I'm so excited my decades long heartthrob Tom Selleck will lead in a new series this fall; Blue Bloods on Friday night. I wish it wasn't another cop show but at least it will be written by the writers that wrote for the Soprano’s show. Another Irish family cop show in NY. Tom is police chief, a detective son, a rookie beat cop son and a daughter DA. Doesn't sound that great but eye candy for a season at least.

Could be interesting. I hope it has a good theme song. I still have the Magnum PI theme song as the ring tone on my cell phone!

Watched the pilot tonight on DVR. Not too bad! Virtually no theme song, unfortunately, which seems to be a trend in these decadent days.
The police procedural aspect of the show is nothing new. But adding in the family soap opera on top of it all seems to bring a fresh slant. Selleck, as Police Commissioner or Chief or whatever the hell he is, looks like he'll be doing his fighting in the political arena, while Donnie Wahlberg will be the street-brawling, bend-the-rules detective. The other characters look well drawn and well acted, if a bit formulaic.
I'll watch it a few more times before deciding to commit.... or to bail.
Anyone else see it? Anita?.........Jake
