Len Cariou, the beloved 84-year-old actor who brings Henry Reagan to life on Blue Bloods, continues to impress fans both on and off the screen. Known for his wisdom and warmth as the Reagan family patriarch, he recently shared exciting news that has left fans both surprised and inspired.

In a recent interview, Len revealed that he is working on a memoir, offering an intimate glimpse into his life, career, and the lessons he has learned along the way. Set for release next year, the book will explore his Broadway roots, iconic roles, and his time on Blue Bloods. “I’ve been blessed with an extraordinary career and life, and I want to share the experiences that shaped me,” he shared.

The announcement has generated widespread excitement, with fans eager to read his story and gain insight into his decades-long journey in the entertainment industry. Social media buzzed with messages of support, as many view Len as a guiding figure—both in his real life and through his Blue Bloods character.

Beyond his acting legacy, Len’s decision to share his story highlights his deep appreciation for his craft and his desire to inspire others. As he continues to shine on-screen, his fans are reminded that true greatness isn’t just about talent—it’s about leaving a lasting impact.

Tom Selleck has appeared in every episode of Blue Bloods, making it difficult to pinpoint just one favorite. However, he recently revealed the episode that resonated with him the most over the past 12 seasons.

While fan-favorite episodes like The Blue Templar and This Way Out often come to mind, Selleck’s personal pick was more grounded and deeply revealing about his character, Frank Reagan. In an interview with TV Insider, he named The Job—the 12th episode of Season 2—as his favorite.

This powerful episode focuses on Frank as he learns that an old partner is dying from a 9/11-related illness. It also marks the first time viewers discover that Frank was in the North Tower on that tragic day, a revelation that had never been mentioned before.

Selleck was particularly moved by the way the episode handled its sensitive subject matter. “[It was] still fresh in people’s minds,” he reflected. “The episode winds up dealing with the people who got sick from being there at the time. We were the first show allowed to show the Trade Center Memorial right after it was finished.”

Filming alongside F. Murray Abraham, who played Frank’s dying partner, was one of the most emotionally challenging experiences of Selleck’s career. “It was hard for me to be strong as an actor, not to break down because Frank is tougher than that,” he admitted.

In the end, Frank’s partner passes away, leaving him to grapple with survivor’s guilt. It remains one of the most sobering episodes in Blue Bloods history, and given its emotional depth and historical significance, it’s clear why it left such a lasting impact on Selleck.
