Torontosun.com David BoreanazDavid Boreanaz - "Bones" Tv Series - A Foxy press partyBill Brioux Thursday 25 January 2007, by Webmaster PASADENA — Worked one last press tour party, the Fox "White Hot Winter" blast at the Villa Sorriso. Fox usually does a good job of getting the stars out and this year was no exception. DAD ON ROCKETSHIP 7 Spotted Bones’ David Boreanaz and had to ask: Is it true his dad was Buffalo WKBW legend and Rocketship 7 host Dave Thomas? "Yes, that’s my dad," confirmed Boreanaz, who waited for the stunned grin to disappear from my face; he gets it a lot, he says. Rocketship 7 aired from 1962 until Thomas left the station in 1978. Torontonians over 40 might remember Thomas was also the daytime host of Dialing For Dollars (a low-budget phone-in show lampooned in the early days of SCTV). Boreanaz says he often visited the set, which was home to the boxy Promo The Robot, a $1.95 version of the robot from Lost In Space. Boreanaz says his dad is still in the business as a Philadelphia weatherman and now goes by the name Dave Roberts. Bones’ co-star Emily Deschanel looked radiant in party black. That eye-catching hand necklace she wore during the first season is called "The Hand Of Fatima" and was made for her by the show’s costumer, she said. Said hi to Ricky Blitt, a Montreal native who has created a new comedy for Fox called The Winner, starring The Daily Show’s Rob Corddry. Blitt blurted to critics earlier that day that the series, about a 32-year-old virgin, was largely autobiographical. Blitt used to write for horrible CBC shows such as Hangin’ In and Learning The Ropes. "No wonder you never got laid," I told him after the session. "There’s your lead," said Blitt, laughing. Party winding down, I made one last sweep around the many rooms that made up the restaurant. I was looking, of course, for The Next Mrs. Brioux, Carla Gugino. She wasn’t there; I may have to come back. Keywords1 Message |
