When you are a big star and the series lead, you presumably get treated pretty well with your own trailer and the many other perks of anchoring a TV series like "Blue Bloods." When you are a guest, you most likely get much less in the way of perks and benefits. But that wasn't good enough for Tom Selleck when it came to hosting his long-time friend, as Larry Manetti told Parade that he shared his office dressing room with not just his former co-star but also his wife.
"No other star in a show or a movie does that, and I've been in the business 50 years," Manetti said. "They broke the mold when they made him. We speak without doubt once or twice a week and have since 1978. He's like my brother. He's the most. He's like a sweet bar of chocolate." Selleck showed that brotherly love when he welcomed him with open arms onto the set of his hit TV series and even did the same after the cameras stopped rolling.
On top of treating him well on set, the actor said that Selleck also had dinner with them every night at his favorite Italian restaurant while he was in town. Selleck was not only trying to get Manetti on the series with him but apparently was looking to host him throughout his days in the city while filming his single-episode guest appearance.
