My Aim Is True

The ending . . completely unexpected, but expected!

Absolutely loved this episode...and all seasons. This one left me smiling and feeling euphoric. Tom Selleck the leader of this fabulous show, integrity, respect, honesty and most of all love. Kudos to all. Thank you.

No spoiler here. As cops show go, Blue Bloods remains near the top of the heap. The entire Reagan family is involved in this episode and someone is killing off innocent New Yorkers and it is up to Danny and and his partner Baez to figure out the who, what and why these innocent people are being targeted. Much gets discussed around the Reagan family dinner table and this episode is no different. One of the Reagan clan while feasting on the weekly family dinner makes a revelation as to who may be responsible for the string of assassinations and more importantly provides the answer as to "why" these assassinations may be taking place.

This is the season 8 finale and we are left with a cliffhanger as police chief Reagan's youngest son Jamie and his devoted partner Eddie are starting their daily shift. As they proceed to drive away in their assigned police cruiser from the police station the audience observes they are being followed by a black sedan. Will something happen? Well in fact, lots does happen and the season 8 finale is a doozy you won't want to miss if you are a true Blue Bloods fan like Mrs. Shullivan and I are.

It is a fine episode deserving of a 9 out of 10 rating.

If you've been following this show from the beginning, like I have, you probably enjoy it for the relationship dynamics, the interactions, and the sense of family. The investigations, the politics, and the other nuances supplement and compliment the before-mentioned.

Tom Selleck was the one who requested that the "family dinner" be added in order to give the show that sense and strength in family. This turned out to be a masterful stroke, as some of the show's deepest, touching, and most poignant discussions have occurred in these short scenes.

Therefore, it makes it all the more profound and apt that what happens at the end of this season finale, also happen at the family dinner table.

Danny, Erin, Frank, and Jamie are all connected in investigating a series of drive-by shootings that are all connected to a past case at the beginning of Frank's tour as PC. When it becomes clear as to who is behind it, and why, one of the Reagans's life will be put in danger. We already lost Linda, and now we had to wonder if we might lose another member of the family.

The chemistry between these actors is powerful, and it is the driving force of this show. Danny and his partner, Frank and his staff, and Jamie and Eddie, the family connections, notwithstanding.

For any true Blue Bloods fan, this season finale episode was arguably the best one yet!

Yet another fantastic Blue Bloods episode and season finale. As one of the other reviewers wrote... something probably all Blue Bloods fanatics have been waiting for - for what seems forever - finally happens.

Even though I should be sad that's it's the end of another season, I'm not, the episode closed and I have the biggest smile on my face. Roll on season 9!
