Detective stories today are very popular among fans of foreign series. The main characters, as a rule, are FBI agents or talented police officers, but there are exceptions too. If you are looking for an original story, then pay attention to the series “Bones”. The description of the series of the first season is of genuine interest, and it is almost impossible to stop.
Plot
This detective television series is dedicated to solving crimes. The idea is far from new, but the creator of Hart Hanson still managed to add a twist. The main characters of his creation are anthropologists from the Jefferson Institute, who actively collaborate with the Bureau of Investigation. They get the most hopeless things at first glance - when only rotten remains remain from the human body. The actors of the series “Bones” during the filming learned by heart all the complex laboratory terms and research.
The team of anthropologists is led by the charming Dr. Temperance Brennan. During difficult investigations, she has to deal not only with “ancient” crimes. Corruption has not spared American justice.
Based on novels
The basis for the television series was a series of detective novels written by Katie Ricks. The charming blonde herself is a forensic anthropologist and scientist, so she did not have to invent an image of the main character for a long time.
The first book about Dr. Brennan, for which Rix received the Arthur Ellis Award, she wrote in 1997. To date, 13 novels have been released from Katy’s pen. Her works are incredibly successful and translated into 30 languages.
The series “Bones” (season 1), viewers saw in September 2005. Ten years later, fans met the eleventh season, which once again confirms the popularity of the series. By the way, Katie Ricks acted as its producer.
Dr. Brennan
The role of anthropologist Temperance Brennan went to Emily Deschanel. An outstanding scientist and a very attractive woman - the main character seems flawless in every way. To make it closer to the audience and to lower it a little from heaven to earth, the creators of the series decided with the help of problems in their personal lives.
Finding the right partner Brennan is far from easy. However, under the mask of a charming know-it-all, a fragile and vulnerable woman is still hiding. From season to season, fans of the series are waiting for a novel between Temperance and her FBI partner Sealy Booth.
Star family
The series "Bones", the 2nd season of which started in August 2006, brought the actress Emily Deschanel another portion of fame. Emily, 29, had already starred in such famous films as Cold Mountain, Spider-Man 2, Alamo, and Boogeyman.
Today it seems that Emily could not choose another profession, however, like her sister. Their mother Mary Joe Deschanel is an actress, and their father Caleb Deschanel is a famous cameraman, nominee for an Oscar.
Both daughters Caleb and Mary Joe chose the world of cinema. It is worth noting that Emily and Zoe are incredibly talented and successful.
Many spectators did not immediately get used to the character of Dr. Brennan performed by Emily Deschanel. The lack of sympathy and emotions at first prevents one from understanding the character of the heroine, but through the efforts of the actress and screenwriters Temperance opens up to the audience. With each season, she becomes more sensual, dreamy and gentle - you must admit, not every detective television series can show such an ambiguous character.
Faithful partner
Dr. Brennan and Seeley Booth are more than partners. Their relationship from the very beginning become an occasion for gossip, but the more interesting the series “Bones”. Season 1 demonstrates to the audience what a gap lies between the main characters. Agent Booth is the exact opposite of Temperance.
Seely hates science, but loves to joke - it is he who invents Brennan the nickname of Bones. Sociability, sensitivity and lack of indifference - Seeley Booth is always ready to help. The audience eagerly awaited the love affair of their partners, because they would become an ideal couple.
In the middle of the fifth season, Booth reveals his feelings to the main character, but receives a refusal. The scriptwriters prepared a lot of tests for this couple, because the series “Bones” is not so simple. Season 6 made fans very nervous. We will not tell all the details of the love line, but before the happy end, Booth and Brennan will have to go through a lot.
Angel in the past
The true success of David Brianaz is due to the project “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”. The role of the mystical Angel (the vampire to whom the soul was returned) became the basis of his acting career. Ratings of the series allowed to remove the spin-off “Angel”, where the character of David became central.
Prior to participating in the Bones project, Borianaz starred in the horror film Valentine's Day, the television movie Love on Occasion, and voiced one of the characters in Kingdom Hearts.
Together with Emily Deschanel David from the third season joined the team of executive producers.
Best friend
Dr. Brennan is not the easiest character, so her colleagues are definitely not envious. Despite some coldness and a peculiar relationship with people, Temperance has a girlfriend - Angela Montenegro (Michaela Conlin). The holder of a bachelor's degree in computer technology and fine art is engaged in judicial reconstruction of individuals.
Angela is the exact opposite of Dr. Temperance. She often gets acquainted with men, likes to date and is not at all afraid to have a serious relationship.
The series "Bones" (season 2) shows the audience a real wave of feelings that swept Dr. Montenegro and her colleague Jack Hodgins. These are romantic meetings, flirting at work and endless partings and reunions.
Michaela Conlin
The unusual appearance of Michaela Conlin is the merit of Chinese mother Denise Conlin and Irish father Fran Colin. Creativity manifested itself in a girl in high school in South Wyethall, where she often played in performances.
After leaving school, Conlin decided to leave the small town and entered the faculty of science and art at New York University. The aspiring actress worked at the Atlantic Company Theater. In search of roles, Michaela Conlin moved to Los Angeles and almost immediately got a role in the TV series “Medics”. In 2004, she starred in the serial film The DA, but the series “Bones” brought her real fame.
The description of the series of the third season reveals to the audience another Angela Montenegro. It turns out that a brilliant specialist in face reconstruction once married while intoxicated and does not remember the name of her legal spouse at all. Film critics note that Conlin brilliantly coped with the role of a loving beauty. In 2008, Michaela was awarded the Asian Excellence Award for Best Television Actress.
Zack Eddy
Actors of the series "Bones" showed the audience a lot of life situations. Every community has a weak personality, and at Jefferson Institute it's Dr. Zack Eddy (Eric Millegan). At first, the young man was an intern Temperance Brennan, and after defending his doctoral dissertation he became a full member of the “anthropological” team.
Zach is an incredibly talented young man with a photographic memory, whose IQ exceeds 163. Eddie has absolutely no communication skills with people, and there can be no talk of relationships with girls. The young scientist desperately needs a guide who could help him get comfortable in society. However, colleagues are only joking with him.
Unfortunately, Dr. Eddy is influenced by the cannibal killer and becomes his accomplice and apprentice. Zack Eddie’s career ends after establishing insanity and placement in a psychiatric hospital.
Eric Millegan was approved for the role of a gifted young man almost immediately. Before appearing in the series “Bones,” the actor starred in the episodes “Law and Order: Criminal Intent”, “Central Street 100” and “Die Your Enthusiasm”.
