back to bones

Hey, this isn't House.

 

Well at least you can take your serial killer apprentice character and go off to other shows if they don't take you back permanently...

Maybe do a guest spot on Criminal Minds.

 

....or housewives of PDX.

j/k, Eric, sorry.

 

Road Trip!

 

Congrats. Is this a one-off, or are you going to be in future episodes? If so, will you be re-relocating back to LA?

 

Sweet, so when will you start working and posting less?

 

My sister has been doing some extra work on the show. I'll tell her to keep an eye out for you.

 

That's awesome man. When you start filming?

 

Sweet brah

 

Congrats, Eric!

If you need any NBA players for cameo roles, I know a few who are just sitting on the bench in Portland . . .

 

good stuff congrats, Eric!

 

They are only giving you 1 episode? Big deal!! You should have negotiated several episodes in exchange for the appearance on the 100th show reunion.

You said that the Sonic jersey was in, then later deleted from a show. Who made that decision and what was the process?

I have a question, Eric. Who writes scripts on TV shows? It used to be a tiny group of ideologically approved writers. If a freelancer mailed in a script, it was returned unopened so that he wouldn't sue if they happened to ever have similarities in a real show. Is it still that way?

 

Thanks for the congrats, guys. I believe that Zach is only seen in the flashback which takes up most of the episode. I haven't seen a script yet though.

 

It's just one episode. I go to LA at the end of next week. It takes 9 working days to shoot the show (weekends are off) and then I may stay in LA a few weeks more to try to get another series. It depends on what's out there. We'll see.

 

That's cool. Tell her to say hello if we're in the same scene.

 

As for the Sonics jersey, we talked about it, put the costume designer in touch with the NBA, and then we just never got around to it and the creator never made it a priority.

As for your second question, the creator, executive producer, and showrunner of the show is Hart Hanson. He does pretty much everything. While there are a team of writers, he is the final word on all scripts. Most of the scripts are written by him. Though the other writers do write and get credit for individual episodes, he writes the final draft. On top of writing the scripts, he basically runs the entire operation. He gets notes, though, from both the studio (20th Century Fox) and the network (FOX) and he has to deal with that. He's not the emperor. The studio and network can force his hand on some issues but he's very good at fighting that and getting his way for the most part. He and I are very good friends and he was a big part of my recovery when I was dealing with bipolar disorder.

Did I already post these articles? He is quoted heavily in them.

Thanks for the answers. I'd love to figure out the power structure more. Roy Rogers had 3 female leads in his movies--Dale Evans, Gale Storm, and my aunt.

 

Congrats!

 

Caongrats KS/Eric!

Good to have you young people working and paying my SS again. I encourage all my grand kids to keep working as well.
Ha.

Good to see you get back to the show even for the one time. You may get real popular again. Let us know when it will air.

And don't let these idiots give you a bad time about your Bi-polar condition. I have worked with a lot who have the same condition and it is/can be debilitating to many. Good to see you work through and around the condition. That makes getting the gig an even greater accomplishment.
