Exclusive Interview: DAVID BOREANAZ TALKS MORE BONES SEASON 2 AND LADIES, LADIES, LADIES

Stephen Fry joins the cast, and David Duchovny is a great director

By SEAN ELLIOTT, Senior Editor

On BONES this season, David Boreanaz has gotten around, if you know what I mean. From season one, his character, FBI Special Agent Steely Booth has bedded down or at least had some kind of contact with most of the main females in the cast. The one person he hasn’t slept with is Bones herself, but you never know what the future might hold.
 
iF MAGAZINE caught up with the suave actor behind the suave Agent Booth and got the 411 on who is guest starring on the show next, and where all of this bed hopping will leave our favorite main characters.
 
iF MAGAZINE: So you’ve had a lot of sex this season. Who is next on the list?
 
DAVID BOREANAZ: Yeah. Seriously, if we continue to push these characters the way we are pushing them now, we will slowly convince the network that’s its more of a comedy than a drama. [Grins] I think if we continue to study what works for us with the characters, study that aspect of it and find those moments, that’s going to lead us to more than just sex on the show my friend. That’s what it's all about.
 
iF: You’ve had a lot more entanglements in so many different levels with your character this season, are you enjoying the role with more complications?

 
BOREANAZ: Very much so. Again, it’s a testimony to what Emily and I bring to the scenes and how we want to play them and how we can think outside that box which can be very constrictive. To use that [chemistry] and manage it so that characters can go down some very unorthodox roads then I think you have a very lethal combination of potential and how a show can really blow up. I think that’s going to happen to our show.
 
iF: You’ve had Ryan O’Neal as Bones’ dad, any other guest stars this season that you are excited about?
 
BOREANAZ: Stephen Fry is going to be playing my therapist. It’s very nice and a lot of fun. [Laughs]
 
iF: How do you feel, now at mid-season with how the second round of the series is shaping up and heading forward?
 
BOREANAZ: I love it. I think the second half is going to be even more out there, and that’s what we want.
 
iF: You have creative input into the series, are you breaking season three yet?
 
BOREANAZ: We kind of shape where our characters want to go. We’re kind of shaping the dynamics of where these characters can go, so I think for us to be able to do that and for show runners to allow us to do that will only create more and better stories for our characters. I don’t care about the procedural. That’s not my job. I don’t want to go down that road.
 
iF: How was having David Duchovny come in and guest direct an episode?
 
BOREANAZ: It was great man! It was cool. I enjoyed hanging with him and I learned a lot from his input. We really gelled nicely, and it's funny how these directors come in after being told by a show runner how to do the show, and do things that are very strange. You have to embrace that because; they don’t look at it as a straightforward show.

Thanks for the great interview! David's such a great guy and always has so much to say about a show he so visibly loves and embraces, not to mention his comments about Emily that show how much chemistry those two have! Can't wait for more Bones and more interviews from my favourite actor and actress.

Edgeoforever from NYC, NY sez....
yet another brilliant interview from "If"! You guys have the coolest questions for a very cool guy whom we all love! There's nothing I like to hear more than that David has a hand in shaping his character. It's the best thing of that series (not that the rest of it is too shabby either). But it's Booth (and David) that make me look forward to Wednesdays. And it seems our numbers are swelling as of late. So, once again, thanks to the If crew for an enjoyable read.
