As
for
his
feelings
on
the
matter, “I
get
killed
a
lot,”
he
joked,
referencing
the
parts
he
played
on
Game
of
Thrones
and Buffy
the
Vampire
Slayer. “I
like
to
die.”
Because,
of
course,
Joel
isn’t
the
first
beloved
character
to
meet
an
untimely
end.
After
nearly
eight
seasons
of
battling
the
survivor’s
guilt
from
losing
his
entire
family
in
a
fire,
it
simply
made
sense
for
Peter
Krause‘s
Bobby
Nash
to
be
killed
off
on
9-1-1‘s
April
17
outing.
“It
didn’t
feel
arbitrary,
because
if
you
track
the
tragic
arc
of
his
character,
of
where
he
started,
and
how
he
came
to
LA
looking
for
atonement,
it
just
makes
a
kind
of
tragic
sense
for
his
character
in
a
way
it
wouldn’t
for
another
character,” showrunner Tim
Minear told Variety
of
the
decision.
Plus, “Bobby’s
death
affects
every
single
character’s
story
in
a
way
that
really
no
other
character
death
would.”
And
it’s
far
from
the
first
onscreen
death
to
leave
fans
floored
and
just
a
bit
devastated.
