112. The Superhero in the Alley (with Elizabeth Benjamin)

Boneheads with Emily Deschanel and Carla Gallo

Brennan and Booth are here to save the day (as always) in this comic-book-themed episode about a young, nerdy “superhero” who died protecting others. Emily has plenty of cold goss, including why she was in tears while filming, and how Aaron Paul’s guest appearance as a morose comic store owner/artist with swoopy bangs might have launched his career. Plus, Carla recounts working with Aaron years later on a huge blockbuster. Later on, this episode’s writer, Elizabeth Benjamin, calls in from her writers room during lunch break to give her insights on how they created such a fully realized world for the comics-obsessed teens at the center of the story.

Please note: Emily and Carla recorded this episode before the Los Angeles wildfires began. You'll hear them talk about a recent audition which happened a few weeks ago. Emily and Carla are safe and their hearts are with the rest of their LA community.
