Blue Bloods returns on Friday, October 7. With a run for DA, Erin is poised to join her dad, the police commissioner, as a leader in law and order.

Here, New York City’s top cop and Reagan patriarch Tom Selleck gives an inside look at Season 13.

'Blue Bloods' Team Previews a Reagan in Danger & a Big Campaign in Season 13

In the premiere, Frank goes on an incognito late-night walk around the city to check on his cops. What’s the result?

Tom Selleck: It gives him insight into the loss of morale in the NYPD, and he’ll deal directly with that serious issue. Frank has had to walk a tightrope in this woke environment. Now he’s realizing he’s not going to be as diplomatic, and I like that for him. He’s due for a confrontation with Mayor Chase [Dylan Walsh] — ’cause he seems to be talking out of both sides of his mouth, in Frank’s opinion.

Blue Bloods has always strived to be nonpartisan.

It’s a show about a law-enforcement family and their point of view, but it doesn’t mean they’re always right and their adversaries don’t have a point…unless they’re just flat-out murdering criminals. [Chuckles]

Will Frank go out on a limb and endorse Erin for Manhattan DA?

He wrestles with that. Is his endorsement a plus or a minus? It gets intense for the whole family.

Can we look forward to some interesting guests at Sunday dinner? Returning grandkids? Erin’s ex-husband, Jack Boyle (Peter Hermann)?

I won’t say who, but you’ll be surprised how many people are at the table. And Jack’s been lurking.

Bridget says making it to 15 seasons would be lovely. You in?

I’ve got a mortgage. I’m game!

    I would like to see blue bloods go to season 20 if that's possible. Is one hell of a show. I would like to see Danny and Maria together as a couple and Danny finally get the top job as police commissioner.

    Blue Bloods best thing on TV.

    My all time favorite before Blue Bloods was NYPD Blue up until Jimmy Smits left. I have all the DVDs and often watch instead of current TV shows.

    I now buy DVDs of Blue Bloods as soon as available and watch them over and over.

    Love all the characters (wow, what a casting job!)

    DO NOT EVER LOSE JAMIE! Don't think I could stand to watch it without him.

    Let's see less problems and more loving between Jamie and Eddie. They're a young newly wed couple -

    have them look like it.

    Saw more with Jamie and old short-lived fiancee & even his one night stand than we see with Eddie.

    When writing you sometimes miss already established facts about characters i.e. Jamie & Eddie grab on to each other after Jamie almost killed, kiss passionately on highway after terrifying incident, show up next morning at dinner and announce they got engaged last night (which Danny makes a point of).

    Then in another show after they are married, they go to miniature golf course, and Jamie mentions that he proposed to her there. naaahh

    Anthony, of course, has one daughter, Sophia. Once when comforting parent of lost child, parent asks them, do you have any children? Erin says "one girl" and Anthony says "one of each." naaahh

    I'm not complaining - just letting you know that your loyal audience (like me) are dedicated to the Reagans, and notice anything different about any of them.

    Maria is good; but JACKIE WAS THE BEST. Firing her-WORST DECISION EVER! Still miss her

    If Selleck still has a mortgage, he’s a really horrible money handler.

      It’s Bridget Moynahan (Erin Reagan) who says that.

        "Bridget says making it to 15 seasons would be lovely. You in?

        I’ve got a mortgage. I’m game!"

        I guess he doesn't believe in his reversible mortgage deals he's been hawking for years!!

      He probably has a "reverse" mortgage! 😉 but he also lives in California where taxes are like 80%, so maybe not mismanagement. Should've just lived elsewhere. Haha

    If they stay producing good stuff, they can go on indefinitely. I would love to see Jamie as the commissioner when Frank is ready to retire.

    Starting watching around season 5 I need to go back and watch old ones.. IM hooked on it our Fridays were Magnum and Blue Bloods but CBS made a bonehead decision and cancelled Magnum. I too will watch Blue Bloods till the end, looks like a bad show that replaced Magnum.
