Blue Bloods Season 13 has disappointed fans with the surprising shift in the character of Eddie Reagan. Once a favourite character, she now comes off as irritating due to her continual whining to her husband, Jamie. Fans are upset by the writers' decision to let this persist, and draw parallels with Danny Reagan's character. Danny is admired for his 'badass' persona, a stark contrast to Eddie's current annoying role. Fans feel that Eddie should have been made a detective by now, given her knack for investigating and persisting with cases. There has also been speculation that if Baez leaves the series, Eddie could pair up with Danny. Fans are looking forward to the drama this could incite, with potential confrontations about how to treat a partner or risking a spouse's safety. Even though the fanbase is disheartened by Eddie's current trajectory, they continue to hope for a turnaround. They are willing to give the questionable writing another chance, stating that despite the weak writing, Eddie's character is still valuable to the show and deserves a unique storyline.
