Of course his many roles playing a cop or a P.I. gave him a lot of things to think about.

I enjoy the idea of a Sunday dinner with four generations of family attending. We often had three generations for Sunday dinner at my Grandmother's in the 1940's. As a youngster, you learn a lot from the Aunts and Grandmothers in how to conduct yourself at a nice dinner.

I wonder if those scenes from Blue Bloods of the Sunday dinners are filmed at the house in the picture or on a set. Mostly we see the dining room and kitchen, but it seems to me there are some views of the front entrance and the stairway. It would be lot easier to film on a set in a studio and that's probably where the dinners were held.
