Immediate response: Oooooooooo!

That's so COOL! I hope he doesn't have to sing Mandy.

Tonya J | November 27, 03:07 CET

Seems like she's everywhere this season. Boston Legal, Bones, Pushing Daisies. Good to see her doing well :)

Jobo | November 27, 03:09 CET

I also wouldn't be surprised if she did CSI: Las Vegas.

I love seeing our Whedony actors on other shows, like Xander on Criminal Minds last week, and Oz running a comic book store in Heroes last night. It always liven things up for me!

embers | November 27, 04:35 CET

Gina looked great

rivergirl | November 27, 05:09 CET

And, oddly, there was someone insulting Booth in Chinese.

The One True b!X | November 27, 05:28 CET

Why are insults invariably the first thing some people tend to learn in a foreign language? But that was very funny.

Tonya J | November 27, 05:33 CET

My first reaction was to literally LOL when the kids started talking in Chinese. Then when the boy said his father thought China would rule the world in the future, I said, "If his father turns out to be played by Joss I'll scream."

Which....considering I live alone...yeah. Sad.

ShadowQuest | November 27, 06:00 CET

Hehehe. Gina was great. Someone give her a new TV show.

BrownCoat_Tabz | November 27, 06:15 CET

FWIW: David Boreanaz, Gina Torres, and cursing in Chinese. All very WHEDONesque. And yet, no Dollhouse ad during Bones.

Aww, she was a pilot. Wash must be proud.

I guess they're Firefly fans, like Zack.

hacksaway | November 27, 07:15 CET

This was a fun episode. Gina was great, as usual!

Hjermsted | November 27, 07:49 CET

Awesome, episode. Very whedonesque, sad to know that they didn't even run a single promo for Dollhouse.

I changed the link to something a bit more fullsome (mind hit a really bad blank there).

So we've had the Mayor, Hamilton and now Jasmine? Very cool. I will hold out for Spike and Darla to get a look in on the show.

Simon | November 27, 08:28 CET

The Mayor was on Bones??? When???

shicks | November 27, 13:07 CET

Season one. It was really cool to see David and Harry on screen together.

Simon | November 27, 13:27 CET

It was a great surprise and pleasure to find out Torres was on the show tonight. I had a second take! The swearing in Mandarin was a very nice touch.

RebelAt | November 27, 14:04 CET

I couldn't get past the idea that he was talking to his granddaughter :)

redeem147 | November 27, 15:52 CET

It was really cool to see Gina on Bones!
She was beautiful on it!
And very Whedonesque indeed!

maxsummers | November 27, 16:02 CET

hacksaway - there are indeed Firefly/Joss fans over at Bones. Check out the Whedonesque thread about it http://whedonesque.com/comments/8964

Time to move up to the "A" list. Would love to see SMG do a guest bit, maybe as an old love interest? Or is that too obvious?

kmb99 | November 27, 18:25 CET

Wow, kmb99, I love that suggestion! You could hardly pick a type more different from Dr. Brennan. Bones is tall brunette and a brainiac, and she might well be intimidated by a cute and tiny vivacious blonde! If they can't get SMG to do it then maybe Julie Benz would be available! LOL

embers | November 27, 18:34 CET

It made my pretty bad day a little brighter. It was a nice surprise.

Nolan | November 27, 18:45 CET

Dear Santa Claus could you have Alyson Hannigan guesting on Bones?
Yeah I know her being pregnant, being a major character in another show... on another network is doing it hard to grant my wish but it was easy I wouldn't asked it to Santa Claus. :)

rua1412 | November 28, 00:14 CET

One of those swears sounds exactly like one they used on firefly.... lemme check

It sounded like this:
BUN tyen-shung duh ee-DWAY-RO

Yup... it was used in trash. hee.

Yes, the long translation of the insult sounded very Fireflyesque to me. I loved seeing Gina and David together again.
