David Boreanaz, famous for his role in the television series “Bones,” recently shared some interesting insights about his co-star Emily Deschanel’s singing habits on set. During an event called Bones: 20th Anniversary Retrospective panel at the inaugural Televerse Festival, Boreanaz revealed that Deschanel’s love for singing show tunes was “driving me crazy.” The actor mentioned that while he enjoys musicals, Deschanel’s constant singing became a bit overwhelming for him.
At the panel, Boreanaz, along with other cast members including Eric Millegan, who portrayed Dr. Zack Addy on the show, recalled Deschanel and the others frequently bursting into song on set. Deschanel’s impromptu musical moments seemed to have left quite an impression on Boreanaz. However, he jokingly expressed his exasperation with the situation, stating, “I like musicals, but it got to a point where I’m like…” This light-hearted banter between the former co-stars offered fans a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes dynamics of the beloved show.
The reunion discussion, moderated by PEOPLE’s Sean Mandell and featuring insights from T.J. Thyne, Hart Hanson, Tamara Taylor, and Michaela Conlin, also saw Deschanel playfully challenging Boreanaz’s knowledge of musical songs. In a comedic exchange, she questioned his ability to name a song from a musical, to which Boreanaz promptly responded with an example from “Annie.” The friendly back-and-forth between the actors showcased the camaraderie they shared while working on the long-running series.
Reflecting on her time filming “Bones,” Deschanel shared that singing show tunes with Millegan was one of her fondest memories from the set. Despite getting into trouble for their harmonious activities, the actress fondly remembered those moments. When asked about the possibility of a reboot, Deschanel remained open to the idea, indicating that she would never say never to revisiting the beloved show in the future. “Bones” ran for 12 successful seasons from 2005 to 2017, earning critical acclaim and a loyal fan base.
In a separate interview at Televerse, Deschanel discussed her rewatch podcast, “Boneheads,” which she co-hosts with fellow “Bones” star Carla Gallo. The podcast allows Deschanel to revisit the series after two decades, offering her a fresh perspective on the show’s evolution over the years. Looking back on the episodes, some of which she hadn’t seen in years, Deschanel found it intriguing to see how the series had aged. She expressed her appreciation for the show’s enduring quality, noting that it held up well even after all this time.
As fans continue to celebrate the legacy of “Bones,” the candid revelations from Boreanaz and Deschanel add a layer of nostalgia to the beloved series. Their playful interactions and shared memories serve as a reminder of the bond formed among the cast members during their time working together. With discussions of a possible reboot lingering in the air, followers of the show remain hopeful for a chance to reunite with their favourite characters on screen once again.
