Fox Summer TCA All Star Party

Angela and Hodgins became one of my favorite TV couples from the moment we saw the first hints of flirtation between them on Bones. So when Michaela Conlin braved the rainy New York City streets last week to pop into the EW.com offices (sans entourage!), I was thrilled to ask her all the character-related questions that have been plaguing my little fan brain since we saw the pair’s surprise wedding. The best part? She didn’t look at me like I was crazy. In fact, she was totally willing to geek out right along with me and speak about her character with thoughtfulness and excitement. Read on for her take on the couple’s surprise nuptials and what the future holds for our match made in squinty heaven.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Did you like how Hodgins and Angela’s wedding played out?
MICHAELA CONLIN: I did like how it played out. I was very surprised by it. I thought for the longest time it’d be Sweets and Daisy getting married. That was a big shocker. I think I heard rumblings of it only one or two episodes prior to getting the script. So it was kept pretty under wraps for a while, which is good. Normally, we have more of an idea of what may or may not happen. But that was a true surprise, which I liked. It was really fun to shoot. My father called and told me, ‘Why didn’t you tell me that you were going to get married?’ And I was like ‘Well, I wanted you to be surprised.’ There are very few real surprises left in life so I figured [shrugs]. I’m really excited about it and to see what they’re going to do with us next season. Angela isn’t really one to settle down. But I know Hart [Hanson, creator of Bones] has a lot in store for that challenge being that they’re so different. Hopefully Angela won’t feel like he’s a ball and chain. [Laughs] No, I’m just kidding. I think she’s always been just so in love with him. I think it’s going to be a fun season.

I don’t think she would have said ‘yes’ if she didn’t. She’s not the type.
No. I know. She’s had enough time to think about it.

Did you like the ceremony? Did you think it matched who they are as a couple?
Yea. That’s a good question. I hadn’t thought about that, but yea I do. I think underneath all the ex-husbands, ex-girlfriends, engagements, separations, they really just like being around each other and really get each other. I think that was enough for her.

Did you feel cheated at all because you didn’t get to wear a big wedding dress again?
No, I didn’t. Actually, I’m glad we did that because I already did that. She already walked down the aisle at the end of season 2. I was glad that we didn’t try to top that and make it something else. I was glad they did it the way that they did.

So what can we expect from them now?
I don’t think it will be too typical with them. I know that. I think it will be a challenge, definitely, but also happy…hopefully. [Laughs] But I do think it’s going to have its ups and downs. I know she loves him, but I don’t know. We’ll see how they fare. I have faith in them. I think they’re going to do fine.

Hart referred to Angela and Hodgins’ relationship as the show’s “steam valve” recently, the thing that releases a little bit of that tension created by the Bones/Booth relationship. Do you think it’s good to have something to satisfy the fans’ need for a happy ending?
I do. Hodgins and Angela have been together for a while now; I think it’s important for the series. I think it’s important to see a couple that’s functional and is really releasing some steam — if you want to put it that way. But I think the Brennan and Booth relationship had a big release in the 100th episode. I think they played that out well, showing the two of them being together prior to the series. So we’ll see what happens. But yes, I enjoy being the steam valve.

Do we find out in the last episode whether or not Brennan has told Angela about what happened in episode 100?
No. That’s a good question. We don’t address any of that…I think. Not that you’ve seen, I should say. From up to the point that you’ve seen, no. But they will. They will be soon. They tell each other everything. I think they always know what’s going on with the other. And I think Angela knows on some level, too.

With the wedding between my two favourite characters on Bones, I was thinking about this time last year when I was getting married and all the planning that had to be done, where in my area to get married, what to wear and what reception catering I should have. I kind of miss all that planning now it is over and done with.

Hold the phone, you guys. Last night’s episode of Bones totally caught me off guard. Immersing myself in spoiler alerts all day normally takes the edge off, as I haven’t been surprised by a television show since I saw Fringe’s Peter Bishop sparkle and shine earlier this season. But script author Kathy Reichs—the real-life producer, novelist, professor, forensic anthropologist, and person on whom Dr. Temperance Brennan was based—definitely pulled a fast one on me when she decided to have Hodgins (T.J. Thyne) and Angela (Michaela Conlin) get married—and in jail! I’m definitely all aboard the Hodgins-Angela ‘ship. But marriage? Really? Wasn’t it technically the result of egregious product placement?

The relationship between these two nerdy lovebirds has been more enjoyable to watch this season than the one between Brennan (Emily Deschanel) and Booth (David Boreanaz) because Hodgins and Angela are so dang open and honest about their feelings. It’s so refreshingly mature! Plus, Thyne and Conlin have terrific chemistry and clearly they’ve worked hard over the last five seasons to develop a real connection between the two characters. The tension between Hodgins and Angela has been particularly noticeable over the last few episodes since Angela’s pregnancy scare. As soon as they landed behind bars together, it was painfully obvious that they would reconnect. It was completely surprising, however, that they decided to get hitched.

I applaud the spontaneity and unexpectedness of the whole thing, especially because the informality of it didn’t necessarily upstage Sweets’s (John Francis Daley) proposal to Daisy (Carla Gallo) last month in “The Bones on the Blue Line.” I also think that Hodgins and Angela’s marriage will help Brennan and Booth make significant strides in their relationship (once they forgive the new couple for not inviting them to the wedding, of course). But I still can’t help but think that a tiny bit of this show’s magic is gone. Where will the Angela-Hodgins drama come from now? A real pregnancy?

T. J. Thyne has revealed that he was thrilled his Bones character Jack Hodgins got married.

In the latest episode of the show, Hodgins tied the knot with Angela (Michaela Conlin) in jail.

“I’m so excited,” Thyne told Zap2It. “It was a really great storyline.

“For Michaela and I it was a blast also because we didn’t get to work with each other as much as we were working with each other [before] so we were both kind of missing that interaction. But it’s been really fun to kind of bring it back together and we had a blast on that.”

Thyne added that he is thrilled with the storyline because he has always wanted Hodgins and Conlin to marry.

“I’m stoked,” he said. “I’m really excited for Jack. It was my one thing since the show started – [it] was, ‘I hope he gets to end up with Angela in the end’.”

Bones continues Thursdays at 8pm on Fox in the US and Thursdays at 10pm on Sky1 in the UK.
