Donnie Wahlberg is blamed for dominating The Blue Bloods Blooper reel, according to Tom Selleck
“Blue Bloods” has delivered solid performance for the CBS network. The show, now in its 13th season, follows the professional and personal lives of the Reagan family, most of whom work in the legal profession or law enforcement. Frank Reagan (Tom Selleck) is the police commissioner, while his eldest son Danny (Donnie Wahlberg) works as a detective and his youngest son Jamie (Will Estes) works as a sergeant. Erin (Bridget Moynahan), Frank’s only daughter, works as an assistant district attorney.
While the overarching plot revolves around police and legal work, the film is ultimately about a family. Each episode includes the Reagan family’s weekly dinner scene, in which everyone eats a lot and discusses themes central to the episode’s plot. Sometimes there are disagreements, especially between family members who do not work in law enforcement. The dinner scene is known as “the heart of every show”.
Despite the film’s dramatic content, it doesn’t take itself entirely seriously, especially behind the scenes. The cast has clearly bonded like a family after 13 seasons, as evidenced by their continued stellar performance on set.
Tom Selleck claims that Donnie Wahlberg caused the most disruption.
After more than a decade on the air, stars Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg reflected on the show and their time on the air in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. When asked who created the most content for the blooper reel, Selleck said without hesitation: “Wahlberg.” “Oh, that’s Donnie,” he realized. “He’s like their king.” Wahlberg couldn’t help but laugh in agreement. “I have to be in the top two!” “I think it’s pretty balanced, but I try to have fun,” he said.
And he seemed to be having fun; On any foul roll, Wahlberg has a few overs, but he also relies on them when they happen. He has a tendency to jump around, joke with the crew, or make fun of others when they forget their lines. He even acknowledged his dog at his feet in a blooper that he apparently brought in for filming that day.
It’s nice to see the cast still laughing after 13 seasons. Selleck frequently reflected on his good fortune in two long-running shows. “We did ‘Magnum [P.I.]’ for eight seasons and I never thought we would get that lucky.” “We’ve done 13 and are still going strong,” he told Entertainment Tonight. That kind of success is hard to come by, and everyone on the show appeared grateful for the opportunity.
