‘Blue Bloods’ News: Thailand Prime Minister Says Show Could Help Solve Terrorist Attack
In what appears to be a nod for authenticity on the show, "Blue Bloods" has an admirer in a high place in Thailand, who suggested using the show as a way to solve the Bangkok bombing incident.
The Sydney Morning Herald reports that Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha suggested to the media that police and investigators should watch the series to help them understand how to catch those responsible.
"Police investigators, especially the national police chiefs, should watch this series," Chan-ocha said to the media. "They will get tips, ideas and insights into their case."
For those few people who do not know, "Blue Bloods" is about a New York family who are heavily involved with the criminal justice system in the bustling metropolis city.
The family is headed by patriarch Frank Reagan, portrayed on-screen by TV legend Tom Selleck. He is the police commissioner and New Kids on the Block star Donnie Wahlberg plays his son Danny, who is a tough as nails, get-the-job-done kind of cop.
The bombing incident that took place in Bangkok hit the Erawan Hindu shrine and killed 20 people, injuring 120 others. The incident took place on Monday evening, and the national government has been making statements that conflict with the local police reports on the matter.
The government does think that the masterminds behind the bombing were international terrorists. The police, however, have identified their main suspect, who they say planted the bomb, working in collusion with at least ten other people.
As for season 6 of the hit show "Blue Bloods," the season is expected to open up with a bang when Danny Reagan gets personally involved with a serial killer, who seems to have a bone to pick with him for some reason. Season 6 is expected to premiere on the CBS network this fall on Sept. 25.
