WAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! More of my respected opinions flist thinking Bobby is dead or should be within the context of this episode.
I just don't know about this - "There is NO DOUBT that we will see Bobby again. We pretty much see all dead characters again. It's just means the boys won't have Bobby anymore. No one to call when they need help, no one to ask advice from and no one to tell them to pull their heads out of their asses. That's the sad part. It's also the exciting part. We are truly seeing the boys alone. Together. And I am intrigued with how this will play out."
WHY would they kill Bobby off? I discussed this with Mr Redteekal Tim and as far as he's concerned they either do it for one of two things 1) To progress the over arching story forwards or 2) Shock value - lame! He doesn't think Bobby is dead because Bobby is such a crucial character for the boys, killing him does not progress the Leviathan story (in fact it just makes it more complicated for a possible Leviathan solution) and leaving the boys all alone will just make writing the stories harder in terms of resolution. He is the one character that has been in the boys lives since before the series started. They could kill John off because they HAD Bobby.
I truly don't think he's been killed off, I think he will be unavailable to the boys for the rest of the season mostly because the whole idea of the boys on their own ENTIRELY (whilst this pretty much terrifies me and fills me with a horrible sense of foreboding) is indeed intriguing (and petrifying) ultimately I think there will be someone or something stepping in to bring him back into their lives again, whole and human. Whether that happens at the end of this season of the beginning of the next remains to be seen. He is too much of a lynchpin for so many plot points. It makes no sense!!! But as I said to Tim - I'm not so sure that Supernatural has ever backed away from killing off characters just because it makes no sense. No point in taking the path of least resistance with this show afterall. LOL!!
Of course Jim Beaver has not breathed a word on his twitter because I daresay the writers/show makers have decreed it to be this way in orde rto engender this speculation and fandom freak out.
