Tom Selleck Is Right About Blue Bloods Ending

Lead actor Tom Selleck’s frustration over CBS’ cancelation of Blue Bloods is justified. When CBS decided to cancel the long-running police and family drama after 14 seasons, it sparked a massive fan-led protest to save Blue Bloods. However, that failed to move the needle with CBS executives; similarly, the enthusiasm for another season by cast members such as Selleck, Donnie Wahlberg, and Gregory Jbara did not convince CBS to give Blue Bloods a reprieve.
Blue Bloods’ final season was split into two parts, with the first half airing in the spring of 2024 and the second half set to begin on October 18, 2024. The long hiatus between the two halves of the season gave Selleck and other stars time to try to convince CBS to extend the order to a full season, but unfortunately, this did not materialize, although the network did suggest that a spinoff might be in the works. Thus, Blue Bloods has only eight episodes left until it leaves the airwaves permanently.
