In the Bones universe can you imagine Brennens Wikipedia page? Her dad was on trial for murder, who mother was murdered, she’s a bestselling author who was buried alive, she works with and now has a relationship with a FBI agent who inspires her bestselling novels plural that got turned into a movie where there was a real dead body on the set when she just so happened to be there right before she was framed for murder and went on the run.

The first sentence of her Wikipedia page during this time must’ve been wild:

“Temperance Brennen is a best selling novelist, forensic anthropologist, person of interest in a criminal investigation, and current fugitive”

GET TO KNOW ME  ✰ [2/10] Female Characters ⤷ Dr. Temperance Brennan 

"Two plus two equals four. I put sugar in my coffee and it tastes sweet. The sun comes up because the world turns. These things are beautiful to me. There are mysteries I will never understand, but everywhere I look I see proof that for every effect there is a corresponding cause, even if I can't see it. I find that reassuring."

Notes from the Boneheads interview with Director Greg Yaitanes (Pilot [pictured above!], 1x09 The Man in the Fallout Shelter, 1x10 The Woman at the Airport):

Two notable people read for Zach Addy. While Hart loved Eric Millegan best, Greg's first pick? Jonah Hill apparently did a hilarious audition. John Francis Daley aka Doctor Lance Sweets also read for the part.

----------

Over the show's and podcast's history, we've heard a lot of stories about the meeting that led to Emily being cast. TLDR: the chemistry audition with her and DB was instant success, DB was already cast and they picked her immediately after. What neither I nor Emily had heard before was the context this happened in.

Basically, Temperance Brennan had already been cast. The actress was someone DB had pushed for, they had already filmed scenes with her, it was settled. Hart and Greg weren't thrilled with the chemistry, but everyone was resigned to the situation. The audition with David and Emily was purely a pro forma, end of the day obligation. Accordingly, DB was annoyed, wanted to go home, and visibly didn't give a shit. When they started the audition, he "wasn't giving her anything," didn't put much into his performance, unlike with the other actress. Emily, sensing this as an acting choice, verbally pushed back on him, trying to get a rise out of him, literally getting him to stand up by getting in his face. The interaction worked so well, it both got Emily the job, and changed how Booth was to be written and performed. He went from goofy boyish (apparently "more 'David'") to more standoffish and annoyed. Emily had no idea!

The biggest suspension of disbelief in the season 7 bones finale is that Brennen would leave so much evidence if she murdered someone. Dr. Temperance Brennan would absolutely commit the perfect murder if she killed someone. Do not slander Bones name by implying she left so much evidence behind!!!
