Bones appears to be slipping deeper into cancellation mire.
Series stars Emily Deschanel, David Boreanaz and executive producer Kathy Reichs have followed EP Barry Josephson in filing a lawsuit against FOX claiming they have been shortchanged “tens of millions of dollars,” per THR:
In the new complaint filed Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court and obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, the trio claim Fox has underpaid them through accounting tricks and “vertical integration,” in which a company’s production division licenses a show at an artificially discounted rate to the company’s affiliated distribution channel. They also claim Fox fraudulently accounted for revenue, employed strong-arm tactics to lower license fees to the point that the series never showed a profit, and withheld key documents that would help them better ascertain the extent to which they are owed money.
Wanda Watkins says
I only read the books and the series is NOTHING like the books.
My brother loves the show but he doesn’t read not to say he can’t he just is not a reader.

Michael Reilly says
Do you work for FOX by any chance?
Nancy Johnson says
I just LOVE Bones. Have watched it from day 1. If Fox is stupid enough to cancel it, it will PROVE Fox IS guilty of bilking their employees. No wonder they love animated stuff.
Michael Reilly says
This is one of the best shows on the network , who is running things there ? If this could happen to Bones I wouldn’t feel so great if I worked on one of the other FOX shows
