The Tom Selleck-led drama was popular because of its emphasis on the unbreakable bond between members ofBlue Bloods’Reagan family.
He thus pressures Jamie to do so, which only triggers resentment.
The conflict becomes so intense that Jamie is reluctant to come to theReagan family dinners inBlue Bloods.
This arc was undoubtedly influenced byBlue Bloods’Jamie and Eddie getting together romantically.
Thus, it’s understandable that Jamie is promoted.
However, that resolution contradicts his established character while suggesting that Frank’s intense pressure was appropriate.
It always seemed strange to me that Jamie and Frank’s rift was repaired so quickly.
