Character overview Notes Main characters The following characters have been featured in the opening credits of the program. Temperance "Bones" Brennan Portrayed by Emily DeschanelDr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan (seasons 1–12) works as a forensic anthropologist at the Jeffersonian Institute in Washington, D.C. and is also a best-selling novelist. She is nicknamed "Bones" by FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth. Brennan and Booth work together on Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) cases concerning recently found human remains. Although she is an expert in her field, Brennan is socially awkward and has limited knowledge about pop culture. Her birth name was Joy Keenan, while her brother's birth name was Kyle Keenan; their names were changed by their parents in an effort to protect them from enemies from their past. Brennan's parents left her and her older brother, known as Russ, when she was fifteen. She also thinks herself to be extremely rational. She is not usually (barring a few episodes, such as the "Doctor in the Photo") the one to get the most emotionally attached to the cases and/or the people involved. She and Booth became a couple and have a daughter, Christine, and are later married. In the season 10 episode "The Eye in the Sky", she is revealed to be pregnant again. At the end of season 10, she and Booth quit the team, planning to move away. In the first episode of Season 11, six months have passed and Brennan has given birth to a son named Hank Booth II, after Seeley Booth's grandfather. Seeley Booth Portrayed by David BoreanazFBI Special Agent Seeley Booth (seasons 1–12) is the official liaison to the Jeffersonian. A decorated former Army sniper, he frequently consults with Dr. Brennan and her team in his investigations, where his warmth serves as a counter to Dr. Brennan's hard, objective and analytical approach. Booth has, however, shown little hesitation when required to risk his life for his friends, but expresses some reluctance in later seasons; when he's sent overseas in season 10, he states that he's not going to do so again, as he's worried about being killed in combat and leaving his son Parker without a father. At the end of Season 4, it is revealed Booth has a brain tumor causing him to hallucinate. In season 5, Booth admits to Dr. Saroyan that he is in love with Brennan. It is also revealed that he is a direct descendant of presidential assassin John Wilkes Booth, a fact that upsets him greatly. In the season 6 finale it is revealed that Dr. Brennan was expecting Booth's child after they had spent the night together when both were suffering from the death of Vincent Nigel-Murray and slept together. Their daughter Christine was born in Season 7 and the couple marry in Season 9. Later in season 9, after his fighting against a corrupt government group, three corrupt FBI agents are sent to kill him as a warning to the others to stop the investigation. After that fails, he is framed, arrested and imprisoned for murdering the three agents, who were supposedly just there to serve a warrant for his arrest. In the opening episode of Season 10, Dr. Brennan effects his release, but the nightmare continues to escalate, leading to the death of their co-worker Sweets. Following the arrest of the conspirators, Booth remains traumatized and blames himself for Sweets' death. Later in season 10, he rekindled his old gambling habits to cope with his pain, which results in him being kicked out of his home by Brennan. After regaining her trust, he reevaluates his choices and decides that it would be best for his family if he retired from the FBI. He leaves the team along with Brennan, planning to pursue prior job offers. When Season 11 begins it is revealed that Booth now has a son named Hank Booth II, after his grandfather. Angela Montenegro Portrayed by Michaela ConlinAngela Montenegro (seasons 1–12) works as a forensic artist at the Jeffersonian Institute and is Brennan's best friend. She changed her name in her late teens, but only one girl, her double-ex, Roxie knows her real name. Angela is the squint squad's team specialist in craniofacial reconstruction and can generate holograms using her three-dimensional graphics program (The Angelatron) to simulate various scenarios of a crime. She is open, friendly and caring, and constantly tries to draw Dr. Brennan out of the lab. She is one of the few Squints known to get emotionally attached to cases, and Brennan later states that when she started working at the Jeffersonian, Angela had to party and have sex all the time to deal with the horror of her job. In the episode "The Man in the Fallout Shelter", it was revealed Angela's father is Billy Gibbons, a member of the band ZZ Top. Her middle name is supposedly "Pearly Gates", which is also the name of Billy Gibbons' 1959 Les Paul guitar. In season five, she marries Dr. Jack Hodgins while in jail for an outstanding warrant. During the ceremony, she whispers her real name to the justice of the peace, though it is never revealed to the viewers. In season 6, we learn that she is pregnant with her first child, a son, Michael Staccato Vincent Hodgins, who was born during the season finale. Following the death of Sweets and Booth's arrest, Angela begins to get sick of the horror of her and her husband's jobs and begins thinking about quitting her job for good and moving her family to Paris. Although they do buy a house there, she ultimately decides to stay after Brennan and Booth leave the team. In "The Life in the Light" it was revealed that her actual name, as displayed on her passport, is Pooky (or Pookie) Noodlin. She never changed it because her father implored her not to, as the name was very important to him. Jack Hodgins Portrayed by T. J. ThyneDr Jack Hodgins (seasons 1–12) is an entomologist, mineralogist and botanist, but conspiracy theories are his hobby. He is one of the more "normal" people in the group and tries to help teach Zack how to be socially competent.
