As Blue Bloods prepares to conclude its run this fall, Tom Selleck has expressed that he will deeply miss the series and its cast. The show, which premiered in 2010, has captivated audiences for over a decade, spanning 14 successful seasons on CBS.
In a recent interview with TV Insider, Selleck emphasized the strong bonds he formed with his fellow cast members. “The actors. The family of actors is as close as the Reagan family and the characters that they play,” he shared, highlighting the genuine camaraderie that developed over the years.
A Unique Atmosphere
Selleck noted that the atmosphere among the cast was notably positive, contrasting with the often tumultuous dynamics seen in other long-running series. “There isn’t a single one of them who didn’t want to come back. Most shows don’t end that way—there’s petty jealousy and all sorts of things—but we seemed to overcome that,” he explained. This sense of unity has been a source of pride for everyone involved, creating a legacy that the cast can cherish.
The Role of Frank Reagan
Throughout the series, Selleck portrayed the dedicated Police Commissioner Frank Reagan, a character known for his unwavering commitment to justice and his ability to navigate the complexities of family life. His portrayal became a defining aspect of Blue Bloods, resonating with fans who appreciated the depth and integrity he brought to the role.
Despite his disappointment with CBS’ decision to end the show, Selleck remains proud of what the series accomplished. “It’s something for everybody to hang their hats on and be proud of,” he remarked, reflecting on the impact the show has had on both the cast and its audience.
Looking Ahead
As Blue Bloods approaches its finale, Tom Selleck’s heartfelt sentiments reveal the deep connections he forged during his time on the show. Though the series may be ending, the memories and relationships built over the years will undoubtedly remain with him and his co-stars. Fans can look forward to a final season that promises to honor the legacy of the Reagan family and the strong bonds that have defined Blue Bloods.
