As a long-time viewer of “Blue Bloods,” I must say that the finale was a bittersweet affair. After 14 seasons and countless hours spent with the Reagan family, it was hard to let go. The last hour felt familiar yet poignant, much like the comforting embrace of an old friend you know you’ll miss dearly once they’re gone.
⚠️ WARNING: The following content may reveal spoilers about “End of Tour,” the December 13th season finale of “Blue Bloods.” Proceed with caution if you haven’t watched it yet!
After 14 seasons spanning 293 episodes, the long-running TV series “Blue Bloods” aired its last episode on Friday evening, marking its conclusion.
The final hour didn’t end dramatically; it was more like the familiar shows fans have enjoyed for the past 15 years – peppered with significant events. The Reagan family found themselves confronting an assault on the city and police specifically. Eddie (Vanessa Ray) and Mayor Chase (Dylan Walsh) were both wounded but lived through their ordeal; unfortunately, Eddie’s partner, Luis Badillo (Ian Quinlan), didn’t survive – he was shot during a call with her, causing deep sorrow within the Reagan family.
It’s fortunate that the final episode concluded with several joyful instances for the Reagan clan members. Specifically, Erin (played by Bridget Moynahan) chose to quietly tie the knot again with her former spouse (Peter Hermann). Just as she was about to disclose this exciting development to the family, Eddie and Jamie (Will Estes) unexpectedly revealed they were expecting their first baby.
In the meantime, Donnie Wahlberg‘s character, Danny, took his initial steps into dating again, prompted by Grandpa’s advice. He asked Baez out for a pizza date. Some viewers who have been following the series for a while, like myself, wondered if the show might reunite him romantically with his ex-partner Jackie (Jennifer Esposito).
Wahlberg communicates to EbMaster that the possibility might have been discussed, but he was not present during that discussion.
Kevin Wade, the producer, felt strongly about avoiding romantic entanglements in every partnership. I admired this viewpoint and shared it. For me, what mattered most was for Danny’s character to develop. As fans began to push for a relationship between Danny and Baez, I felt it was crucial for them to grow instead, with her influencing him significantly, and him coming to truly value her – something he hadn’t always done with other characters in the show.
He strongly emphasized that the audience should be aware of the profound level of affection – “beyond romantic partners, simply as fellow humans” – shared by the two characters.
He expressed that he put a great deal of effort into the situation. He wanted some resolution and pushed hard for it. I approached Siobhan O’Connor, asking her, “Please, consider this. They don’t necessarily need to get married, but a small gesture would be beneficial to indicate a potential future or growth in their relationship.
As a movie enthusiast, I can’t help but share my excitement about the scene between Danny and his grandpa that I helped create. Working alongside Len was an unforgettable experience, and the chemistry we had was simply priceless. You see, he’s following Grandpa’s guidance, and it feels so genuine. I believe we nailed it, making it feel like a perfect fit within the show’s atmosphere. It wasn’t about tying up loose ends with a neat bow; instead, it was a subtle hint at potential future developments for them.
Tom Selleck, the actor portraying Commissioner Frank Reagan and also serving as an executive producer, wasn’t involved in any conversations regarding the final episode plotlines, and was taken aback by all the events that transpired.
At some point, I began to embrace the unexpected events,” he shared with EbMaster, “since Frank isn’t aware of what lies ahead.
Throughout the last season, there were doubts about whether Frank might step down from his position as commissioner. When queried about his satisfaction with continuing in this role, the actor found himself at a loss for words.
Selleck stated, ‘I’m not sure since he never faced it. Yet, there seems to be a tale behind it. I know he despised the job, the burden it carried. He didn’t even try for it initially. So, it would have been intriguing,’ referring to the role. ‘He couldn’t resign. I believe he’d have to provoke dismissal. Interestingly, one trait he had was an overactive sense of responsibility that he seemed determined to pass on to everyone at our dinner table.’
Wahlberg says that Frank’s feelings about his job added to the family dynamic through the years.
He emphasizes that although the head of the family dislikes the role, he possesses unwavering integrity and a strong sense of duty, ensuring he performs it diligently,” he states. “Moreover, each child holds varying opinions regarding this matter.
