I’ll admit it: I used to dislike Erin Reagan from Blue Bloods. I found her arrogant, rigid, and judgmental, often irritated by her strict adherence to the rules and her belief that she was always right. It seems I’m not alone—many fans feel the same way.
But here’s the twist: Frank embodies those same traits and is admired for his integrity and commitment to doing what he believes is right, regardless of public perception. Talk about a double standard!
In Blue Bloods Season 14 Episode 12, Erin’s similarities to Frank became strikingly clear. She confronted her supervisor, Kimberly Crawford, who prioritizes optics over justice, while Frank was also standing up to Mayor Chase about an ex-cop brandishing a gun for no reason. This episode highlighted how Erin’s fierce determination mirrors Frank’s, challenging the perception that she’s simply a difficult character.
