Blue Bloods has been on the air for many years, with the final episodes ready to close out an important chapter of television. Recently, a star on the show dished on how leading man Tom Selleck changed her life. So, what did she have to say?
Blue Bloods Has Been A Television Staple For Years
Blue Bloods is one of the most popular shows on television, and it has been since its very first season. With an all-star cast filling out the ensemble for this generational cop drama, this program is about so much more than catching the bad guys.
Blue Bloods has been a staple in many homes for over a decade. Many families watch it as part of their bonding time, as the family dinner scenes have always been a favorite among fans. With the final episodes closing this chapter, the program has impacted many people along the way, including some of its stars.
Star Abigail Hawk Reveals How Tom Selleck Changed Her Life
A Blue Bloods cast member recently dished on how Tom Selleck changed her life. The industry legend has been in the entertainment business for decades, and it’s clear that he is still having an impact on those that he works with on set.
Recently, Abigail Hawk, who plays Detective Abigail Baker on the show, talked about how the legendary actor changed her life.
According to Hawk, she said: “Seeing his approach to work has taught me an insane amount of lessons. The authenticity that he brings, his absolute need for it to be right, but not perfect; I love that he made Frank Reagan flawed and messy and sometimes a little grumpy and perhaps he has to come to a decision through ways that are not necessarily the straight and narrow, you know, he walks around and dances around it, and it’s just—the humanness of it all and watching this mastercraftsman build what became such a venerable, beloved television character was very exciting for me as a young actor.”
Tom Selleck Influenced More Than Just Acting
In addition to being a veteran voice on the Blue Bloods set to give actors like Abigail Hawk pointers, she also opened up about Tom Selleck as a person and how he carries himself. The way she tells it, the Hollywood leading man influenced more than just her approach to acting, including her off-camera approach to life, too.
Hawk continued: “I’m a very emotional person and any time there would be a hot-button item or something happened in our crazy, crazy world, [Tom] would say, ‘Alright, let’s talk about the facts. What are the facts? Let’s take your feelings out of it; what are the facts?’ And it was very grounding for me as a young mom, as a young actor.”
