BONES, Fox Mondays at 8 PM, now in its eighth season, is as much or more about its characters as it is about the crimes solved by forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) and her life/work partner FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz). However, there have been few characters on the show as consistently surprising as lab assistant Arastoo Viziri, played by Pej Vahdat. Arastoo is Iranian and speaks with an Iranian accent – until in one episode he lets it lapse and his fellow scientists learn he actually has an American accent and was just playing along because of […]Read On »
