(Should they choose to go that route.) Jen you said it yourself Sam got over his paranoia really fast.<br /><br />Kink Bobby's character did make a lot of sense in the beginning mainly as a plot device by helping the boys when they had their backs up against the wall or when completely stumped on how to ID their creature of the week or a simple kill method, when the usual internet research came up with nothing and Bobby had all those rare texts and experience. As the show drew on he became more of a father and Bobby started accompanying them on missions and had some major development which was good. I especially loved his paralyzed mini arc in 5. Much like when Cas was overused so became Bobby and our main heroes seemed almost impotent when it came to taking care of business by relyig on those two more than their own intuitions and skills.Darrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17466991405593763442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8004885658234626174.post-2117766328731594362011-11-20T16:53:38.640-08:002011-11-20T16:53:38.640-08:00I'm not sure if he's actually going to die...I'm not sure if he's actually going to die, but I agree that I would not be particularly heartbroken. Not that I don't like Bobby, but it's true they do use him as sort of a crutch to always have the answers.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17542685770827922270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8004885658234626174.post-49954094374878820132011-11-19T13:03:01.096-08:002011-11-19T13:03:01.096-08:00Darren may have a point. Remember in the first se...Darren may have a point. Remember in the first season, whenever they needed research done on anything either Sam or Dean fired up the laptop or visited the library and did it themselves? When's the last time we saw them do that, as opposed to flipping open a cell and speed-dialing Bobby?<br /><br />Sometimes they needed a father figure, or a third hunter, or a place to regroup, or a house decked out in supernatural books and protection. But there was a time when they got along without any of that stuff.<br /><br />Bobby's character made sense for the show in a lot of ways, but they came to rely on him too much, IMO. Maybe it's time for this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8004885658234626174.post-82015653100751896212011-11-19T10:30:42.690-08:002011-11-19T10:30:42.690-08:00Bobby is probably going to die. The way this show ...Bobby is probably going to die. The way this show has been cleaning house, and talks of Sera wanting to go back to the roots of the show with just the two boys pretty much says it all. Bobby may I hate to say this had been wasted space for years. He's funny interesting but with our heroes in their early 30's there's no place for Bobby's wisdom without having Sam and Dean look moronic.Darrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17466991405593763442noreply@blogger.com
