Now if they can just straighten out the timeline and ages. Bobby is only 21 yet Hank and Peggy aged like 15 years and it’s only been 7ish since previous series. But H&P have been gone like 10 years to the Middle East? Dafuq? Now if Bobby was in his 30s it would make more sense.
Season 13 aired in 2009, so it’s been 16 years IRL, but I don’t think that matters for the time jump.
Bobby was what, 12, 13 when the first run finished? Also, did they say how long they were in Saudi Arabia? If Bobby’s 21, and they were there 10 years, they’d have had to have left when he was 11 which doesn’t check out.
But I did wonder about the aging. Boomhaur looks like shit but he also tans a lot, so that makes sense. Dale looks almost exactly the same, but he’s kind of a basement-dweller/opposite of Boomhaur, so I guess that makes sense.
There’s no way Bill dropped his shut-in weight that fast, but I’ll let it slide. He should definitely be graying though.
Peggy, Kahn, Minh, and Nancy, and the Wassanasongs all look about right, IMO.
People can age radically differently from one another. I smoked for 20+ years, still look better than most of my graduating class, no more wrinkles than anyone else, and mostly fewer. My wife’s Asian, no wrinkles, perfectly smooth everywhere, maybe a dozen gray hairs. I was carded for tobacco and alcohol well into my 40s. At 55, we both have all factory original teeth and hair.
Then there were the guys losing their hair and getting fat in their 30s. Don’t go on FB anymore, but I was shocked at so many of us turned out in our 40s. 🤷🏻

Hank, though, doesn’t look like he aged a day.

They seem to have just given up and decided Arlen is in DFW after all, so all that mystery box energy had to go somewhere!
