The actress popped up Tuesday night at Manhattan's 92nd Street Y for a discussion about her "Blue Bloods" costar Selleck's new book, "You Never Know: A Memoir" in New York.

Moynahan seemed happy and content as she posed for photogs, and even spoke to a live audience about his book and the recent canceling of their CBS show after 14 seasons.

Kim Kardashian getting booed at Tom Brady's roast came and went in the live broadcast -- and you're not gonna find it again in the current version on the platform ... it's been edited.

Indeed ... the awkward moment from Sunday's show -- where Kim was introduced by Kevin Hart, only to be met by a cascade of boos from the audience as she got to the podium -- no longer exists on the since-posted iteration of the roast.

It's only a few seconds that have been cut out ... now, instead of Kim standing there and shooting a look at the crowd -- with someone onstage telling them to settle down -- it just seamlessly gets into her material ... with KK taking a light-hearted dig at Kevin's height.
