Emily and Raj on The Big Bang Theory

Laura Spencer Becomes A Big Bang Theory Series Regular

Laura Spencer joined The Big Bang Theory in Season 7 as Raj Koothrappali’s latest girlfriend, Emily Sweeney. In Season 9, we’ll be seeing a lot more of her now that she’s been promoted to a regular on the series. Like comic book store owner Stuart, she won’t appear in every episode but will be credited with the main cast when she does appear.

On Bones, Laura Spencer plays squintern Jessica Warren who first appeared at the end of Season 9 in Episode 23 The Drama in the Queen. Does this mean Bones will be killing off another squint? Not this time! Laura reports Jessica Warren is still alive and well on Bones.

Bones Executive Producer, Stephen Nathan, told TVLine Ignazio Serricchio will have a recurring role as the new squintern at the Jeffersonian.

Emily Deschanel presents at the 2014 People’s Choice Awards

The 2014 People’s Choice Awards were held at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles, CA on January 8, 2014 hosted by Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs from 2 Broke Girls.

Emily Deschanel arrived on the red carpet wearing an art deco pattern black and white Max Azria dress accented by Miss Delicious shoes, House of Lavande earrings, Swarovski ring, and carrying an Edie Parker clutch. This was her first time attending the People’s Choice Awards.

Red carpet host Timm Gunn challenged her to correctly demonstrate where the cut-out paper bones on his tray would appear on his body. She passed with flying colors. Looks like she’s picked up a trick or two from her nine years starring as a forensic anthropologist on Bones.

Emily Deschanel and Michael Weatherly (NCIS), “who fight crime, drink wine and look so fine,” presented the award for “Favorite Actress in a New TV Series” to Sarah Michelle Gellar for her role on The Crazy Ones.

This isn’t the first time Bones and Sarah Michelle Gellar have crossed paths. David Boreanaz played Angel on Buffy the Vampire Slayer long before putting on his FBI uniform. In 2013, Sarah’s husband, Freddie Prinze Jr., appeared as CIA Agent Danny Beck on the Bones episode “The Secrets in the Proposal”.

Bones was nominated for “Favorite Crime Drama” but lost to Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic in Castle.
