"I'm a vegan, but you can be really unhealthy as a vegan, too. Vegan just means that you don't use animal products, so you don't wear leather, you don't wear wool, and you don't eat animal products. But you can eat french fries and stuff like that all day long." - Emily Deschanel

Yesterday, Emily attended the Comic Con 2012 with David Boreanaz and executive producer Stephen Nathan. I’m still sourcing out a video of the complete Bones panel but did manage to find this 7-minute clip. The panelists were very charming and the clip is definitely worth checking out!
The Bones stars gathered with executive producer Stephen Nathan, who filling in for Bones creator Hart Hanson, who was unable to attend due to an eye injury. The trio offered some scoop on the show’s upcoming Season 8, and Fox released a trailer that contains some new footage from the upcoming season.
TV Guide Magazine columnist William Keck reports that Season 8 will pick up three months after the Season 7 finale, when Brennan was framed for murder by Pelant and had to flee with the couple’s daughter. Nathan revealed that Season 8 will feature a “darker tone” than previous seasons, and Pelant will “continue to be a major force.” Head over to the gallery for the latest additions.
Bones may have had a small panel of only three people, but they proved quantity doesn’t equal quantity. Read a rundown of the fun that went down during the Bones panel in Ballroom 20.
The Panel: Emily Deschanel, David Boreanaz and executive producer Stephen Nathan The Big Revelations: Many! Here’s a rundown:
Dancing King?
An undercover episode is being planned that will find Booth ballroom dancing! “Will I be wearing a tight, shiny, one-piece suit?” Boreanaz asked, mildly concerned.
Cam’s (not so new) Love:
Cam’s getting a boyfriend — and it’s someone we know! “[It will be someone] who will be very interesting to see her with,” says Nathan.
Hacker Christopher Pelant Will Stick Around for Much of the Season:
“Pelant will be a cloud that hangs over them,” says Nathan.
Booth’s Family:
Booth’s family will be explored “a little more,” says Nathan. “I think it’s time to see his mother.”
Will we ever see THAT night?
It doesn’t sound like there are plans to flash back to the night Bones and Booth first slept together, but Nathan said separation might bring them close together once again. “They’ve been apart for three months, who knows?” Meanwhile, Boreanaz joked that he’s disappointed that his recommendation for the pair’s first encounter was not taken. “I wanted to put her up on the washing machine and just go at it. I had change for a dollar!” he joked.
Bones on the Run:
The new season will pick up three months after the season finale, but it’s likely that Booth hasn’t spent all that time twiddling his thumbs. “At this point everyone’s patience is very, very thing,” said Nathan, who wouldn’t share the details of Bones’ time on the run. All the shared? “It’s a big reveal.”
Footage Screened:
A HOT sizzle reel, that you might be able to check out very soon here on EW.com. UPDATE: See it below!
Least Incisive Audience Question:
The Joss Whedon fan who “slept on the curb” to ask about getting Boreanaz to collaborate with Whedon again. “The experiences I had on the show were great….we’ll see. You guys keep pushing and maybe that’ll happen one day.”
The Winner of the Panel:
David Boreanaz because he knows how to get a rise out of the crowd. Between proposing an Angel movie, to talk of washing machine sex, to bashing The Vampire Diaries. (“Everyone carries around a diary? I’m confused. ‘Oh, I made love to a vampire night last night.’)
Question: I can’t stop thinking about how miserable Booth must feel alone in his house and how much Brennan and Christine are missing him. Please, can you cheer me up with a nice Bones spoiler?
Ausiello: The season premiere is tentatively titled… “The Future in the Past.” What does it mean?! “It’s a deep, dark secret,” responds exec producer Stephen Nathan as I twirl my mustache and plot a workaround involving Hart Hanson and Comic-Con. Mwahahahahahahaha.
I’ve just noticed screen captures from the last two episodes from season seven were not added into the gallery … I’ve added screen captures from the episode of Bones titled, The Suit on the Set into the gallery! For those that have not seen the episode, please be advised the screen captures will contain spoilers. Head over to the gallery for the latest additions.
Emily Deschanel chatted with ET about losing the baby weight and rumors of her show ending. The actress, who gave birth to her first child named Henry Hornsby in September 2011, tells Entertainment Tonight:
“My character was pregnant she’s the normal woman. She can take the time that it takes to lose the weight and I’m doing that myself. Yeah I haven’t lost all my weight yet hopefully I will eventually.”
The actress maintained a vegan diet throughout her pregnancy and has done so for 19 years. On being a new mom Deschanel says, “I love seeing his personality blossom.”
Emily says the rumors about her show not coming back are false. She says filming begins in July. “Our show was picked up months ago so it is coming back for the 8th season in September,” she revealed.
Ask Ausiello posted a spoiler regarding the “bonus” Bones episode. If you want to remain spoiler free, do not read below!
Question: We’re still waiting for some scoop on the bonus Bones episode titled, “The Gunk in the Garage.”
Ausiello: Did I forget to give you that scoop? Sorry, my bad. I’ve known for golly, a month now? The ep finds the team “investigating a victim who has been blown up by a bomb,” explains exec producer Stephen Nathan. “When they ID the victim and go to inform his widow, they find that he is still alive and living with her.” Bonus spoiler, per Nathan: “We also see Sweets running point in the investigation with a new and very attractive FBI agent played by [Shark's] Danielle Panabaker.”
Emily was a presenter at the 2nd Annual Critics’ Choice Awardson June 18th! The awards were held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Head over to the gallery for the latest additions.
Last night, Emily attended the Farm Sanctuary Benefit in Los Angeles. Last year, Emily was the official spokesperson for the Walk for Farm Animals, an annual event to raise funds and awareness about farm animal abuse. Head over to the gallery for the latest additions.
Bones creator Hart Hanson went on a Twitter hiatus after the show’s May finale, but he says “about 400 e-mails” alerted him to comments star David Boreanaz made on Twitter Wednesday night about next month’s San Diego Comic-Con appearance “quite possibly” being the show’s last. Boreanaz also included comments about being “a free agent” come next spring, noting “you must always keep your options open.” Are the show’s producers, who returned to the writers’ room on Monday, plotting season 8 as though it’s the series’ last? No, Hanson tells EW exclusively. “We are in no way planning for it to be the last season. I mean anything can happen in a complicated world,” he says, “but we’re very, very confident in having at least a season 9, and I can see as far as season 10 before my eyes get misty.”
Some fans are wondering if this is Boreanaz, whose contract is up at the end of season 8 along with costar Emily Deschanel’s, starting negotiations early. “If he is, then man, hats off to him. I would like him to consult with my agents next time if he’s thinking that far in advance,” Hanson says, with a laugh. “Really, I think more likely he’s just playing around…. If you cross Tom Sawyer with Ferris Bueller, you get David Boreanaz. He loves a brouhaha. That should be his middle name. But I don’t think, even for him, he meant to cause this brouhaha.” Hanson can’t completely rule it out though. “All his incendiary tweets,” he says, with another laugh, “have an element of truth to them. It’s never out of nowhere. It’s always connected to something, and his deal is up at the end of season 8, so it’s like, ‘Hey, how much do you love me?’ It’s possible. But again, that’s awfully far in advance.”
Boreanaz has shown no signs of weariness or dissatisfaction with the series, Hanson says. “I believe he is certainly hoping for season 9. I don’t think he’s getting tired of it. I think he’ll probably want a little more money when he next has a chance, but that’s completely par for the course. That’s just the way things go,” he says. But for now, “I know him well enough after all these years. He’s just having some fun,” he says.
Hanson will be writing the season 8 opener with fellow exec producer Stephen Nathan. Brennan (Deschanel), who’s being framed for murder by serial killer/hacker Christopher Pelant (Andrew Leeds), is still on the run, and Pelant is “free and thriving” at the start of the episode. “I think the end of the first episode could be a cliffhanger in its own way. This story is giving us a lot of mileage,” Hanson says. “I’m knockin’ on wood because we haven’t written it yet, but I think it might be our best season opener.” (Source)
A day after Warner Bros. TV announced its lineup for Comic-Con 2012, 20th Century Fox has revealed the shows and stars from its stable of programs that will be featured throughout the dizzying weekend of panels and press rooms. More studios will come out with their schedules in the coming days, but it’s worth noting: Fox is NOT bringing Glee to Comic-Con this year.
FRIDAY, JULY 13 Bones (Fox) | Creator and executive producer Hart Hanson, executive producer Stephen Nathan and stars David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel will be on hand to discuss the shocking finale of Season 7 as well as what’s in store for Booth and Brennan in Season 8.
Although Emily and Bones did not receive Critics’ Choice Award nominations this year, Emily’s younger sister Zooey Deschanel did! Zooey was nominiated for “Best Actress in a Comedy Series” for her work on the FOX series, New Girl.
The winners will be announced at a June 18 awards gala in Beverly Hills. (Source)
