TVLine.com reports that the three actors will return to Bones to reprise their earlier roles in the series.

Since she was in the thoroughly unforgettable season-6 episode, "The Hole in the Heart," in which Mr. Nigel-Murray was fatally shot, it's pretty hard to forget Tina Majorino's guest stint on Bones. Her character of Special Agent Genevieve Shaw only hinted at what more she could do -- you know, other than scare off Broadsky by not being stealthy enough. Shaw is now set to reappear in episode 4 of the upcoming season.

Hopefully, she can be the FBI equivalent of a squintern for Booth. Because that would be kind of cool.

Also returning to Bones in season 7 is Carla Gallo, who has played the recurring role of Daisy Wick for several seasons now. There had been a question of the actress returning, thanks to work in potential fall-season pilots, but Gallo is now free for Bones duty.

Will she and Sweets keep their "ambiguous" relationship going? Did Sweets ever propose off-screen? It seems like a no, but you can never tell with those crazy kids. John Francis Daley, who plays Sweets, says "They love each other very much" but adds that their relationship is likely to be "unpredictable."

The final name among those announced to return is Ralph Waite, who previously played the role of Booth's grandfather back in season 5. The character will return in episode 4 of season 7 to help out Booth in the face of a "family crisis," according to Bones executive producer Stephen Nathan. There is no word on Grandpa Booth's feelings about the arrival of another great-grandchild.
