Bridget Moynahan Reveals Surprising Secret to ‘Blue Bloods’ Success!
“Blue Bloods” has earned a high audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes and has maintained viewers’ interest for over 250 episodes. Bridget Moynahan, known for her role as Erin Reagan, attributes the show’s longevity and entertainment value to the talented writers behind the scenes.
Despite the abundance of cop shows saturating the market, “Blue Bloods” and the Reagan family dynasty continue to captivate viewers season after season.
While performances are often lauded for the show’s endurance, Moynahan believes that credit should also be given to another essential group associated with the production—the writers.
Moynahan considers “Blue Bloods” fortunate to have such skilled writers. She credits the show’s fresh approach in its eighth season to the writers’ continuous improvement. In March 2017, as “Blue Bloods” reached the milestone of 150 episodes, Moynahan emphasized the writers’ dedication and commitment to generating intelligent ideas and storylines. This dedication has prevented the show from feeling stale after seven years on the air.
Moynahan continues to commend the writing staff of “Blue Bloods,” and their consistent efforts have resulted in the show’s renewal for a 13th season.
With an average of 9.8 million viewers per episode in its Friday night slot on CBS, the series remains one of the most-watched scripted shows, as reported by Variety. Despite the dominance of big-name titles such as “House of the Dragon,” “Stranger Things,” and “The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power,” shows like “Blue Bloods” continue to stand out.
Moynahan suggests that acknowledging the resilient writing is crucial, as it ensures that the crime drama remains relevant and avoids fading into obscurity.
