A look at Booth’s past - coming up!

by Brianne Clemmer

In another short interview with David Boreanaz, we get a quick idea that we just may get our chance to see more of what makes his character, Booth, tick this season. If you remember, looking into Booth’s family and past was something that got dropped last season due to the writer’s strike (along with a lot of other storylines…) but this season we just may get to redeem our rain check on some of that footage.

I picked up from previous episodes that Booth was previously a sniper in the service, but somehow I missed the idea that he has endured torture. I suppose that would greatly influence who you were and how you dealt with life - and this is something we just may get a chance to see a little better this season. Boreanaz says that we may get to see Booth where he lives (literally - as in his apartment), and how he gets up and gets ready each day - how hard it is for him and how he shelters himself with this protective front he puts on every day. And of course, you can imagine that this will also reveal a little bit more about his relationship with Bones, and I’m sure the other squints, so maybe we’ll get a little closer to getting under his skin.

Sounds like a greats season coming up - although I really have come to expect nothing less from this group - although one could argue that the writers have a lot of making up to do to the fans for last season’s shortage and Zack nightmare

    [...] the audience is ready for the back-story, but I dare say us Bones fans are more than ready for the scoop on Booth. (And, it should be interesting to get it from his little brother’s perspective…) Bring [...]

About Watching Bones

Who doesn’t love forensic anthropology? Okay, so maybe not, but throw in David Boreanaz and an FBI agent and former sniper along with Emily Deschanel as anthropologist-by-day and best selling author-by-night, as well as other awesome cast members TJ Thyne, Micheala Conlin, Tamara Taylor, and Eric Millegan, and you’ve got a mix for an awesome show. That’s just what you get with Bones. A crime drama that has great wit, great writing, and obviously a great cast; Deschanel’s character Temperance “Bones� Brennan is socially illiterate, although brilliant, and balances out Boreanaz’s character Agent Seeley Booth as they work together to solve sometimes years-old murders. Backed by the “squints� at the Jeffersonian Museum, this team is unstoppable, but it’s the people and the relationships that really make the show. Don’t miss a minute of it!
