The Reagan family dinners will continue. CBS has made a new deal with Tom Selleck and has renewed their Friday night drama, Blue Bloods, for a 10th season. In Fall 2019, the show will celebrate its 200th installment with its 10th season premiere.
A CBS police procedural, Blue Bloods stars Selleck, Donnie Wahlberg, Bridget Moynahan, Will Estes, Len Cariou, Marisa Ramirez, Sami Gayle, and Vanessa Ray. The family drama centers on the Irish-American Reagans, a multi-generational clan of cops dedicated to New York City law enforcement. New York Police Commissioner Frank Reagan (Selleck) leads both the police force and his brood.

What do you think? Are you still watching the Blue Bloods TV show? How long do you think this CBS series should continue?
I have watched the show for all 1o years and enjoy the rerun marathons. I think as long as Tom Selleck wants to participate keep them coming.

Love this show. My favorite. Keep it running.
We NEVER know when to expect a full season of Blue Bloods! Just seems so random. What is a season anyway? 3 – 4 episodes? We love this show.
This is my favorite show. Please keep it on TV. I enjoy the family interaction and of course who wouldn’t enjoy the family dinners.
My husband and I have watched Blue Bloods every Friday night for years and have totally enjoy it. We look forward to Friday nights just to watch Blue Bloods!!!!! I love every character on the show. One thing…get Danny a woman!!! LOL
Our family has enjoyed watching Blue Bloods since it started, despite Jamie’s partner wearing false eyelashes to work daily street patrol as a police officer. I worked 30 years as police officer in metro city before retiring. Stories seemed better written about real life issues of police families the first few years. Hopefully the shows go back to being more realistic and forget trying to have females in show appear pretty, etc.
Thank you for Season 10. Enjoy this show very much.
Time to bring this ridiculous show to an end. Writing sucks, and the acting is utterly awful. Let Tom sit on his porch, inhale and exhale through his stopped up nose, and watch his avocados grow. Just when I think the show can’t get any worse, it does. Time to put it and us out of our misery. Please!
Blue Bloods is a quality program, and we have been watching it because of the acting and stories.
Highlights within each episode interactions between central personalities in a positive, respectful way, along with an interesting story. Especially appreciate the focus on family values.
My family and I truly enjoy the show. We love the family dinner. We love the moral code of the family they play. I hope to see it back on.
I have continued to be a faithful watcher of Blue Bloods. BUT if you kick Tom off the show I will leave the show too
