Bones Season 13 revival? The FOX procedural has only just ended its 12-season run, but creator Hart Hanson is already eyeing the show’s possible comeback “in a couple of years,” per Deadline:
You never know what people will say yes to, and getting everybody together again, getting the band together would be a lot of fun. I’ll say this: There are no big personal things to get over. To get together again, and I would be the last person to speak for everyone, but in a couple years or something, it might be a lot of fun to get the band back together again and see what we could do.
Bones has this lovely aspect to it, which is that the people who work on this show love each other. You cannot find two more opposite human beings by the way on the planet as David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel. There’s no way they should get along, and yet here they are all these years later differing on probably every issue, both strong personalities, and they adore each other. That’s huge. We all get along. The showrunners and producers get along with the actors, the crews. It’s a very copacetic production.
On whether the potential Bones revival would take the form of an X-Files-style limited series:
I imagine it would be…well, you just don’t know, do you? We just don’t know. I have no idea, but I’m going to say right now it would seem more likely that a one long-form thing would happen. But, again, you just don’t know, and by the way, there may be no appetite for it. You know shows…
Bones revived in 2019? Stay tuned as we monitor the TV afterlife…
Liz says
Really disappointed in this last year. And last night was here and there…too many times jumping from one time to another. Had a hard time watching it. I have loved Bones thru the years but became glad to see it end. Maybe a spinoff with one of the other people. But won’t watch Bones again if it comes back.
Lacey Sheridan says
It might be interesting to see a limited run series in a few years to see even more development of the characters. I would hope that Emily Deschanel would have her weight problem under control by then, and we could enjoy seeing her healthy again. Might be nice to see what the kids turn into, also.
LindsayDD says
You know “her weight problem” as you put it is her having children right? She didn’t just gain weight out of the blue. She gained it from her pregnancies in 2011 & 2015.
NME says
Being overweight doesn’t mean she’s unhealthy. It’s not for anyone else to judge.
Jim says
I totally agree, maybe a couple of tv movies a year.
John says
This is a rude Comment from a sick person
NME says
Are you perfect?

I was very upset that BONES ended last night!!!! Couldn’t take my eyes away with last night’s episode!!!!!!! I really hope it comes back just as good!!!!!!
Buffy says
I know,, both actors,, leading were fantastic. IN this above pic, Emily looks like an Angel. Hah!! Just realized I used David’s last series as a description for Emily!! He was GREAT in Angel too!!!
KayB says
This is one of the shows that I would love to see continue on. Maybe other writers are needed to continue the show but everything and anything should be tried to make this show continue on. It is a fantastic show and the actors/actresses are spectacular!
Janet says
I loved, and will continue to love Bones. Hope it comes back.
Nancy Bibb says
I just finished watching the Bones series. I LOVED IT!! The actors were so wonderful. I hope it comes back….
Evette Wilson says
I too spend my quarentine hours watching the seasons of BONES! Great acting and plots. I wish it would come back with the same quality I would watch it!
Kate Fredericks says
Bones is a one-of-a-kind series and it breaks my heart watching this last season. The chemistry between Bones and Seeley Booth has been and continues to be the best part of the show. I could watch Bones until the kids are grown and gone! As for Emily Deschanel “gaining” all that weight has no bearing at all on the brilliance of this series. She makes the rest of us feel better that not every lead female has to be a skinny waif to be a remarkable member of a cast! She is excellent and beautiful no matter what her dress size is! Kudoes also to the rest of the cast members. It is obvious to the audience that these people love each other whether on this show together or not. And the humor throughout ties the often gruesome nature of the stories into big wonderful gifts for those of us who enjoy pure entertainment! Bring it back! Please!!
NME says
I would love for Bones to continue. Love the people. I do wish Zach had never left.
Does anyone know why he left the show? I watch reruns, so new shows would be great!
NME says
I forgot to say, that I wish the show would be back sooner than 2019.
Jim says
Please don’t. However, if you do how’s about making Bones lose some weight. Being the “smartest scientist in the world” she should know better. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the show, I just think it’s run it’s course.
Jim says
Please don’t bring it back, the final episode was disappointing but such is such. If you do however, please don’t kill off anymore of the characters, you were becoming as bad as “NCIS” when it came to killing off the cast, I don’t like killing off the good guys abd frankly l don’t think anyone else does.
