Joe Reagan’s death has impacted the whole Reagan family since Blue Bloods' premiere, although his death happened before the first episode premiered.
A Fire Commissioner And New District Attorney Are Slated To Appear
Two well-known actresses will joinBlue Bloodsfor its final episode.Mira Sorvino will play the fire commissioner, Veronica Radley, while Debi Mazar will take the role of a new district attorney,Evaline Romano. These characters will interact with Frank and Erin, undoubtedly leading to a lot of drama before the series ends. Mazar is slated to appear in the series' first new episode on October 18, while Sorvino will guest star in November 1’s episode (viaTV Insider).
Debi Mazar also had a recurring role in CBS’East New York, which CBS cancelled in 2023 after only one season despite fan protests.
While Mazar is only expected to appear in one episode, Sorvino will appear in two, suggesting that Radley has a bigger story.HadBlue Bloodscontinued past season 14, it’s likely she would have become a recurring character similar to Mayor Chase(Dylan Walsh), who appears in a limited number of episodes but is almost always a thorn in Frank’s side.
How DA Evaline Romano & Fire Commissioner Veronica Radley Impact The Reagans' Blue Bloods Ending
These Characters Will Interact With Erin And Frank
Sorvino’s character has an interesting role to play. As the Fire Commissioner, Valerie Radley is analogous to Frank, and may have similar issues with Mayor Chase. During her first appearance,she will ask Frank to intervene in a conflict between her and Chase, which will likely be difficult for Frank, considering that he and Chase never get along. Additionally, some of thebestBlue Bloodsepisodesrefer to the rivalry between the fire and police departments, so this request might make things twice as awkward — but romantic sparks could fly for Radley and Frank as the series wraps up.
Erin will undoubtedly resent the district attorney’s accusations, especially considering that Erin has put her career at risk to preserve her integrity before.
Conversely, Mazar’s Evaline Romano will only appear onBlue Bloodsonce. However, Romano’s determination to prove Erin engaged in misconduct could lead to a career change for Erin or a reconsideration of Erin’s previous decision not to run for Manhattan District Attorney herself. Erin will undoubtedly resent the district attorney’s accusations, especially considering that Erin has put her career at risk to preserve her integrity before. This conflict could therefore play into the resolution of Erin’s story as the series heads toward its final episode.
