Telly’s Take
Will CBS cancel or renew Blue Bloods for season nine? This Friday night staple has been on the bubble each year. With the current year-to-year ratings declines, I think this could be the year that the Reagan family says goodbye but it probably will survive.

Blue Bloods is the Best Show on TV, that I and my family have watched in many years. I will be very dissapointed to see it end.
Absolutely love Blue Bloods! Please keep it going!! The acting is superb! Lots to be learned from the great stories!! I cried when Eddie and Jamie got engaged!!!
Jamie and Eddie make a good pair hope to see them stay together. Always curious to see if Jack and Erin get back together. Loved Linda sorry to see her go. But now Dannys opened to a relationship i know its too early yet but love filling the Regan dinner table up. Growing families.
Love this show ! Looking forward to season 9. I don’t have cable or dish tv so I watch on Netflix. Love all the cast. For some reason I can watch these episodes over and over again. Thank you . My mom also looks forward to thursdays because of Blue Bloods.
Please do not cancel blue blood it is a great show and also teach and shows everyone that family is always first and most important. There is to many lessons to be learned just from the show
Love the show but I understand why the ratings dropped. We get that the show is about cops, but you need to focus more on their personal lives; this is what viewers want! Frank in particular needs a love interest.
After July 13 episode where a cop got fired for arresting a man for jay walking because he turned out to be an illegal alien I will never watch Blue Bloods again.
This is my favorite show! Please don’t cancel!!!!!
I have watched Blue Bloods on Netflix. It has been one of those I watch over and over. But this season 8 , was the worst that I have ever seem! For one Danny , has never shown , the lost of someone who he have loved for years. Another, the fact of the show are not like it was . It looks as if a whole different bunch of people are writing and directing the show. And know nothing about the last 7 seasons. When taking away a mother, most people would be divistastated . Which is not being… Read more »
Renew for season 9. Love Donnie Walberg!!!
I Love This Show and the Entire Cast. Please, Please do Not Cancel ❤️❤️
Love the show please renew!
I’m glad they renewed I watch it over and over again waiting for the new season to start. I watch it after work
Please renew I love the show and the whole cast
I really “loved” the show – but now it’s just ok. It lost something for me when “Linda” died – she brought something important to the show to keep it from being just another “cop” show. The Sunday dinners are good modeling for family interaction, and she brought a unique perspective that the others do not bring. I miss that real “family” setting. They try now, but it seems hollow and a forced script.
I agree that Linda’s departure was impacting, that could be easily remedied by bringing Jennifer Esposito back as Danny’s love interest. For me it has been the departure from a smart, thoughtful, ensightful program, to the easy route of the current political climate. I watch TV for entertainment, I have my own political views and don’t need a group of staff writers to infiltrate my quiet time.
It’s our favorite series. It would crush us if it does not continue. Love all the actors but Tom selleck absolutely makes the show!!!
