So yes,9-1-1gave Bobby a decent death scene.

I wouldn’t have cried if it had been done badly (looking at you,Yellowjacketsadult timeline).

Now, though,9-1-1has taken a drastic turn.

Like Bobby Nash, my favorite procedural of all time is dead.

If Bobby had to die, this is probably the death scene I would have chosen – but he didn’t have to die.
