Bones ran for 12 seasons on Fox, and it was one of the best crime dramas ever created. The mix of humor, romance, and suspense made it enjoyable to watch, week after week.
Part of the show's appeal was that you could tell just how much the actors loved being together. In fact, another actress was already set to play Temperance Brennan, but when creator Hart Hanson saw how Emily Deschanel interacted with David Boreanaz (Booth), he immediately changed his mind.
When a show runs for 12 seasons, you can't help but wonder how much money the actors raked in.
1. Eric Millegan
Dr. Zack Addy may have only appeared in three seasons of Bones, but he was one of the most beloved characters. Millegan left the show after his character was sent to an insane asylum for being part of a murderous cult. He's had a few TV and film roles, as well as Broadway success.
NET WORTH: $750,000
2. Tamara Taylor
Did you know that Dr. Camille Saroyan was supposed to be killed off the show in season 2? Taylor's role was intended as a guest spot, and Saroyan was supposed to die when she was poisoned in the second season. However, fans loved the Canadian actress so much, the producers turned her role into a main character. She stayed on the show until the series ended.
NET WORTH: $4 million
3. T.J. Thyne
The sarcastic, conspiracy-driven, and charming Dr. Jack Hodgins was a main character on Bones since the beginning. Up until the seventh season, he, along with other co-stars Tamara Taylor, John Francis Daley, and Michaela Conlin, were making around $30,000 per episode. They were given a pay bump for the seventh season, which saw them bring in around $60,000 per episode!
NET WORTH: $10 million
4. Michaela Conlin
Angela Montenegro was the biggest fan of Booth and Brennan's relationship, and that's probably why the audience connected with her so well. She was the voice of reason in a room full of scientists and a mainstay on the show for all 12 seasons. She had small roles in other shows and films, but Bones is Conlin's biggest hit.
