BuddyTV was lucky enough to get to interview Emily Deschanel and ask her about her role on Bones. She talked about how her chemistry with David Boreanaz has evolved, working with her father who directed an episode of Bones, and dressing up like Wonder Woman for an upcoming episode. (That will be so cool!) Here’s an excerpt from the interview:
And the show mixes a lot of, it’ll do comedy and it’ll do drama as well. Do you prefer doing one or the other?
I love doing a show where I can go back and forth between drama and comedy. I think that having the comedy makes the drama better, and richer, and stronger. I think vice versa, having the drama makes the comedy funnier. I think when something’s too one-sided or one-note, or it’s only dramatic, it becomes kind of sappy or cheesy. And when it’s funny all the time, it seems like it’s trying too hard.
And how are you most different and most similar from your character?
I think I’m most similar with my character in the way that we can get wrapped up in our work, and kind of forget our personal lives. I can relate to my character in a lot of different ways. I’ve been in situations where I’ve put up walls in front of myself, like she has. I think she’s more extreme than I am, but there’s a lot of things that are not like my character. I hope I’m socially a little more at ease with people than she is.
