| Director: | Tony Wharmby |
| Star: | Tamara Taylor (Dr. Camille Saroyan (Season 2+)), David Boreanaz (Special Agent Seeley Booth), Emily Deschanel (Dr. Temperance Brennan), Eric Millegan (Zack Addy), Michaela Conlin (Angela Montenegro), T.J. Thyne (Dr. Jack Hodgins) |

In both the original and repeat airings, part of a line of dialogue of Booth's is deleted from the soundtrack. The line sounds something like "Lori loves Graham, he thinks he loves her, but finds out that he doesn't so she goes all....at him." The closed-captioning doesn't display anything after the word doesn't.

Brennan: So you talked to Ms. Sinders? That must have been difficult since she doesn't have a head.
(edit)
Booth: (concerned) You want me to go down there with you?
Brennan: No, I don't want the remains compromised. (edit) Bones: I can read bones, not people.
Booth: You had no trouble seeing through me. (edit) Bones: (Walks in and sees Hodgins lounging in front of the video footage screen) Have you finished with the particulates from the ax handle?
Hodgins: I've determined that the assailant was wearing rough hewn leather gloves but I still have to check...
Booth: Then why are you in here?
Angela: Because I want him here. (edit) Booth: ...perfect cover, headless witch did it, not me. (edit)

Joshua Leonard appears as Nate Gibbons. Leonard is famous for his role in The Blair Witch Project, of which this episode is a parody.
(edit)
When Booth says that he was going to talk to the girl about her "magical mystery tour" in the woods, he was talking about the Beatles' album "The Magical Mystery Tour". It's known that it was made under the influence of LSD.
(edit)
Booth: I'm just saying, you know, I see a lot of weird things. It was like, you know, Exorcist weird, Elm Street weird.
Booth is referring to classic horror movies:
Exorcist (1973), starring Linda Blair, Ellen Burstyn, and Max von Sydow, and
the Nightmare on Elm Street movies, with their legendary evil character Freddy Krueger. (edit) Brian: I've got it accepted in the Sundance. (about his Gilgamesh movie)
Sundance Film Festival is the largest independent cinema festival in the U.S. and ranks alongside the most prestigious film festivals worldwide (Venice, Toronto, Cannes, Berlin). (edit) When asked about favorite music, Will mentions Snow Patrol, an alternative rock band from Northern Ireland, and Leonard Cohen, Canadian singer and songwriter. (edit) Graham's screenplay was based on the Epic of Gilgamesh, Babylonian poem from about 2000 BC. (edit)

The Headless Witch in the WoodsGreat "Filler episode" As a parody of "The Blair Witch Project," the episode does very well, but when considered amongst all episodes of the series then "The Headless Witch in the Woods" is definitely filler. Continue » Posted May 18, 2008 10:09 pm PST |
