Tom Selleck stars as Frank Reagan, the New York Police Commissioner, and patriarch of the Reagan clan, a multigenerational family of cops. Frank's oldest son is Danny, a seasoned detective and Iraqi War veteran who occasionally uses dubious tactics to solve cases. Daughter Erin, the lone female, is an assistant district attorney. Fresh out of Harvard Law, Jamie is the youngest member and "golden boy" of the family. Jamie gave up a lucrative future in law to continue the family's tradition in police work, and is asked to participate in a secretive investigation that even his father does not know about.

Audience Member This is my favorite show! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review steve d The show hasn't changed one bit in 3 years, besides perhaps adding more conservative talking points. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member CBS's hit crime drama Blue Blues has a rocky third season but continues to deliver compelling stories. In a spectacularly idiotic move CBS fires Jennifer Esposito, which throws off the character dynamics and leads to a very uneven series of episodes where Det. Danny Reagan switches from mismatched partner to mismatched partner. Still, the story arcs of the other family members work pretty well; Jamie takes on a new partner, Erin gets promoted in the D.A.'s office, and Frank continues to butt heads with the mayor. Additionally, the cases-of-the-week tackle some interesting topical issues. Despite some missteps, Season 3 of Blue Bloods is entertaining and provocative.
