CBS' "Blue Bloods" has seen a revolving door of familiar faces coming in and out of the cop drama over the course of 10 seasons, from "Sopranos" star Steve Schirripa becoming a regular cast member in Season 6 to guest stars like Kevin Dillon and Michael Imperioli portraying arcs on a handful of episodes.
One familiar face who was a regular cast member early in the series was Jennifer Esposito, and the actor remains a fan favorite.
Esposito played Detective Jackie Curatola, Danny Reagan's (Donnie Wahlberg) partner, on the drama from 2010 to 2012. Curatola was able to go toe-to-toe with the sometimes aggressive Reagan and call him to task when it was necessary.

Wahlberg, however, has confirmed what many fans likely already knew about the relationship behind the on-screen chemistry between the two fictional partners.
