After 14 successful seasons of family dinners, heartfelt moments, and gripping cases, CBS announced that Blue Bloods will end its run—leaving 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.
“CBS Will Come to Their Senses,” Says Selleck
In a recent interview with CBS News, Tom Selleck opened up about the network’s decision to end Blue Bloods, voicing frustration and disbelief over the cancellation of one of broadcast TV’s top-rated dramas.
“I will continue to think that CBS will come to their senses,” said Selleck. “We’re the third-highest scripted show in all of broadcast. We’re winning the night. All the cast wants to come back.”
Selleck, who has played the stoic and principled NYPD Commissioner Frank Reagan since the show’s premiere in 2010, emphasized that the quality of the show hasn’t declined. In fact, the final season has maintained strong ratings and loyal viewership.
“We aren’t sliding off down a cliff. We’re doing good shows and still holding our place,” he added.
Fans Rally for a Revival
The Blue Bloods fanbase, affectionately known as “Hearties,” isn’t giving up. Social media has erupted with hashtags like #SaveBlueBloods and #BringBackBlueBloods, with fans flooding CBS with letters, tweets, and petitions.
While no official word has come down from CBS on a reversal or renewal, there are hints that the network might be considering other options. Paramount Global executives have floated the idea of a “franchise extension,” which has sparked speculation about a spin-off or even a limited revival.
Selleck Looks to the Future—With Hope
Though saddened by the end, Tom Selleck isn’t closing the book on Blue Bloods—or his acting career. In an interview with Fox News, he shared his continued love for the Western genre and hinted at future roles.
“A good Western’s always on my list. I miss that; I want to sit on a horse again,” he said.
Still, his heart clearly remains with the Reagan family.
“This cast is a family. We love working together. We want to continue telling these stories.”
Final Thoughts
Whether Blue Bloods has truly wrapped up or is simply taking an intermission, one thing is clear—Tom Selleck and the fans aren’t ready to say goodbye. With a cast that still has the passion and a fanbase that refuses to let go, there’s always hope that the Reagan family dinner table might not stay empty for long.
Stay tuned, Hearties—this story might not be over yet.
