bonesAs hinted earlier, two popular US shows are returning to Seven’s Sunday nights.

Bones is back at 8:30pm Sunday October 18th with the first episode of the fifth season, “Harbingers in a Fountain,” which aired in the US in mid-September. It guest stars Cyndi Lauper.

Angela’s psychic predicts that there are multiple bodies buried under a fountain; the lead pans out, and Booth and Brennan find the remains of eleven bodies. Meanwhile Sweets has certified Booth mentally fit to return to duty after his brain surgery, but he is still experiencing some side effects.

Castle, will follow at 9:30pm with “Deep in Death.” This also aired in September in the US.

Castle considers how to fix his relationship with Beckett, while struggling to finish his soon-to-be- published novel, Heat Wave. But circumstances force the pair back together to investigate the mysterious murder of a man found dead, tangled in the limbs of a tree.

It guest stars TV writer / producer Stephen J. Cannell.

  1. It makes sense for Aust TV networks to fast track after a few episodes in the US as at this time of year the US has too many holidays and breaks for sporting events, I think. So rather than have a stupid repeat one week when the US decides not to air something, it can be filled with a show yet to air in Aust.

  2. There’ve been ads running for the last couple of days saying ‘coming soon’ so i was getting excitied!
    This is great news! Seven now has a watchable lineup from 6pm thru to 11.30pm
    Las Vegas is at 10.30 or….?

  3. Jerome – I’m sure I speak for most fans when I say that we frankly don’t care about promotion over summer. The movies suck. And I’m pretty sure there’ll be some press about Bones regarding a certain 80’s singer…

    *is on a high*

  4. @Jerome – it’s not a waste for those who want to see the shows, so does the US waste all the shows it puts on in September every year?

    Yes I agree they should promote both more and maybe they should have been back for the last 2-3 weeks so they air just one week after the US.

  5. what i dont get is why networks dont fast track shows like this, hasn’t seven had movies on for the last 4 weeks or at least 3 weeks?, they could of shown them then, i guess if eps have a week of in america we will catch up a bit.

  6. Good that Seven is kinda fast tracking both these shows, until the end of the year with luck. but being 4-5 eps by the time it airs I guess a number will be held over the summer break for 2010. But it’s better than holding the whole season until then.

    BTW Bones has a great return after IMO a less than great season final.

  7. dissapointed. 7 should hold these off till next year where it can get a proper promotion suring the summer and fill the sundays for a large part of the year. the movies are doing fine.

    it’s just wasting 6 episodes of both shows.
