9-1-1: The show business explains why he decided to kill this historic figure

Fans find it difficult to believe, but the writers dare … Bobby Nash, a character performed by Peter Crowe, died in the 8th season episode, published this Thursday, April 17 on ABC.

Moving death occurred during a catastrophic episode, in which several flagship characters were locked in a lab in the fire. To save colleagues, Bobby Nash finally decided to sacrifice himself and die in front of Athens.

Why did Bobby kill Nash?

In an interview with our colleagues TermTim Minear, a 9-1-1 show, returned to this bold choice to kill one of the main characters in the series. Since its launch, Bobby has indeed become a spiritual father of 118 -year -old firefighters. Death that leaves the series fans with a broken heart.

Tim Minar explained that Bob’s death was a choice “100% creative“It was not Peter Kraus who asked to go, but also writers who made the choice separately from the character.

“” “I think the writers but also the spectators began to rest on their laurels because they knew they would eventually work out everything“He said before he added:”These have been two seasons, perhaps even more, that I mean this idea and tell myself that at one point I have to do it. “

“And when I had the idea of ​​this episode in the lab, I realized it was time to do it, I felt it was a real opportunity to offer someone epic death. When the time came, it would be, I wanted to be a character that applies to all other characters in a very specific and but very different way.

What will be the results of this death for the rest of 9-1-1?

Obviously, the killing of such a character will have huge results on a 9-1-1 extension, which has already been updated for 9 seasons. As we see in the trailer for the 16th episode, all characters manage this death in their own way.

And the fireplace, who had to die at the site of Bob, wants to sacrifice himself.

“” “Bobby is not only captain of 118, he is also a paternal figure and a mentor for Buck. This is a source of inspiration for each of them. She is considered a husband. He is the stepfather of Athens’s childhood. It is found in many elements of the series. As for where we are going to go, only history tells us”

As for whether the barracks will soon welcome the new member to replace Bob, Tim Mineah has remained very mysterious: “I will really expand the firefighters’ family but not necessarily as you think. “The case must be followed then …
