The CBS Network’s hit cop drama Blue Bloods concluded after completing a successful 14-season run. After working together for a decade and a half, saying goodbye was not without tears and hugs. Tom Selleck, who led the series as Frank Reagan, shared details from an ” ironic ” shoot on the last day of his filming.
Speaking to TV Insider, the Friends alum revealed that his last day of shooting was a family dinner, which was quite poetic given that it was the first scene they shot when the series started. “My last scene was, ironically, a family dinner,” he said. Without revealing much, the actor teased the new concluding season could feature the Reagan family reunion. “Everybody agreed with me that we should close the set for the family dinner and not exploit that. Most of them had four more days to shoot, but not me,” Selleck revealed.
When the filming wrapped, the Magnum P.I. actor read Edna St. Vincent Millay’s poem, Love Is Not All. His co-stars got emotional after hearing his rendition, followed by an “enormous amount” of crying and hugging. “Donnie was really broken up; he didn’t say much,” Selleck recalled. “Bridget spoke. Just about everybody said something. Vanessa [Ray] was pretty beat up by the experience.”
