Hannah episodes

Can someone confirm for me whether anyone with the show has actually said at least 5 or 6 or is this reporters saying this? The same reporters that said she'd be in the premiere and she wasn't.

I only remember seeing anyone from the show saying its open ended.

They have a contractual number with the actress but none of the reporters have said what it is and they may not know. And, if they wanted to, the number of episodes could be spread out all season simply by talking about Hannah but not actually showing her as seems to be the case for episode 4. That said, I don't think they will do it because I'm betting the ratings start to dip when viewers not on the blog radar figure out the direction the show is going over the next 2-3 weeks. The chemistry was zero in the premiere and from the clips it doesn't look to be getting any better. I know, I know, I haven't actually seen the episodes but that opener was exactly what I expected, and that isn't a good thing.

No one from the show has ever confirmed how many episodes KW's contract is for, Reporters said in the summer it was 5 episodes, but when pressed HH and SN will not confirm anything. HH has outright said on twitter it's too much of a spoiler to say how long Hannah will be around.

I'm not sure how it can be a spoiler unless they plan to keep her indefinitely. Besides usual contracts are for X episodes with options for more so any number he gives could change two minutes later and with him, it probably will.

I think it would be a spoiler. If hart told us...."she's in five eps..." we could pretty much.....assume she's not staying around. As of right now...we don't know. She could stay forever. Him saying anything would pretty much give away that she isn't a serious threat to BB. I don't think for a second she is a serious threat or is staying around. lol But, I see what he means.


Normally they are contracted for x amount and it can change to less or more than that as the season goes on. I'd say they know and just....wont tell us because they are evil and want to torture us.

I honestly find that I don't really care about Hannah anymore. Honestly, I really don't care about the B&B ship anymore either. I mean, Hart has said they will be together, it's just a matter of when. So Hannah is temorary-at least romantically, so 5 eps, 10 eps, 3/4 of the season, all season...I just don't care anymore. I'm more interested in watching Brennan "get with it" now than anything. I hope Cam and Angela-and Clark keep riding her case about it.

I guess I should rephrase the I don't care about Hannah anymore-because I would rather she not be there, what I'm getting at, is I'm done angsting over the storyline. Maybe I'm just desensitized to the whole thing now. But it's a heck of alot better not feeling like I got punched in the gut every time she's mentioned. Makes watching the show more enjoyable too

You know everything has a natural life cycle including a tv romance. For me, that cycle should have climaxed at the end of season 5. The timing was right as was the emotional tension. Now they've pushed it beyond that and put it on life support. The trouble with saying they'll eventually get together is that the magic is gone. Can they get it back? Only time and the next few episodes will tell. But foreplay can only go on so long and then everyone loses both the urge and the urgency. The sad thing is that for Booth, the dam broke, but it broke with someone else besides Brennan. I really don't see how they fix that.

That's kind of how I feel too. I'm not sure how they can pull it out and make it believeable, so I'll just watch and not worry about it

I liked the first ep.. I don't see a problem with their chemestry. I see Booth acting and feeling uncomfortable because he's decided to move on...taken steps to move on...believes that he's moved on, and now he's back near her, and it's harder than he thought it would be, so he isn't so sure.n He's bolstering his confidence by showing Hannah's picture off, and acting as though he's sure he's moved on. But I see him doubting himself already. When he begins to feel that Bones has changed...he will find it even harder. Maybe not a final getting together, but sort of the same way, Brennan extracated herself from Sully because she felt she couldn't leave Booth.

I see Brennan saying to herself..."well, that's that...there's nothing I can do about it, I made a mistake by saying no and running away, becuase I was scaredm and because I thought I would hurt him, and now I've hurt myself, but he's happy, and since people who care about eachother, care about the other being happy, I'm going to do my best to make sure he's happy...and if Hannah makes him happy, then that's what I'm going to support!" major compartmentalizing. But she's more aware that she's doing that, not as clueless a she was before.

But I feel like the acting and the writing is saying one thing...but there's an undercurrent of something else entirely. I like it! So far. It's not enough to make me worry yet. And I feel confident that Hannah will be gone in just a few episodes, but her effects might be felt for a while afterward.

I agree that any confirmation of how many eps whe will be around for would be a spoiler, and Hart has made it clear he's not giving away any spoilers. The studio may do differently, but he's not going to. I will say this though. Even the most long term, permanent seeming,big baddies all encompassing love stories, or significant other stories.... 1e. Tessa, Rebecca, Gravedigger, Howard Epps, Sully, Gormogon, Angela and Roxie, Angela and Wendell, Bones and Hacker, etc..the arc never lasted longer than three episodes, with maybe a few of them having some in- between eps where they were mentioned, but not on the show. Even Booth messing around with Cam didn't last longer than three episodes before that storyline was finalized. It seems that 3 is the magic number. That's just my feeling about that subject.

Just to be accurate about lovers: Sully was in 4 episodes, Booth/Cam lasted from 2x05 till 2x12 - 8 episodes (it was long enough, if you ask me). And Hacker doesn't count because there was no sex.

It seems that 3 is the magic number.

I like the way you're thinking.

Not going to happen. As of now Hannah is in or mentioned through episode 5 and they've been talking about 'the middle of the season' for any kind of change to happen. There has been way too much emphasis and build-up of this storyline to cut it down to three episodes. Hannah seems to be the selling point for the first half of the season with the new GD in the second half.

As I mentioned somewhere else (not sure which thread)... I just really don't want Hannah to be tied to the new GD accomplice this season (as a victim)... talk about baggage... Cause if she's in a lot of the first 1/3 or 1/2 the season they could say a 'regular' gets killed off... cause to HH and co they can justify by saying later she was a 'regular' this season.

I really don't think that's where they're going.

My gut says they'll use the GD thing to bring Booth/Brennan closer somehow. Like maybe, Brennan isn't the one who gets killed but she's there when it happens, and perhaps injured ... Booth realizes he never stopped loving her. Hannah realizes the same. Exit Hannah.

At least that's what I'm going with for now. No evidence, but it'd work for me. Lol.

I think that is where they might be going too Bailey. As much as Brennan needs to wake up-once she does, she won't dare come between Booth and Hannah. Booth is also going to need a wake up call he has closed himself off to Brennan and compartmentalized. If Brennan is hurt or presumed dead it will give him the kick he needs to end it with Hannah. Emily keeps saying she could be the victim. We all know hey won't kill her off-no Bones, no Bones. But she could be presumed dead or seriously injured. Soap opera-y?? You betcha. But a significant other storyline isn't?
