Bones is an American drama television series on the Fox Network. The show is a forensics and police procedural in which each episode focuses on an FBI case file concerning the mystery behind human remains brought by FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth to the forensic anthropology team of Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan.
While Bones found a massive audience during its long run, it is a show that struggles to balance its quirky character dynamics with the grim reality of its subject matter.
Bones is among the most popular procedural dramas of the 2000s and 2010s, but like all great shows, came to an end — though many still wonder why Bones didn't continue after season 12.
A spin-off series consisting of 26 two-minute episodes, called Bones: Skeleton Crew, was produced by Fox and launched through a partnership with Sprint Nextel in conjunction with MasterCard 's sponsorship.
