Traditional
Primary
The show's central thesis explicitly promotes conservative ideology by consistently championing traditional law enforcement, individual responsibility, and strong family values as the primary solutions to societal problems, often implicitly critiquing progressive viewpoints on policing and justice.
Blue Bloods features a predominantly traditional core cast, though it includes visible diversity in its broader ensemble reflecting a diverse urban setting. The narrative generally upholds traditional identities and values, without engaging in explicit critiques or making strong DEI themes central to its storytelling.
Secondary
Blue Bloods includes occasional LGBTQ+ characters, typically in supporting roles or as part of episodic plots. While the show generally treats these characters with respect and addresses issues like hate crimes, their queer identity is usually incidental to the main narrative, neither significantly uplifting nor denigrating, resulting in a neutral overall portrayal.
The series consistently portrays the Reagan family's Catholic faith as a central, positive influence on their lives, values, and moral compass. It emphasizes the importance of family, tradition, and ethical decision-making rooted in their religious beliefs. The narrative frequently depicts faith as a source of strength and guidance for the characters.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Blue Bloods is an original television series, not an adaptation of existing material or a biopic. All characters were created for the show, meaning there is no prior canonical or historical gender to compare against for a gender swap.
