Bones Fun Facts Set #4 (From Fox.com)

More fun facts! 



1. We bring everything to location. Power, food, tents, restrooms, trash bins, security, police officers. We set up a base camp for ourselves, akin to a small village.


2. We knew we had a hit show when we had to change the "Bones" name on our directional signs for our crew because they started to disappear.


3. Because "Bones" is set in Washington D.C. but filmed in Los Angeles, one of our main challenges is to avoid seeing palm trees or any other signs of being in Southern California.


4. We sometimes get access to places closed to the general public, such as water treatment plants, electrical generating stations, and other highly secure areas.


5. While meant to be disposed of after one use, we try to use the same latex gloves several times so as to minimize the impact to the environment. (We are not as concerned with the "contamination" aspects as some other professions)


6. Every time David Boreanaz is on camera he has craps dice, a brass Zippo lighter and a St. Christopher's medal in his pants pockets. (Unless he's not wearing anything with pants pockets in a particular scene).


7. Though Zack was the youngest member of the team, Eric Milligan is actually older than Emily, TJ, and Michaela.


8. Chad Lowe and David Boreanaz are the only two people to both direct and act on the show.


9. Three Deschanels have worked on the show, Emily, Zooey and Caleb. Two Boreanazes have, David and his father (cameo appearance), and two Hansons have, Hart and his father Paul (cameo appearance).


10. Over forty years ago, Ryan O'Neal (Max Keenan on BONES) worked on "Peyton Place," which shot on Stage 9 at the Fox studios, where we now shoot the FBI set.
