Enjoyable and agreeable series with important human values and all swirling through this decent family that passionately defend their city from harm , violence , corruption and bad guys . This is an Irish-American family deeply rooted in their patriotism, passion, comradeship , sensitive relations and love of family . As each member of the Reagan family represents a virtue according with their age and daily life . Nearly each episode features a family dinner . The family dinner happens always each Sunday around 17:00 to 17:30 . These scenes are usually of the longest ones to shoot . Filming nearly relocated from New York City to Toronto because city and state tax credit programs had expire . Magnificent acting all around , such as Tom Selleck as the upright and hard-working Frank Reagan . Frank/Tom Selleck requests to keep a sense of family and must balance his duties of running the largest police force in the world and being his kids' boss . This is the fourth mystery/crime series for Tom Selleck after Magnum, P.I. (1980) and A murder , she wrote (1984) and he repeated his role as Magnum in a crossover episode , and Jessie Stone TV films. His father is nicely performed by Len Cariou , although they play father and son, Len Cariou is only five years and four months older than Tom Selleck. His daughter Erin is an Assistant District Attorney stunningly played by the attractive Bridget Moynahan .Donnie Wahlberg plays finely Danny Reagan (187 episodes) , he is accompanied in work by Maria Baez : Marisa Ramírez , his wife Linda Reagan , Amy Carlson's character, works as a nurse . And the grand-daughter Nicky played by Sami Gayle, though the actress who played "Nicky Reagan-Boyle" in the pilot is Marlene Lawston that was her only performance in "Blue Bloods" , being replaced the rest of the series by Samy Gayle . Nicky aces a test to get into the NYPD police academy, it's revealed that Erin's fear for Nicky being a cop is less of her being a mother and more about them losing Joe in the line of duty. Support cast and guest stars are frankly good , such as : Nicholas Turturro , David Ramsey , Victor Slezak , Andrea Roth, Robert John Burke, Bruce Altman, Tamara Tunie , Jack McGee, Mimi Rogers , Bebe Neuwirth , James Lesure , Jennifer Esposito, among others . Being well directed by good professionals as David Barrett , Alex Chapple , Robert Harmon, Ralph Hemecker , John Behring , Eric Laneuville , Michael Pressman , John Polson, Peter Werner , Félix Enríquez Alcalá , James Withmore Jr. , Nick Gómez .The expert Creators: Mitchell Burgess, Robin Green and Writers: Mitchell Burgess, Robin Green, Brian Burns have created a nice series .
