It’s Official! XXXXXX Is Coming Back To Supernatural!
This news leaked on Twitter last night, from of all people the source, yet many were skeptical. Some thought the Twitter account had been hacked, some thought it was another Yeti joke, but today The CW confirmed it.
JIM BEAVER IS COMING BACK TO SUPERNATURAL!!!! Here are his tweets from last night breaking the news, and of course teasing us after seeing the script. Chances are very good it’s the season premiere, because they just started casting for the season premiere, which will be the second episode shot (9.02). It is Written by Jeremy Carver, Directed by John Showalter. The episode title is, “I Think I’m Gonna Like It Here.”
Try not to get excited, but I’m coming back to SUPERNATURAL. For real.

I don’t know how or why, but I know when. Once I’ve read the script, I’ll know how & why. But you won’t. 🙂 #Bobbysback

Read the script. Didn’t see this one coming. Whatever you think it is — it ain’t. #Bobbysback

“In the 9th season opener of Supernatural, Sam and Dean find the intact skin of deceased hunter Bobby Singer and make a rug out of it, which they use to decorate the Impala. Jim Beaver guest stars briefly.” –TV Glide
“Correction: In the 9th season opener of Supernatural, Sam finds a toy soldier in the back seat of the Impala and tries to convince Dean it looks just like Bobby Singer. Jim Beaver guest stars briefly.” –TV Glide
“Correction: Premiere episode of Supernatural season 9 finds Sam & Dean terrorized by the invisible, silent spirit of old friend Bobby Singer. Guest starring Jim Beaver, whose paycheck is also invisible.”
“Correction: Supernatural season 9 premiere: Sam dreams that he is inside one of Dean’s dreams, in which Castiel dreams he is Bobby Singer dreaming he’s back on Deadwood. Jim Beaver guest stars, or is it a dream?” –TV Glide.
Me thinks a few of those (okay all) are foilers, but hey, we don’t mind! We’re just happy to have Bobby back in any capacity. Welcome back Jim! I hope it’s more than one episode.
Can’t imagine a better news – I love Bobby and adore Jim Beaver (or vice versa)! Real old school classy performance which is never too much! And if Bobby doesn’t deserve to be resurrected who ever will?
When I read his tweets, it made my day!
Maybe he’ll be a hunter still, in heaven. Hope we see him in more than a few episodes.
Love Bobby! Biggest mistake ever to kill him! 😮
Hmmm. Not sure how I feel about this. I love, love Bobby but to keep bringing him back seems cheesy after his emotional death episode. But I love me some Bobby, so what the heck. Sam & Dean have both had emotional death scenes and keep coming back so why not Bobby?
Love they’re bringing Bobby back. Just hope the writers don’t screw the pooch. The safe bet is it’ll either be in in flashback form, or an alternate universe/reality type deal; think [i]”The French Mistake”[/i] or [i]”My Heart Will Go On”[/i].
If the show-runners have some balls and writing skills, they’ll do it properly though. Either Naomi realised what was going on and sent Bobby back [i](possibly via proxy)[/i] before she got ganked, with information to help the brothers combat Metatron, or – with the Angels falling – Metatron sent a specific Angel down, using Bobby as a meat-suit, to keep an eye on Sam & Dean and make sure they don’t get in the way (like Naomi did with Cas).
Time will tell.
Maybe Bobby will take over for Naomi? Someone has to keep an eye on Metatron. And the boys would have an inside man!
Oh, yea, I’m stoked to hear this news! 😀 I’m very happy right now and doing a sitting down (I’m at work after all) happy dance. 😆
And what about Gabriel? Will he came back?
