Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe episode title refers to a series of popular children's books - The Bobbsey Twins - published from 1904 through 1992, written under the pen name Laura Lee Hope. The books chronicled the lives of the Bobbsey family, including two sets of fraternal twins, ages twelve and six. The books were extremely wholesome, and as a result were parodied easily. Soon after publication of the first book, the phrase "Bobbsey Twins" entered the vernacular as "two people who are inseparable, who are often seen together and look alike and act alike."
- GoofsWhen Matt and Doc are talking in the jail, Doc quotes from the Bible. Matt says the verse is from Chronicles and Doc agrees. The verse is really from Psalm 55:21.
Featured review
More of an oddity than an entertaining show.
I am sure that some will find this episode confusing even downright distasteful but if you had ever read the Bobbsey Twin books then this is a spoof of that collection. However it does not mean that the episode was entertaining since most of the episode was more macabre than interesting but with that knowledge it will be more of a semi-comedy than horror story.
The episode centers around two older twin brothers named Harvey and Merle Finney. They are on their way out west to kill Indians after hearing what they have done to white settlers. Along the way they were only taught, by their father, that killing is fine but never on Sunday.
After a brutal killing of two cowboys on the trail and the disregard for a woman in trouble, the two find themselves in Dodge ready to kill Indians. When someone at the Long Branch makes a joke and tells them that the man running the stables is part Cherokee, the two have their first Indian victim.
With characters that was actually more sad than interesting plus the uncomfortable subject matter, this is an episode that will not be on the top of anyone's list. Even when you take it for a spoof on the children's book it was still not an entertaining episode. This is an episode you will watch for a novelty and not for viewing pleasure.
