Bridget Moynahan and her Blue Bloods co-stars can't help but feel a "little disappointed" by the show's conclusion. Following its launch in 2010, the hit police drama was cancelled by CBS in November 2023, with season 14B marking the beginning of the end.

Ahead of the emotional milestone, Bridget – aka Erin Reagan – spoke to People Magazine about her last day on the New York set and revealed a particularly poignant moment with Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg.
Explaining that she and Tom had watched Donnie film his final scenes, Bridget recalled: "We were behind a monitor – I'm getting choked up as I say this – and I had my arm around Tom. and he was holding onto my hands the way my dad did.

Blue Bloods wrapped filming over the summer, with Donnie – aka Danny Reagan – holding back tears in a video shared on Instagram.
"I've taken this walk thousands of times in 14 years and it was a very emotional final walk from the Blue Bloods dinner scene, last week, to my dressing room," he penned in the caption.
"More emotional than I could have ever imagined. Of course some sad tears — but mostly tears of immense gratitude. It's been a wonderful adventure. One that, I know, so many of us/you wish could continue.
"My desire to carry on, however, is only surpassed by the amount of humility I feel for having been part of this wonderful journey at all. None of it came easy, but nothing good ever comes easy — and none of it would ever occur if we don't allow ourselves to believe that our dreams can become reality," mused Donnie.
"Nor would it happen without the support of the greatest fans ever, the greatest crew ever, in one of the greatest cities ever and one of the greatest law enforcement departments ever. Thank you to the Blue Bloods faithful. Til we meet again."
