Emily and Zooey Deschanel on working together
YouTube
The Bones episode marked the first time the sisters appeared together on screen, though they had been in plays together when they were younger. What was it like working together? “We had fun and hope to do it again sometime,” Emily told BuddyTV, “but—” Here, Zooey interrupted her sister: “But not for too long.” Emily agreed.
Zooey pointed out that, because Emily was a producer on the show, she was technically working for Emily. Not that that was a bad thing — she said the shoot went smoothly, and she had a great time. “You’re one of my favorite employees,” Emily told her sister. The pair also shared with BuddyTV some other celebrity siblings they admired: the Kardashians, the Olsen twins, the Arquettes. “I like those sisters who design Rodarte,” Zooey added. “They’re cool.” Emily may never have appeared on Zooey’s series New Girl, but there’s plenty of time for more Deschanel sister collaborations in the future. Here’s hoping!

In the episode, Bones’ father even alludes to the actors’ real life relationship, saying, “Well, it’s an uncanny resemblance. You’re practically sisters.” (via YouTube)
“Emily’s always interesting…” Zooey teased, side-eyeing her sister, but she reiterated. “No, I’m kidding.” In the same interview, Zooey revealed that she hadn’t seen any recent episodes of the show—oops.
