Given that the last time around Bones‘ two-year renewal closed hours before Fox’s upfront presentation after long and sometimes contentious license-fee negotiations, this time the two sides seem ahead of schedule with a pickup two weeks before the upfronts. “Season 7 is GO for Bones,” star David Boreanaz tweeted tonight. Fox, Bones producer 20th TV and the show’s Twitter-fanatic creator/executive producer Hart Hanson have yet to weigh in but word is the studio and the networks came to an agreement shortly before Boreanaz tweeted the news and are expected to make an announcement in the morning. While the renewal was never in doubt since Bones is Fox’s second-highest-rated drama series behind House, a single-year renewal is somewhat surprising but I hear a second consecutive two-year pickup was never on the table. And Fox still has a House renewal to close.

But I pray they don’t pick up the spinoff. It was gawd awful!
You are kidding right? Finder was classic TV. loved it and happy to know that Bones will be back and cross fingers for Hart’s new show, good, solid TV!
Let me play out a pessimistic conspiracy theory here for just a moment; I hope I’m completely wrong, though. Maybe Fox thinks that the ratings might fall far enough after Booth and Bones hook up in the season finale (as rumored,) and into next season, that it will only be able warrant just one more season. This might also add credence to the “The Finder” back-door pilot having potential place next season, too; and for the record, I kind of liked that episode. Anyway, just a thought…
I agree with newsgal. Finder was far, far from gawd awful. I enjoyed it as well and I hope to see more.
