Booth’s back-story a gamble? No way!

by

It’s always interesting to get different people’s opinions on how things work. In an recent interview with Hart Hanson, he talks about how a show and the writers have to “earn” their audience’s desire for a back-story on the characters in the show. That there has to be a connection to the characters before people want to know what made them who they are. Maybe I’m just biased since I love the show already, but I typically enjoy knowing what makes someone tick. The fact that they’ve hinted several times over the past 3 1/2 seasons that Booth was a sniper just peaks my interest even more.

We’ve already gotten some of Bone’s story - with her parents, most specifically her dad, and some of her brother’s story. Although I’d like to know a little more about what happened to her after her parents disappeared. I think she was like 13 years old, wasn’t she?

Anyway, Hanson goes on to say that it’s always a gamble to assume that 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 it on!

    [...] that’s just neat. In a recent interview, Hart Hanson talked about coming up with the character’s backgrounds and personal lives. While it’s easy to assume that they’ve got all this stuff planned [...]

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!
