“Tom Selleck Opens Up About ‘Battles’ with Bridget Moynahan on ‘Blue Bloods'”

Over the years, particularly in season 9, Tom Selleck and Bridget Moynahan’s characters have faced their share of disagreements. Despite the tension, Tom recently admitted he enjoys filming these confrontational scenes. “The most fun scenes are when [Frank and Erin] are fighting,” he told TV Insider. While they often resolve their conflicts, their differences are likely to continue. Similar to how Jamie Reagan (Will Estes) and Eddie Janko (Vanessa Ray) navigate their personal and professional lives, Frank and Erin grapple with their roles and power dynamics at work. Frank, as police commissioner, and Erin, as bureau chief, often clash due to their professional and familial relationship. Bridget noted that Erin has had to assert herself as an equal to her father. The show also emphasizes strong female characters, something Tom Selleck highlights as a core value.
