In movies, our heroes get together at the end. It's left to the audience's imaginations what happens next. On TV, your left with two characters in a whole new relationship than the one you've come to love and appreciate.

We did finally let Booth and Brennan kiss in that Christmas episode I mentioned before. And Emily and David played the hell out of it. All the feelings, the denial, the suppressed attraction, it was all right there in their eyes. But we left it unrequited, where it belonged. To paraphrase Hart, until their current relationship starts boring people, why mess with it? But he always smiles when he says it. So you never know. At any moment, we could surprise you.

What do the ''Bones'' fans mean to you? Do you have had any fan encounters?

Bones has the best fans I've ever been around. They tend to be smart and funny. It's a lot of fun to know that what you write is appreciated by audiences. Their praise for our actors and their characters is praise for us, since we put the words in their mouths and craft the mysteries their solving.

What has been your favorite scene so far with the series?

Picking one would be impossible. I really love our scenes between Booth, Brennan and Dr. Sweets (played by John Francis Daly) the therapist. Same with last year's scenes with Dr. Wyatt (the incomparable Stephen Fry). Also, our Squints really make the medical banter sing on a regular basis.

Do you have anyone you would like to see guest star on ''Bones''?

Sure, Daniel Day Lewis, Javier Bardem, Laura Linney, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Meryl Streep, shall I go on? But if they're unavailable, we'd love to have Stephen Fry back when his schedule allows.
