Also, a childhood friend of Jamie’s is convinced that she has single-handedly solved a cold case murder, and Frank struggles to trust an ex-detective when he brings forth information about a suspected crime ring, on BLUE BLOODS.

Jamie's storyline was everything I'd hoped for. Alison is delightfully daffy, managing to embarrass Jamie regularly. We may have only had a couple of moments between Jamie and Eddie, but they were fun and sweet. Frank's story was interesting, really kept you guessing which way it would it go. Having rewatched season 10's The Price... Continue Reading →
The Reagans confront hard choices on the job when Frank deals with a police captain who’s losing his grip over his precinct, and Danny faces backlash from the Baez and Internal Affairs over a tough call he made in the field. Also, Jamie and Eddie are shown the ropes of field crisis management when a... Continue Reading →
Oh wow, Jamie and Eddie's story was emotional and fun while allowing us to see so many aspects of their relationship. Jamie and Eddie had differing views, but still worked towards a common goal. Plus there was an amazing amount of silent communication even if we didn't see them get quite as close as the... Continue Reading →

Meanwhile, Erin questions Mayor Poole on... Continue Reading →

Today’s post is about Eddie’s episode, and there’ll be a bonus post on Friday about Jamie’s episode. When a star witness in a double murder case drops out, Erin is tasked with... Continue Reading →
Eddie and her partner, Officer Rachel Witten (Lauren Patten), are heralded for their bravery for stopping an active shooter, until a civilian comes forward to accuse them of faking the incident as part of a government conspiracy. Also, Frank pries into a decades-long history of cash payments his father Henry has been making to an... Continue Reading →
Eddie and Witten's story had a deeply moving conclusion, and have to be impressed by how they handled Witten's first shooting of that kind without repeating what we've previously seen with Jamie in Front Page News and Eddie in Power Players. Henry's reasons for giving money weren't entirely surprising as it felt like there must... Continue Reading →
Frank must decide whether the department can accommodate a request to remain in the field from Detective Allison Mulaney (Ali Stroker), a lauded cop who is wheelchair-bound after being wounded in the line of duty. Also, Erin is conflicted by the weight of her authority in the sentencing of a man guilty of vehicular homicide,... Continue Reading →
The Jamie and Eddie story was work-focused rather than relationship-focused, it gave a really nice feel of them working as a team and that having contrasting views doesn't automatically lead to an argument. Family dinner was so funny and a high-energy scene, amusing to see Eddie finding out more about Jamie's past love life courtesy... Continue Reading →
