In the Season 11 premiere of “Blue Bloods,” Whoopi Goldberg reprised her role as City Council Speaker Regina Thomas, challenging the NYPD on corruption and sparking a debate on police reform with Frank Reagan (Tom Selleck). Although the episode addressed the Defund the Police movement, showrunner Kevin Wade revealed there are no immediate plans for Goldberg’s return due to a shortened season. However, the show plans to continue exploring racial and political themes, including the promotion of a Black female character to acting district attorney over Erin Reagan. Goldberg has appeared on “Blue Bloods” twice before, marking a complex relationship between her character and Frank over police policy differences. The future of Goldberg’s character remains uncertain as the show progresses without her for now.
