What’s in store for Blue Bloods? Recently, star Tom Selleck spoke with TVInsider about the future of the CBS TV show and the season 10 finale.
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 (Tom Selleck) leads both the police force and his brood. The cast also includes Donnie Wahlberg, Bridget Moynahan, Will Estes, Len Cariou, Marisa Ramirez, Sami Gayle, and Vanessa Ray.
In the interview, Selleck teased Blue Bloods‘ season 10 finale, which airs on CBS tonight, May 1st, at 10 p.m. ET/PT:
You know me, I don’t like finales when they say someone’s going to die or that it will have a sensational event or bigger explosions. It isn’t any of that, but it is a quintessentially Reagan story; a deeply personal one for Frank, which turns into having an enormous impact on every single Reagan on the show.”
Specifically, Selleck warned fans the finale will be a tearjerker:
I don’t expect a dry eye in the house. I got emotional when I saw a cut of it; so did my wife, who’s seen a working copy of the episode. The impact on everybody is just hugely significant. I think it’s important. Frank’s arcs usually involve a dilemma, but in this case, it’s not just his job. It’s personal and goes to the heart of what Frank has always carried inside of him. The audience really knows our characters, and the story unfolds beautifully.”
And what about season 11? CBShas not yet announced a renewal so what are the chances? Selleck says:
Well, I’m negotiating with CBS about next season. I’d like them to order two seasons. We can do much betters shows if we know where we’re going. This show has lasted because the characters have been allowed to grow and change. The potential is limitless in my opinion. The cast seems to love each other; I sure love them. The actors are doing phenomenal work. Everybody’s very much aware that this is maybe a once in a lifetime opportunity—a show that’s found its way and is welcomed by an audience. I’m ready to go back when it’s okay to start again.”
What do you think? Do you watch Blue Bloods? Do you want an 11th season?
Please do not cancel Blue bloods, let Tom have his way. You will not lose money for the next two years. And Cbs should know that. You should have no qualms of having Blue Bloods on once a week. You do have a great cast for bluebloods they all look like they get along and having a good time plus working there incredible well together and they teach manners two kids and also some right and wrong, it’s a good show for everybody sometimes a little bloody but that’s OK it’s actually like what the world is really like four… Read more »

This is our all time favorite TV show. We can’t say enough good about it. Sure hope Mr. Selleck gets 2 seasons, 22 would be better!
My husband and I watch Blue Bloods every Friday. The chemistry between cast members is flawless. The introduction of a new family scenario has created immense interest.The situational scenarios parallel real time events. Yes Two more seasons for us ❤️
I love Blue Bloods!! What a superb episode.. not unlike all
the others! The best program I’ve ever seen. I cried my heart out and appreciated the poignant moments that the actors were able to bring to us . Incredible acting , writing and directing.
My gratitude to everyone who make Blue Bloods possible.
Blue Bloods is an awesome show like others have said
the characters really make an huge impact on what a family is suppose to be. We look forward each week to working thru another issue that faces the Reagans. Tonight’s show was definitely a tear jerker it cannot end now Joe’s son is now in the picture. Please have several more seasons to come, it would be a tragedy to lose this show & have another stupid comedy.
Please bring #Blue Bloods back for season 11, 12, and many more! Our family loves the Reagans. There is so much deep family ties that many families can relate too.
Just finished season 10…..O….M….G!!!!!! Bawling! Please please please give us a season 11 and 12….at least. My absolute favorite show on t.v. now. The Reagans are my family. Love them all.
In my opinion Bluebloods is the best show on television. It is about family and our society needs more tv shows depicting families who truly care about each other while at the same time having their differences.
Tom Selleck is an outstanding actor and he is surrounded by strong cast members who are all excellent in their roles. A two season contract would make fans of Bluebloods very happy and I sincerely hope this happens.
I love this show and definitely would like a season 11.
Fantastic season finale!! My husband from NY and Italian has enjoyed this show more than I can possibly express. We look forward to every episode. I’d love him to have opportunity to acutely be there on set to view a taping. Great work to all
Best regulars

I have watched Blue Bloods since the first program aired in 2010. I love the program and I love the Reagan family and storylines. I just finished watching the last program of the season and was thrilled that the family got to meet Joe’s son. He really seems like one of the Reagan family. It must be genetics. I’m really looking forward to seeing them this coming year for at least for a few more years. Thank you for this quality show.
Blue Bloods is the highlight of my TV WEEK. Now if Jack, Sean or Niki go to the academy things would be perfect.
