Okay, let's talk Blue Bloods. Specifically, that elusive Season 10 Episode 20 air date. Remember that? Felt like forever ago, didn't it?
I'm just going to say it. I think some episodes are overrated. Shhh! Don't tell anyone.
Remembering the Wait for "Family Secrets"
We were all sitting around, waiting. Refreshing our TVs. Checking our DVRs. The anticipation was palpable!
Did anyone else feel like that season dragged a bit? Maybe it was just the *extra* helping of family drama. Though, isn't that the whole point of the show?
And when "Family Secrets" finally arrived? Well, that's another story, isn't it?
Was it Worth the Hype?
Honestly, I have some unpopular opinions about this episode. It wasn't bad, per se.
But was it the *best* episode of Blue Bloods ever? Nah, I don't think so. I know, I know, blasphemy!
Maybe my expectations were too high. All that waiting can do a number on a person.
Plot Thickens (Or Does It?)
I remember the plot involving Erin and a case linked to her past. Intriguing stuff, right?
Donnie Wahlberg as Danny Reagan was great, as always. I like it when he gets all tough-guy detective.
But did it really grab me? Did it keep me on the edge of my seat? I'm not entirely convinced.
The Reagan Family Dinner
Let's be real. The family dinner scenes are why we tune in, right? I think everyone loves Frank Reagan at the head of the table.
These dinners are like comfort food for the soul. Even when they're arguing, there's something so comforting about them.
But sometimes, even comfort food can get a little... predictable. I said it!
My Unpopular Opinion: Underrated Episodes Exist!
I think some episodes get completely overshadowed. Maybe some earlier seasons?
There are gems hidden in the Blue Bloods vault. Episodes with quieter, more subtle storylines.
Episodes that focus on character development instead of explosions and high-speed chases. And, personally, I think those are sometimes better!
The Real Appeal of Blue Bloods
At its heart, Blue Bloods is a show about family. About loyalty. About doing what's right (even when it's hard).
And about eating a lot of delicious-looking food at those Sunday dinners. Seriously, who wouldn't want to be a Reagan for a day?
So, while Season 10 Episode 20 might not be my absolute favorite, it's still part of the larger tapestry that makes Blue Bloods, well, Blue Bloods.
Re-watching and Re-evaluating
Maybe it's time for a re-watch. I might change my mind. Or, you know, I might not.
But I will say I love the series and hope it goes on for many more seasons. Just make sure the next "big episode" lives up to the hype!
After all, a little healthy debate is what makes watching Blue Bloods so fun. Even if I'm the only one who thinks some episodes are just…okay.
