After 12 seasons of romance, murders, and hard hard science, the doors are about to close on the Jeffersonian forensics department. (Or be blown up. Whatever.) Whether you’ve loved Bones from the beginning like Kim or crammed hundreds of episodes into a whirlwind binge like me, you’re probably as sad as we are to see this cast of characters go. We’re SO sad, in fact, that we’re honoring Booth, Brennan, and the rest of their family with a dedicated Bones WEEK. Let’s kick it off now with the Bones Yearbook, a concept we’re stealing from our own New Who Tenth Anniversary post. Because it’s just good fun to imagine that, in some universe, everyone from Max right on down to the Squinterns made up one wacky, BRILLIANT group of seniors. So here it is: the Bones graduating class of 2017….
