What will be the plot of Blue Bloods Season 12
If we look into each season, every episode has a portrayal of a new crime and the Reagan family tries to figure out the mystery and solve the case. With this, their family drama was also building up. At the end of the 11 seasons, we can see that another unknown family member of the Reagan family existed and no one knows about it. As the story develops it’s revealed that he is none other than Joe Hill who is the son of late Joe Reagan. The Reagan family rescued him from the criminals as he was also an undercover agent and in the end, you can see they accepted him into their family.
The plot and storyline of Blue Bloods Season 12 are predicted to start where the 11 season ends. As nothing is announced yet and not confirmed what will be the next season comes with but one is sure, the work for the Reagans is famous for – the brilliant service in the police department will surely be there. As the new member joins the family – Joe Hill, so we can presume that the next content will be more on joe. In the last season, we also get to know about the tension and problems between the Reagans and the trustworthy people of frank, so hopefully, this scene would also conclude positively.
In an interview with Deadline, they were asked about Blue Bloods Season 12, what will happen? Kevin Wade the showrunner said that after receiving good feedback from the audience and they liked this show, the expectations are now high so they have to come back with a great story and content and give their best. But for now, you can expect that the next season will be more exciting to watch with good crime cases, mysteries. Surely it will be more thrilling with good action sequences and last not but not least it will have more drama.
Season 11 revolved around social-political issues like the rights of transgenders, and the brutality of the police, etc can be seen. The police department was in the eyes of everyone and even many of them are captured in the spy camera while abusing their powers, there’s plenty of real-life material for Blue Bloods. So we can expect more things like these in the Blue Bloods Season 12.
