Check out what Boreanaz had to say below:
I’ve been playing this character for eight years and seven seasons, which has been the run of the show. I knew going into the season that it would be my last. I waited for this moment to kind of talk about that. For me, personally, I just saw it as a great time for the character to come full circle for what these special operators go through. It made sense because of the characters and his relationship to the teams and Brotherhood, so I was excited to come to that conclusion.
It was something that I had decided before the writers strike had hit, and then the writers strike hit, and things were crazy for a few months, as you know, and then we just decided that was it. I’m excited and humbled that I was able to play a character of this magnitude, but my body thanks me for taking a break and letting this one go.
