than your (potentially lethal) average household outlet and would fry anyone instantly... involuntary non-IV administration of nonlethal doses of Demerol (highly euphoric, hardly if at all drowsy) is unlikely to instantly (or ever) sedate a young powerful man enough for a slight woman to overpower and kill him, and if said woman is a medical professional trying to murder an unsuspecting victim, she would surely administer a many-times-lethal overdose of the drug or not use it at all... detection of peyote use from a skull is ludicrous... etc etc.

On a side note, racist and culturally insensitive much? The show mostly seems to say loads of made up ridiculous crap about various non-white South, Central, and North Americans, which I admittedly know little about, but if it's as glaringly out there as the stuff they had about a Russian woman mentioned in passing - talk of rural Islamic Caucasus traditions, yet a blue-eyed Eastern European phenotype referred to as such, given an urban Central Russian hometown, and with a make-believe Slavic-sounding feminine *middle name* to boot (patronymic, derived from a male name, hello?) - then it's a wonder no one's sued the show to death yet...

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy this show, but the idea that viewers might take all it claims at face value is a little disturbing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.169.50.167 (talk) 11:23, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

 * It served no purpose other than to contain information which is already right there—actors and character names, their occupation/role, and their duration on the series. A table might serve better for series with a much larger and changing cast, but Bones has had quite a small and non-changing cast over the years. Drovethrughosts (talk) 15:13, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes it is the same information, but for me it is more like a short summary and easier to fast check up the cast etc. I like clear and simple information, and then also information in details separate!

 * Most of the characters are scientists so they use the SI. --Six words (talk) 08:22, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

"Her"
Regarding:


 * John Francis Daley as Dr. Lance Sweets (Season 3–present): a psychologist assigned to Booth and Brennan after Booth arrests her father.

What does "her" refer to? --Mortense (talk) 07:54, 4 May 2012 (UTC)


 * It's referring to Brennan, her father. Drovethrughosts (talk) 12:37, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

Dramedy
Why is this series introduced as a dramedy? What support is there for saying it is not just a dramatic series? I don't see the humor in the program, any more than in, say, CSI. Is human interest being defined as comedy or what?Kdammers (talk) 01:49, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Cancel that. I still don't see the humor, but the article does have a reference that supports the designation in detail (though I still don't see the humor in the examples there). 211.225.33.104 (talk) 02:33, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
