Bones Fall Preview Leaves Me Wishing It Were November


Just saw this preview for Bones on Facebook and had to share it!  I'm super excited and already wishing it's November (okay, in all honesty I've been wishing it were November since the season finale...).

I love Bones and Booth's interaction and it's going to be exciting to see how the baby changes things.  On a total side note, I love Hodgins' little smile as he overhears Booth and Bones bantering.

I read that the season will start with Bones in her third trimester, meaning that she will be delivering it partway through the season.  At first I thought this a little odd, as many shows seem to drag out the pregnancy over the length of the season.  However, I realized two reasons why it's a good thing they're doing it this way:
  1. It will be different from last season, where Angela's pregnancy was drawn out (why repeat the same format two consecutive seasons?)
  2. It will give us a chance to see how Bones & Booth interact after the baby is born 
Reason Number 2 is what I'm really excited about.  That's really the interesting part, right?  So I think it's actually a really good thing they're not stretching out that storyline.

Another thing I'm curious about is Hannah.  It was implied she'd be returning.  I fully expect her to, but in what context?  Will she realize she was an idiot for not saying yes to Booth?  Honestly, I didn't like her - there was an awkward smugness to her, I always thought - but how could you say no to Booth?  Crazy girl. 

I am totally bummed that there will be less episodes this season.  Is this supposed to be Bones' last season?  I hope not, but it sort of has that feeling of impending closure.  With Bones and Booth getting together and having a child, it just seems like the series is nearing its end.
