‘Blue Bloods’ season 6, episode 9 preview: First details at upcoming ‘Hold Outs’

Friday night’s “Blue Bloods” may have been polarizing at times to some people out there, but our feeling on it is rather clear: It was beyond a shadow of a doubt the best thing that CBS has given us so far this season. After all, it presented a variety of different narratives that were all compelling in their own way, whether it be Danny and Linda trying to figure out a way to make their marriage work, Frank continues to struggle with protests against the NYPD, and even Jamie and Eddie dealt with tension in their own partnership.

Luckily, next week’s new installment entitled “Hold Outs” is going to feature Jamie and Eddie in a better place. Not only that, but an “NCIS” fan favorite in Diane Neal is going to appear, and you are going to see a stronger story for Erin, whose role was a little quieter in this installment tonight:

“When a homicide case ends in a hung jury, Erin is forced to take over the case from her colleague, ADA Kelly Blake (Diane Neal), and with the help of DA investigator Anthony Abetemarco (Steve Schirripa), find a missing witness. Also, Jamie and Eddie go undercover as an elderly couple to catch a gang that is terrorizing a neighborhood.”

We certainly do not believe that much of what you saw on the show tonight is over by any means. There are probably a wide array of different story threads that are going to be picked up in one form or another soon, and we’re looking forward to diving into them.
