‘Bones’ season 9, episode 7 will air on a Monday; Fox delays move (and also ‘Raising Hope’)
Now that we are done drying our eyes after what was a very emotional and beautiful wedding ceremony between Booth and Brennan on “Bones” season 9, we suspected that the series would move to it’s new Friday night timeslot. SO is that what’s happening?
After long suggesting that the show was going to be shifting over to a timeslot on Fridays after the World Series came to a close, Fox decided instead to keep the show in the same spot that it is currently in for at least a little while longer. “Bones” will return with its 7th episode of the season on November 4, and will then air again on the 11th. The show will move to Fridays starting on the 15th, and will hopefully keep most of its viewership in the process. Remember, after all, that this is not an easy timeslot to succeed in given that so many people choose to go out on the town rather then sitting around at home and watching TV. This challenge will also be transferred over to “Raising Hope,” which will air after “Bones” starting that same Friday with back-to-back episodes. Yes, this gives the impression that Fox only brought the show back to bury it for syndication, but we actually think it will do just as well here as some of their comedies are doing on Tuesday nights.
On a different note, Fox has decided to give their new series “Almost Human” a two-night premiere starting on Sunday, November 17, when it will receive a nice benefit courtesy of NFL football. Following that, it will shift into its Monday timeslot and be paired with “Sleepy Hollow,” which right now is a pretty good show to be paired with. While we don’t know if this series has the same edge that Fox needs right now, it’s at least something sci-fi to make up for there being pretty much nothing else in the genre on network TV right now that is particular amazing. (We don’t consider “Arrow” sci-fi more so than just action.)
What do you want to see on “Bones” the rest of the season? Be sure to share below, and click here to read our full take on that emotional, fun wedding episode that probably brought back many memories of the show’s early days.

Tought for sure with return of semi-regulars for the wedding and the messagein the nuptials that this was the last episode. It really felt like it was the end and they lived happily ever after. Glad to hear they will be returning!

I know it totally felt like a finale, I was so nervous I had to search to make sure they were coming back.
As for the question “what would you like to see this season?” I would love for them to go back to that whole stand alone episode thing like from the beginning, you know where there’s a murder they investigate & solve, no more several episode arches like w/ Pilant (don’t know if I spelled that right.
Also I would like to see Saroyan & Arastoo get engaged or elope or something, even just cohabitate, take their relationship to another level, I LOVE them together!
