‘Bones’ season 11, episode 5: Emily Deschanel, David Boreanaz fall into ‘Sleepy Hollow’ territory

Next week, one of the most-anticipated TV events of the year is going arrive courtesy of the “Bones” – “Sleepy Hollow” crossover event. It’s going to be mysterious, weird, wacky, and hopefully funny. It will celebrate Halloween, and also cultivate a very interesting mystery. We know that there is plenty of skepticism out there and fear that this could be both shows jumping the shark. For now, though, we are glad to see the show taking this sort of risk. Neither show has huge ratings, so why not give something like this a chance?

Below, you can see the first full promo for at least the “Bones” part of the crossover airing next week, and you can also see the synopsis to go along with it:

“It’s Halloween time at The Jeffersonian, as the team gets a surprise visit from newly minted FBI Agent Abbie Mills (guest star Nicole Beharie) and Ichabod Crane (guest star Tom Mison), who have traveled from Sleepy Hollow to claim a headless body already under investigation by Brennan and her team. The new foursome must figure out how to work together to discover who the 200-year-old headless corpse is, and how it is linked to a contemporary murder victim. Meanwhile, Booth and Brennan come up with the ultimate Halloween pranks to play on each other in the special.”

The best part of the entire promo may be Ichabod making a “Star Trek” reference. It’s certainly best to file that one under “things we never expected we would see on this show.”
