Origins

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 of 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. Kathleen Joan "Kathy" Reichs (ˈraɪks is native of Chicago and works as a Forensic anthropologist, an academic and bestselling writer of mystery novels 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. The police procedural is a sub-genre of the mystery story which attempts to convincingly depict the activities of a Police force as they investigate Crimes ^[3] 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 humor and character development as much as possible. The term " Law & Order franchise" is commonly used to describe a number of related American Television programs created by Dick The term " franchise " is commonly used to describe a number of related American Television programs created by Anthony E ^[4] 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. Holography (from the Greek, ὅλος - hólos whole + γραφή - grafē writing drawing is a technique that allows the 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. ^[5]

Casting

David Boreanaz was the first actor to be cast in Bones. David Paul Boreanaz (born May 16, 1969) is an American film and television actor 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. Seeley Booth is a fictional character in the American television series Bones. ^[6] 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. ^[5][7]

Emily Deschanel auditioned for the role of Temperance Brennan close to the production start date of the series pilot, during which time another actress was nearly cast in the role. Emily Erin Deschanel (born October 11, 1976) is an American actress, perhaps best known for her starring role on the Television Temperance Brennan is the protagonist of the American Television series, Bones, which is very loosely based on author Kathy Reichs ^[6] After the filming of Glory Road was completed, producer Jerry Bruckheimer told Deschanel about the role and sent her to Bones' executive producer Barry Josephson to audition for it. Glory Road is an American film directed by James Gartner, released on January 13, 2006. Jerome Leon Bruckheimer (born September 21, 1945) better known by his professional name Jerry Bruckheimer, is an American film ^[8] Deschanel impressed Hanson at her audition, where she showed the character's assertiveness by stepping forward towards Boreanaz after he moved towards her, to which Hanson remarked that "90% of actors would take a step back". ^[9] She was subsequently cast in the role.
