Welcome back, Bones. You had it a bit rough there from January to March but I'm happy to see you pulled through. Now, don't screw up the finale, kthxbai.

May episode of Bones to feature crossover with another popular Fox property, but you'll never guess which one.



Television producers will do crazy things for ratings, particularly when it's time to gear up for the end of a show's season. Characters perish, guest stars drop in, and sexual tension thickens to a soupy mess. But the hardest thing to pull off is the crossover--inviting one show into the universe of another.

Fox's Bones is going to attempt the tricky maneuver later this season, but this one is going to be on the near-impossible side of the scale. All you Bones fans have a seat, take a deep breath, and clear your head, because Bones is going to try a crossover episode with…

…Family Guy. I'll just let that sink in for a while.

First reported by EW.com, the crossover seems like the result of a double-dog dare or peyote trip and no doubt has fans of Bones (and Family Guy) utterly perplexed. Here's how it's reportedly going to go down (spoilers follow--read at your own risk):

Special Agent Steeley Booth (David Boreanaz) is due to come down with a "life-threatening" illness during a May episode, which causes him to hallucinate like a regular at a Grateful Dead show. One of the side effects of the illness will actually make Booth think he's hanging out with Family Guy's Stewie--the would-be world-dominating baby of the animated Griffin clan.

"It's not just a fantasy of ours," Bones executive producer Stephen Nathan told EW.com. "There's medical research to back up what's going on with Booth. There are conditions where you can see cartoon characters."

Stewie will actually help set up what the producers really want to ultimately happen, which is have Booth and Temperance "Bones" Brennan (Emily Deschanel) do some bonin' of their own in the season finale.

Like you, I thought this may be some elaborate hoax when I first read it. But I contacted reps for both Bones and Family Guy at Fox, and they confirmed that Stewie's visit to Booth's mind is indeed being planned.

I'm speechless. Someone please say something.

Watching that episode right now.. Can't stop laughing!!! Umm.. grows some serious potential for being sad at the end. Definitely recommend watching this episode.

Yeah, it was hilarious! Except for the end. I'm glad they didn't drag the crossover part out too much.
So excited about the finale!!

I was SO WORRIED they were going to **** up last night's episode, but they pulled it off surprisingly well. I admit I started tearing up at the end, mainly because the entire cast (well, except for Hodgins, lol) was. I liked the way they made it like a little cliffhanger at the end, and that Brennan did what she did. And David's performance - seriously, the man's got chops. I am so excited for the finale! At 7 p.m. next Thursday, I'm going to be in front of the tv, and nobody better call me, for they will get a verbal beatdown for interrupting me during the Bones finale, lmao.

So, the finale was kind of crap. But I'm watching a bunch of episodes again, and I'm more and more convinced that Hodgins is a beautiful, beautiful man. Am I the only one? Seriously!
