When the filming wrapped, the Magnum P.I. actor read Edna St. Vincent Millay’s poem, Love Is Not All. His co-stars got emotional after hearing his rendition, followed by an “enormous amount” of crying and hugging. “Donnie was really broken up; he didn’t say much,” Selleck recalled. “Bridget spoke. Just about everybody said something. Vanessa [Ray] was pretty beat up by the experience.”

With the series finale inching closer to its December release, fans have a lot to look forward to in terms of their favorite characters. According to TV Insider, the final season would show Commissioner Frank Reagan maintaining his leadership of the police department while navigating the ritualistic family Sunday dinners with his father, Henry, a retired police commissioner.

However, the finale doesn’t mean the franchise is closed forever; the creators have been teasing a spin-off of the police procedural drama for quite some time. Although there’s been no confirmation, CBS studio head David Stapf has stated that “there’s still time to figure a spinoff out,” keeping the fans’ hope intact.

The midseason premiere of Blue Bloods will air on October 18 on CBS.
