While talking about a lot of events like “weddings, births, deaths, and everything,” Moynahan stated, “I think it’s more saying goodbye to the people behind the characters.” adding that they all have “created such a family on set with each other and the crew.”
“We’ve been through it all with each other,” Moynahan stated.
About the final season of Blue Bloods
As reported by the Hollywood Reporter, insiders close to the show stated that the renewal for the 14th and final season of Blue Bloods was only possible because the star and key producers decided to have a significant pay cut.
As per the report, it was a 25% pay cut, which they all jointly accepted, just so that the series could be renewed for a final season.
The show is coming to an end with its 18-episode season, which will be divided into two parts. The first 10 episodes will air in spring, and the remaining 8 will come out in the autumn.
This news was out in November, following which Tom Selleck, who plays the role of Frank Raegan, stated, “For the past 13 years, it has been an honor and a privilege to work on” the Blue Bloods set.
He also said that the series doesn’t just “celebrate the men and women who protect and serve in New York City,” but tells its viewers the “importance of family.”
