Set in Stone: Jesse Stone Movies Ranked
By Darlene Cah
From private investigator, Thomas Magnum, to Jesse Stone, to Police Commissioner Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods, fans love Tom Selleck on the streets and on the job, seeking justice and doing the right thing. With Jesse Stone, Selleck brings us a different kind of cop, one with baggage and inner demons to fight, as he hunts ruthless criminals in the small, coastal hamlet of Paradise, Massachusetts. He’s emotional, empathetic, authentic, and at the same time tough, brave and determined. Don’t get us wrong, we love those car-screeching, fence-jumping, heart-racing chase scenes, too, but spending time with Jesse Stone makes us feel like we’re on the case, deciphering clues with him. All five of the movies airing on INSP are exciting, entertaining and thought-provoking. How would you rank them?
