I just saw "Death Picks Cotton" again, and while I generally love the parts of the episode about Cotton and his effect on the characters, I don't like how Bobby was treated in this episode. He may be younger than the rest of the cast, but he's barely still a kid. Luanne getting on his case early on in the episode wasn't necessary, and their entire subplot almost ruins the rest of the episode in a way.

The good does out weigh the bad, but barely.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

I understand why they did it, because the episode was kind of dark, but I would have liked at least a follow-up episode where Bobby finds out.

Sort of like the episode where Hank has to do the things on his father's list and we don't get to see GH. That would have been nice to at least see him one last time.

I was also bothered that we never got to see Bobby and Cotton share a final moment or ever see Bobby's reaction to Cotton's death. Like Hank said, Cotton hated a lot of things but he loved Bobby and Bobby loved him.

Nel_Annette

Agreed. Especially since the beginning of that episode was the two of them hanging out, wasn't it?

Eddy

Yeah, Cotton was babysitting Bobby.

"But I left you a lasagna in the fridge."
"And I left it on the floor."

Avaitor

Yeah, there are very few things that Cotton actively loved, but Bobby was definitely one of them.

GH was another, yet we didn't see him or Didi in years by that point. You'd think they would've brought them back at least for that episode or a following one.

So, Ensatsu-ken, have you managed to see many more episodes of the show?

I'm planning to marathon it (along with other shows) over the Summer.
