9-1-1 season 8 finale: Meet the baby Bobby Nash

We knew that there was a good chance that the 9-1-1 season 8 finale was going to leave us choked up — how could it not at this point?

Because of what we saw earlier this year with Bobby’s death, it feels like it was very-much a calculated decision to not deliver some absolutely insane cliffhanger at the conclusion of the story. Instead, everything went in a somewhat different direction as ended up seeing a number of personal milestones more so than shocking events.

For starters, Eddie is now moving back to the West Coast! It felt for a while like the show would find its way back to this decision and now, we are 100% here — and Christopher is with him! Meanwhile, Athena seems to be moving forward to the best of her ability, and Buck has made some key decisions when it comes to his living situation.

Perhaps the most important reveal in the finale, however, was us actually getting a chance to see Chimney and Maddie welcome their next child, a son who just so happens to bear the name of Bobby Nash. This led to Athena welcoming him to the world, a moment that felt full-circle but in a lot of other ways, deeply emotional. It was a rebirth that came after a death, and it may also allow Chimney the opportunity now to try and further pursue some of his own dreams.

After all, doesn’t it feel to everyone else like he is going to be the new Captain? It may not be confirmed but at the same time, it is as close to a foregone conclusion as you are probably going to find.
