Looks like a familiar face is returning to CBS.
Deadline is reporting that Amy Carlson is returning to CBS, after three years since the Blue Bloods blindsided reveal that her character, Linda Reagan, had been killed off, off-screen.
Carlson is set to be in a recurring role during Season 2 of FBI: Most Wanted as Jackie Ward, a veteran bounty hunter who has previously crossed paths with Julian McMahon's Jess. Jess describes her as "a force of nature" and "good at her job," but a "thorn in the (FBI) team's side."
Since leaving Blue Bloods, Carlson has had roles on NBC's The Village, Netflix's The Society. Her previous TV credits also include Law & Order: Trial by Jury, Third Watch, and Another World.
Also, in addition, Lost alum Terry O'Quinn will recur on FBI Most Wanted as Bryon Lacroix, Jess's divorced father who has "a big personality and a gambling addiction." We did get a couple of stories in Season One about their relationship.
FBI Most Wanted is scheduled to return with Season 2 sometime this early November-ish...
This should be a fun season for Jess Lacroix. I think that the addition of Carlson for this season sounds interesting and exciting. While I'm not a fan of Blue Bloods, I was a fan of her in Third Watch and Law & Order: Trial By Jury. And the addition of O'Quinn should be very good as I just finished watching the first season of Most Wanted and listening to some of Lacroix's stories about his dad sounds something exciting to explore.
