A national television show named "Blue Bloods" filmed in Boro Park last month, recording an episode for their show. That episode, named "Men in Black" aired on CBS last Friday night, February 8, 2013.
The show begins with the Grand Rebbe of Tolshen, Rabbi Morganthal lying on his deathbed. Henry Reagan, the former local police commissioner who is a close friend of the Rebbe, pays his respects. The Rebbe shares with Mr. Reagan that he is breaking with Hasidic tradition in asking Levi, his younger son, to be his successor instead of the customary elder son, Jacob, because the former is more suitable. At the funeral of the Rebbe, Levi, the new Grand Rebbe steps into the alley to answer a call on his cell phone and is stabbed to death, compounding the tragedy. The rest of the show focuses on the investigation in finding the killer.
