Betty White will be showing up on the upcoming season of Fox’s Bones starring Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz. According to the network’s official announcement, White will be guest starring in an episode as Dr. Beth Mayer, “an accomplished, sharp as a tack, absolutely fabulous SQUINTERN who is brought in to assist in a murder linked to fantasy football — which just happens to be one of her many areas of expertise! With a half century of work under her belt, Dr. Mayer is without a doubt the world’s most experienced forensic anthropologist, which will lead to some serious competition with Dr. Brennan (Emily Deschanel) to prove who is the more brilliant scientist!”

Season 11 of Bones will premiere on October 1, 2015 and White’s episode is scheduled to air that month.

White has earned seven Emmy Awards, a People’s Choice Award, and holds the Guinness World record as the female with the longest television career. A passionate advocate for animals, after 70 years in the entertainment business, White remains a fan favorite – and is showing no signs of slowing down. She recently finished shooting the final season of Hot in Cleveland and continues to be sought after for roles in films and on TV.
