After 14 successful seasons of family dinners, heartfelt moments, and gripping cases, CBS announced that Blue Bloods will end its runโleaving fans stunned and disappointed. But now, series star Tom Selleck is breaking his silence, and he’s not ready to close the door just yet.
โCBS Will Come to Their Senses,โ Says Selleck
In a recent interview with CBS News, Tom Selleck opened up about the networkโs decision to end Blue Bloods, voicing frustration and disbelief over the cancellation of one of broadcast TVโs top-rated dramas.
“I will continue to think that CBS will come to their senses,” said Selleck. “Weโre the third-highest scripted show in all of broadcast. Weโre winning the night. All the cast wants to come back.”
Selleck, who has played the stoic and principled NYPD Commissioner Frank Reagan since the showโs premiere in 2010, emphasized that the quality of the show hasnโt declined. In fact, the final season has maintained strong ratings and loyal viewership.
โWe arenโt sliding off down a cliff. Weโre doing good shows and still holding our place,โ he added.
