After a midseason hiatus, Fox’s BONES is back for the second half of its tenth season on Thursdays at 8 PM. The long-lived series celebrated its 200^th episode – which aired right before winter break – by departing from its usual storylines about forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) and her crime-solving partner/husband, FBI Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) and giving the regular cast roles in a playful one-hour ‘50s Hitchcock-style murder mystery.

Michaela Conlin, who customarily plays artist and computer genius Angela Montenegro, portrayed an LAPD stenographer in “The 200^th in the 10^th.” She talks about the change of pace segment, as well as her feelings about the departure of series regular John Francis Daley (Dr. Lance Sweets), who left to direct a feature film.

AX: How did you enjoy doing “The 200^th in the 10^th”?

MICHAELA CONLIN: It was so fun to shoot, it was so fun to watch. It was great. David did a wonderful job, I thought. The music was really wonderful, everyone in the cast just did a beautiful job.

AX: How did you like working in the Fifties costumes and high heels?

CONLIN: So much fun. The waist cincher was kind of tricky after a two-week shoot, but it was so fun to see how great everybody looked and I was really just so proud of all of the cast and the crew. It was a really big moment for us. It was fun.

AX: How did you feel about John Francis Daley leaving and John Boyd coming in as new FBI Agent Aubrey?

CONLIN: Well, it was really, really sad to have John Francis Daley leave, of course. He’s just a brilliant actor and was a member of this dysfunctional family that we have, so it was super-sad, but he’s doing wonderful things and John Boyd has been a great addition. He’s such a lovely person and brings such a different energy to the role. He’s really been great.

AX: Favorite episode or scene this season?

CONLIN: This season? The two-hundredth, for sure.

AX: Any other projects we should know about?

CONLIN: Yeah. I did a movie for Relativity called THE DISAPPOINTMENTS ROOM with Kate Beckinsale that’s coming out in September. It’s sort of a psychological horror movie. I think that’s what they’re calling it.

AX: Was that a good break for you, in terms of playing a different sort of character from Angela?

CONLIN: It was. It was really fun to play something different. It’s a small part, but D.J. Caruso directed it, and it was really fun to be a part of it.

AX: And what would you most like people to know about BONES right now?

CONLIN: Keep watching.
