Long break due to baseball

Unfortunately, due to the World Series, there won’t be any new Bones episodes until November 12th. There is a small chance of an episode on November 5th, but don’t hold your breath. More about this can be found in the article below.

Question: I am a huge fan of Bones and I was wondering if you could confirm that after the October 15 episode there will not be any new episodes until November 12? I was wondering if you might know why such a long break? I love this show and I am really excited about this season and I am curious the reason.—Nikie

Matt Roush: Hello, post-season baseball. It’s that simple and that frustrating to a show’s continuity. Ever since Fox became the World Series network, it has had to deal with the fact that many of its shows have to sit out several weeks just when the momentum is getting going. (This is one major reason why a show like 24 doesn’t premiere until January.) According to a contact at Fox, depending on how the post-season games play out, there may be an episode of Bones on Nov. 5, but it may not be an original, since it can’t be scheduled and promoted until everyone knows how many games are going to be played.

    From FOX: If WORLD SERIES Game #7 (SP-1017) is necessary, the baseball game will air [instead of BONES and FRINGE on November 5th, otherwise the two will air].
