The cast, as seen over 250 episodes and 11-plus seasons (clockwise from center): Selleck, Cariou, Moynahan, Ray, Estes, Ramirez and Wahlberg

Two hundred and fifty episodes is hard to fathom," says Tom Selleck, aka Blue Bloods' NYPD police commissioner and paterfamilias Frank Reagan, about the CBS series' achievement. "I never envisioned that number, but I'm still just as interested in the stories and finding out new stuff about Frank.” So are millions of others, which has kept the cop/family drama's total viewership atop Friday night for a dozen years. As the March 11 milestone hour neared, we asked fans for questions for the actors and executive producer, and the requests poured in. Take a look.

LOVE AND MARRIAGE

Frank's wife has been gone long enough. He needs to have love in his life. Will he?-Merida

SELLECK: I don't know. If you're doing four stories per show, it's difficult, and Frank, being who he is, makes it hard. He's devoted to what he does on the job and to his kids, but he's kind of a man alone. I am happy people want that, though. [Chuckles] Frank is human; he hasn't been completely chaste since he lost his wife. This season, a woman [Alex Kingston] he'd had an encounter with when she was a city of London police commander returned. But Frank's still wearing his wedding ring. Will he ever deal with that?

Could Danny get together with Maggie (Callie Thorne) the psychic? They had a great time at the karaoke bar and she gave him advice about moving on from his late wife, Linda. -Rob Bob

DONNIE WAHLBERG (DET. DANNY REAGAN): I play Danny as being very cautious about who he trusts. The fact that he trusts Maggie so much when others don't says a lot. I think their focus is on helping people, not dating.
