‘Blue Bloods’ Stars Donnie Wahlberg and Bridget Moynahan Are ‘Upset and Sad’ Ahead of Series’ Final Season

The CBS procedural's 14th and final season premieres on Friday night.

Blue Bloods stars Donnie Wahlberg and Bridget Moynahan appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show Tuesday (via People) to discuss the final season of CBS’ juggernaut police procedural, which is about to embark upon its 14th and final season.

After Barrymore asked the actors if they felt "happy and satiated" with the show’s massively successful run, Moynahan reported she was feeling “more upset and sad” facing the prospect of no longer working with the crew that’s become their family.

"I think it's more saying goodbye to the people behind the characters," Moynahan said. "We've created such a family on set with each other and the crew—most of the crew's been with us for 14 years, so we've been through a lot of weddings, births, deaths, and everything. We've been through it all with each other."

Moynahan went on to praise Wahlberg, calling him her “biggest supporter” on the set. She went on to explain how Wahlberg went to bat for her when executives behind the scenes doubted that Moynahan had the chops to direct an episode of the final season.
