Bones
Since season one kat ntv7 dulu, aku mmg suka tgk BONES ni. Crita dia mmg ala2 CSI series, NCIS, Criminal minds...bak kata hubby suma crita org mati.
Tp aku suka tgk bones lebey dr yg lain...but, sometimes feel like this series x suit utk bebudak sbb omputeh mmg slalu teramat amat open when they talk about sex.
Tp, dr segi fakta dan knowledge...its good...hehehe....
Pendek kata...aku sangat suka watch BONES.
Bones is an American comedy-drama television series that premiered on the Fox Network on September 13, 2005. The show is based on forensic anthropology and forensic archaeology, with each episode focusing on an FBI case file concerning the mystery behind human remains brought by FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) to the forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan (Emily Deschanel). The rest of the cast includes Michaela Conlin, T. J. Thyne, Eric Millegan, Tamara Taylor, and John Francis Daley.
Created by Hart Hanson, the series is very loosely based on the life of author and forensic anthropologist Kathy Reichs,[1] who also produces the show. Its title character, Temperance Brennan, is named after the protagonist of Reichs' crime novel series. Conversely, Dr. Brennan writes successful mystery novels based around a fictional (in the Bones universe) forensic anthropologist named Kathy Reichs. Bones is a joint production by Josephson Entertainment, Far Field Productions and 20th Century Fox Television.[2]
The series was renewed for a sixth season, which premiered September 23, 2010.[3]
In order to make Bones a unique crime drama in the midst of the multiple procedural dramas that already populated network television like the Law & Order and CSI franchises, Hanson decided to infuse the show with as much dark humor and character development as possible.[5] Another element conceived for the show was the "Angelator", a holographic projector whose use is to replace flashbacks that are often used by other procedural shows. In addition to their expositional purposes, the holographic images, which are created by visual effects, brought a unique visual style to the show that the producers were looking for.[6]
Emily Deschanel was cast in the role of Temperance Brennan just before production began on the Bones pilot.[1] After Deschanel finished the film Glory Road, the film's producer Jerry Bruckheimer recommended that she audition for Bones.[8] Deschanel impressed Hart Hanson at her audition with her assertiveness. In a tense moment in the audition scene, David Boreanaz stepped closer to Deschanel. Deschanel held her ground rather than retreating. Hanson remarked that, in such a situation, "90% of actors would take a step back".[9] Deschanel was subsequently cast in the role.
In Season 4, Eric Millegan (who played Zack Addy) was replaced by a succession of lab assistants. One—Scott Starett (played by Michael Badalucco, formerly of The Practice)—is much older than the typical grad student.[10] Marisa Coughlan guest-starred in a few midseason episodes as FBI agent Payton Perotta, who was brought to the Jeffersonian as a temporary substitute for Booth when he was incapacitated.[11]
The series premiere of Bones attracted an average of 10.0 million viewers with 6.7% household share and 11% household rating. It was the highest number of viewers Fox has received for a prime time Thursday-night drama series premiere since 24 premiered in 2001. Bones finished first among the 18 to 49 years old demographic and in total viewers in its Thursday 8:00 pm ET timeslot.[19] New York described the show as "the best drama of the new network season" and a "sexed-up variation of all the CSIs".[20] Regarding the show's procedural structure, Entertainment Weekly notes that Bones has a "pretty standard Crossing Jordan/CSI-style framework" but holds up because of the chemistry between the two lead characters; "that old Sam-and-Diane, Maddie-and-David, Mulder-and-Scully opposites-attract stuff never feels standard when it's done right."[21]
Following the broadcast of the series' third episode, Fox ordered a full season of Bones.[22] It was renewed for a second season after its strong performance in ratings in the timeslot following American Idol and on its own without the American Idol's lead-in audience.[23] Overall, the first season of Bones ranked 60th in viewership among prime-time shows and 53rd among the 18 to 49 year old demographic, with a seasonal average of 8.9 million viewers.[24]
The second season premiere attracted 8.61 million viewers in its Wednesday 8:00 pm timeslot, finishing second among the 18 to 49 years old demographic and first in total viewership with 6.7% household rating and 11% household share.[25] As a lead-in for American Idol, the second season finale of Bones obtained 10.88 million viewers with 3.5% household rating and 11% household share. It tied first in viewership among the 18 to 49 years old demographic with The Price Is Right Million Dollar Spectacular on CBS.[26] In the 2006-07 television season, Bones improved its ranking to 50th place in viewership among prime-time shows with 9.4 million viewers and was ranked 51st among the 18 to 49 year old demographic.
The show improved its ranking during its third season, placing 47th overall. Although, its overall viewership was down from the previous season, averaging 8.9 million, the same as its first season.
The fourth season was its most successful as it improved its ranking once again, placing 32nd overall and had its highest overall viewership, averaging 10 million.
The second season premiered on the Fox network on August 30, 2006 and retained its Wednesday 8:00 pm ET timeslot. The second season finale was aired on May 16, 2007, ending its second season with 21 episodes. One episode, "Player Under Pressure", was left unaired, which was originally scheduled to be broadcast as the second season's 19th episode but was pulled by the Fox network in the United States after the Virginia Tech massacre. The plot involved the discovery of the human remains of a college athlete,[27] and eventually aired on April 21, 2008 as a part of the third season.
The third season premiered on September 25, 2007 in its original premiere timeslot, Tuesday 8:00 pm ET. The show went on hiatus on November 27, 2007 because of the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike and returned on April 14, 2008 in the Monday 8:00 pm ET timeslot.[28] The shortened third season finished on May 19, 2008 with a total of 15 episodes.
The fourth season premiered September 3, 2008 on the Fox network in the Wednesday 8:00 pm ET timeslot with a two-hour episode that was filmed on location in London.[29] Originally scheduled to return from hiatus on January 15, 2009, Bones instead resumed one week later because of preemption by President Bush's farewell address. As a result, two new episodes, "Double Trouble in the Panhandle" and "Fire in the Ice," were aired back-to-back on January 22, 2009, airing in new timeslot, Thursday 8:00 pm ET. The fourth season finale aired May 14, 2009 with a total of 26 episodes.
The fifth season premiered September 17, 2009 on the Fox network and retained its Thursday 8:00 pm ET timeslot. The fifth season consisted of 22 episodes and finished its season on May 20, 2010.
Off-network syndication of Bones began airing the week of October 3–4, 2009 on TNT.
Emily Deschanel was nominated for a 2006 Satellite Award for Best Actress – Television Series Drama.
The series has also won two Genesis Awards for the episodes "The Woman in Limbo" and "The Tough Man in the Tender Chicken" for raising awareness on the issues of pig slaughtering and industrial chicken farms, while the episode "The Finger in the Nest" received a nomination.
Bones is nominated for two awards at the 37th People's Choice Awards. The series is nominated for Favorite TV Crime Drama and Emily Deschanel is nominated for Favorite TV Crime Fighter.[34]
Currently, there are two print books related to the series, one a novel and the other an official guide. Buried Deep (ISBN 978-1-4165-2461-8), written by Max Allan Collins, was published by Pocket Star on February 28, 2006. The book is based on the characters in the television series rather than the characters created by Kathy Reichs, who had inspired the concept of Bones. Its plot focuses on Dr. Temperance Brennan and Special Agent Seeley Booth's investigation into the skeletal remains left on the steps of a federal building and its connection with a Chicago mob family. Bones: The Official Companion: Seasons 1 & 2 (ISBN 978-1-84576-539-2) is written by Paul Ruditis and published by Titan Books, released on October 16, 2007. The book includes cast and crew interviews, episode guides and a background detail on real-life forensics.[35]
Fox has made extensive use of the internet to promote Bones. Prior to the broadcast of the second season episode "The Glowing Bones in the Old Stone House", profiles of the characters involved in the episode were put up on their own MySpace web page. The blog entries of the characters were created to give insight into the potential suspects to be featured in the episode. In the episode, Brennan and her team uses clues from these web pages, which the viewers can also access.[36]
A spin-off series consisting of 26 two-minute episodes, called Bones: Skeleton Crew, was produced by Fox and launched through a partnership with Sprint Nextel in conjunction with MasterCard's sponsorship. It was released to Sprint TV subscribers in November 2006 and released on the official website of Bones on December 4, 2006. The episodes do not feature the show's main cast; its plot revolves around three Jeffersonian Institute lab technicians who use their skills to solve a mystery.[37][38]
Bonus content was posted by Fox on Bones' official site during the third season, which include short videos featuring Booth and Brennan waiting to see Dr. Sweets.

Main article: List of Bones characters
- Emily Deschanel as Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan – a forensic anthropologist working at the renowned Jeffersonian Institute located in Washington, D.C.. She is a logical empiricist and author of crime fiction based on her experiences. Her lack of social skills provides most of the show's lighthearted humor, primarily through her catchphrase, "I don't know what that means," whenever a pop culture reference is introduced into conversation.
- David Boreanaz as Seeley Booth – Brennan aids FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth in his investigations involving human remains that cannot be identified without Brennan's skills in Forensic Anthropology. Booth is often used to provide a layman's translation of the scientific jargon-filled dialog. He is known for his ability to guess people's motives, a quality unknown to Brennan. He is a former U.S. Army Ranger and Special Forces sniper. He hates clowns. It is revealed in the Season 5 episode "The Proof in the Pudding" that he is a collateral descendant of John Wilkes Booth.
- Michaela Conlin as Angela Montenegro – a forensic artist at the Jeffersonian Institute and Dr. Brennan's best friend. Angela is Dr. Brennan's team specialist in craniofacial reconstruction—helping to determine what their victims looked like before death to help determine their identity—and can generate holograms using her 3-dimensional graphics program (The Angelator) to simulate various virtual scenarios of a crime to help determine cause of death. She is open, friendly, and caring and constantly tries to draw Dr. Brennan out of the lab. Angela is the daughter of Billy Gibbons, guitarist of ZZ Top, starring as himself. In Season 5, she marries Jack Hodgins and becomes pregnant in Season 6.
- T. J. Thyne as Dr. Jack Hodgins – an entomologist who is also an expert on spores and minerals but whose hobby is conspiracy theories. He helps teach Zack how to be socially normal. His family is extremely wealthy and are major sponsors of the Jeffersonian; Hodgins wishes for this status to remain concealed from his bosses because he does not want to be seen as a superior (it eventually came out during an investigation, although nobody has allowed it to significantly impact their relationships with him). He marries Angela and is ecstatic to find out he is going to be a father.
- Eric Millegan as Dr. Zack Addy (seasons 1–3; recurring afterward) – introduced as Dr. Brennan's graduate student and assistant at the Jeffersonian Institute at the start of the series. In the second season, he receives his doctorate in Forensic Anthropology and Mechanical Engineering and becomes a professional forensic anthropologist. Zack is closer to the stereotypical geek than anyone else on the team. Although well-meaning, helpful, and friendly, when a situation calls for social interaction or intuition, he is often lost. During the course of events leading up to the death of Howard Epps, Zack was almost killed when he unwittingly triggered a pressure sensor tied to a bomb affixed to the headless body of Caroline Epps, only to be saved by Booth. He is extremely intelligent; in episode 11 it is said that his IQ is significantly above 163 (which is already a genius level). He is also Hodgins' best friend, and lives in the upper part of Hodgins' garage. Zack was removed from his position on Dr. Brennan's team during the Gormogon episodes, where he was revealed to be the serial killer's apprentice, and is currently residing in an asylum – although it has since been determined that he is not as "crazy" as was initially assumed, Zack setting up his diagnosis so that he would go to the asylum as he felt he would do poorly in prison. Zack is also known as "Zacharoni", "Z-Man", and is "King of the Lab". In "The Pain in the Heart" episode, Dr. Saroyan's trophy recognizing Zack as "King of the Lab" is revealed.
- Jonathan Adams as Dr. Daniel Goodman (season 1) – a former archaeologist turned administrator, who is also the director of the Jeffersonian Institute. He is a loving husband and father to a pair of five-year-old twin girls. His way of working leads Hodgins to think of him as subjective, long winded, and lacking the qualities of a pure scientist; although the antagonism between the two develops into a friendly rivalry as the series progresses. He has not made any appearances beyond the first season. As of Episode 23 "The Titan on the Tracks" Dr. Goodman is said to be on a sabbatical.
- Tamara Taylor as Dr. Camille Saroyan (season 2–present) – is the Head of the Forensic Division at Jeffersonian Institute and a pathologist. She was born in The Bronx and was a coroner in New York City. At first, she and Dr. Brennan have an uneasy working relationship. Dr. Saroyan had a romantic relationship with Booth prior to her joining the Jeffersonian and a brief relationship during the show. Since Season 4, she has a teenage adopted daughter, Michelle, because of her prior relationship with Michelle's murdered father.
- John Francis Daley as Dr. Lance Sweets (season 3–present) – a psychologist assigned to Booth and Brennan after Booth arrests her father. He habitually tries to study the complex relationship between Booth and Brennan; and even his interaction with other characters can be questionable.
Production
Conception
The concept of Bones was developed during the latter part of the pitching season of 2004 when 20th Century Fox approached series creator Hart Hanson with an idea for a forensics show. Hanson was asked to meet with executive producer Barry Josephson, who had purchased the rights to produce a documentary on the forensic anthropologist and author Kathy Reichs. Although Hanson was reluctant about being involved in making a police procedural, he signed on and wrote the pilot episode after having an intensive meeting with Josephson about the show.[4] As the show is based on the works of Reichs, the writers constantly involve her in the process of producing the episodes' storylines.In order to make Bones a unique crime drama in the midst of the multiple procedural dramas that already populated network television like the Law & Order and CSI franchises, Hanson decided to infuse the show with as much dark humor and character development as possible.[5] Another element conceived for the show was the "Angelator", a holographic projector whose use is to replace flashbacks that are often used by other procedural shows. In addition to their expositional purposes, the holographic images, which are created by visual effects, brought a unique visual style to the show that the producers were looking for.[6]
Casting
David Boreanaz was the first actor to be cast in Bones. Series creator Hart Hanson described the actors who had auditioned for the role of Seeley Booth as "pretty boy waifs" and immediately responded when the head of the studio, Dana Walden, suggested Boreanaz for the role.[1] Boreanaz was offered the role but was unenthusiastic about getting involved after a difficult meeting with executive producers Barry Josephson and Hart Hanson, even though he thought the script was well written. However, after the producers contacted him again to convince him to accept the role, Boreanaz agreed to sign on and was cast as Seeley Booth.[6][7]Emily Deschanel was cast in the role of Temperance Brennan just before production began on the Bones pilot.[1] After Deschanel finished the film Glory Road, the film's producer Jerry Bruckheimer recommended that she audition for Bones.[8] Deschanel impressed Hart Hanson at her audition with her assertiveness. In a tense moment in the audition scene, David Boreanaz stepped closer to Deschanel. Deschanel held her ground rather than retreating. Hanson remarked that, in such a situation, "90% of actors would take a step back".[9] Deschanel was subsequently cast in the role.
In Season 4, Eric Millegan (who played Zack Addy) was replaced by a succession of lab assistants. One—Scott Starett (played by Michael Badalucco, formerly of The Practice)—is much older than the typical grad student.[10] Marisa Coughlan guest-starred in a few midseason episodes as FBI agent Payton Perotta, who was brought to the Jeffersonian as a temporary substitute for Booth when he was incapacitated.[11]
Filming
Most of Bones is filmed in Los Angeles, California, despite the fact that the show is mainly set in Washington, D.C., where the fictional Jeffersonian Institute is located. The external shots are of the Natural History Museum in Los Angeles. The interiors of the Jeffersonian Institute were specially built on a large soundstage at the 20th Century Fox lot in Century City, Los Angeles, California.[12] The two-part fourth season premiere was filmed on location in London, United Kingdom.[edit] Music
The soundtrack album titled Bones Original Television Soundtrack, produced by Maria Alonte McCoy and Billy Gottlieb, was released in 2008.[13] It contains 13 songs recorded by popular artists for the show.Broadcast and release

[edit] Online distribution
Fox has released free episodes of Bones and several other primetime series online for viewing on Netflix, Hulu, and its MySpace website, which is owned by the same parent company, News Corporation, that owns Fox. This began on October 3, 2006 but access is restricted to residents from the United States only.[30] Bones is also available on their official website via Fox On Demand, while Canadian viewers may watch recent episodes for free on the GlobalTV website.Potential spin-off series
Fox is developing a potential spin-off series that would be built around a new recurring character that would be introduced in the sixth season. Once the casting is complete, and the network, the studio, and Bones producers feel the actor is capable of carrying a new series, the character of Walter Sherman will appear in a 2011 episode that begins filming on December 6, 2010. The potential spin-off series would also be created by Bones creator/executive producer Hart Hanson, and be based on The Locator series of two books written by Richard Greener. The character of Walter is described as an eccentric but amusing recluse in high demand for his ability to find anything. He is skeptical of everything—he suffered brain damage while overseas, which explains his constant paranoia—and known for asking offensive, seemingly irrelevant questions to get to the truth.[31]Effect
Critical response
USA Today comments that compared to other crime shows, the show "is built on a more traditional and solid foundation: the strength of its characters" and "what sets Tuesday's Bones premiere apart from the procedural pack are stars Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz, as the season's most appealing new crime fighters."[32] On the other hand, Media Life Magazine says that while Bones has "an amazingly clever notion, brilliant even", its "execution doesn't match the conception" and based on its first episode, the show "fails to evolve into a gripping series. In fact, it quickly becomes so derivative of so much else on television—especially, strangely, X-Files—that one might even call it bone-headed."[33]Awards and nominations
Bones was nominated for Outstanding Art Direction for a Single Camera Series for the episode "The Hero in the Hold" at the 61st Primetime Emmy Awards.Emily Deschanel was nominated for a 2006 Satellite Award for Best Actress – Television Series Drama.
The series has also won two Genesis Awards for the episodes "The Woman in Limbo" and "The Tough Man in the Tender Chicken" for raising awareness on the issues of pig slaughtering and industrial chicken farms, while the episode "The Finger in the Nest" received a nomination.
Bones is nominated for two awards at the 37th People's Choice Awards. The series is nominated for Favorite TV Crime Drama and Emily Deschanel is nominated for Favorite TV Crime Fighter.[34]

Move for healthier life...
Masih ada lagi 3 hari sblm 2011. People always talk about azam...so do I.
Selain nk jadi manusia yg lebih baik mcm azam aku waktu besday yg ke 29 hr tu...aku nk tambah 1 azam lagi. Insya-Allah...
Aku nk turunkan berat badan...kalo x boleh byk, nk mcm sblm aku conceive dulu ataupun plg koman mcm selepas abih confienment dulu. Aku target setahun utk buang 20kilo...adeh, byknya...2 kampit beras nk kena buang. Gila punya naik kan? Anak baru nk masuk 3 tahun.
Selain nk sihat, aku x mau jd macam peti ais bergerak...x besh langsung. Lagi 1, hubby dah back to his weight... aku x mo la kalah. Lagi 1 reason yg paling kuat, aku kena buang 20 kilo tu kalo nk senang conceive as per past experience which aku buang 20kilo tu sblm conceive.
Aku target baby 2012, insya-Allah kalo diberikan rezeki. Kurniaan milik Allah, usaha milik aku.
Caranya? Pasti lah cara yg sihat...mcmana? Dah berhasil nnt, at least 5 kilo...aku akan share rahsianya. Buat masa la...biarlah rahsia. Yg pasti, aku x buat sedut lemak, aku x buat pintasan gastrik, aku x telan pil segala bagai....
Doakan aku berjaya...insya-Allah....beauty is pain but healthy life cure all the pain.
Tahun depan dah nk masuk 30, kalo bdn mcm peti ais ni takut penyakit hinggap...segala mcm penyakit la bukan dia kira umur...umur 20 tahun pun boleh kena sakit jantung...pemakanan la byk yg menyumbang... suma nk cepat...suma nk drive thru....amik la habuan...peringatan utk diri sendiri...
Hehehehe....
Cayok...cayok...
