Bones“, on FOX, is based on the Kathy Reichs series featuring forensic scientist Temperance Brennan. Her most recent book is “Bones to Ashes

Dexter” is a show that could only be on cable; Showtime to be precise. Based on novels by Jeffry Lindsay such as “Dexter in the Dark“, this dark series is about a serial killer who targets criminals.
