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.”

Yes I love Blue Bloods! Please dont cancel this show!!!!
I would love a Season 11., 12, 13 and so on. It is the best police show ever on TV.
So many memories of my own family dinners– that no one seems to have any more. Blue Bloods takes me back to those special times. Best heartwarming show on TV. Please keep it coming!
Definitely want season 11. Like idea of two seasons to develop the relationships introduced in season 10 finale that was exceptionally well written & performed. This is a high-quality drama with intelligence, variety, action, empathy and an evident connectedness between cast members. My #1 viewing choice. I feel part of the family.
This is a fantastic show with great storylines and believable acting that takes you right into their lives and keeps you captivated from start to finish. I was very disappointed to hear about a finale of this quality show. Please consider more seasons. With such a large cast storylines could go on and on and would keep me coming back each week.
Please don’t cancel blue bloods. I love this show. I am hoping that there will be many more seasons to come. Especially since they added the newest member to the regan family. I can’t wait to seen how it turns out.
Please please do not cancel Blue Bloods! It’s my favorite series on television…there are only a few series any more worth watching! LOVE LOVE the characters & stories…Tom Selleck has always been one of my favorite actors…he represents solidarity & family! Save Blue Bloods for another couple of seasons! Stay well everyone
Please add two more years to Blue Bloods. It’s a great show with solid story lines. There’s no other show with a better family dinner. We’ve been fans from the beginning.
I’ve seen this show from its beginning and would certainly like it to continue. It’s clean and family oriented.
Yes-my husband and I would love 2 more seasons of Blue Bloods! We are huge fans and have been since the beginning! Please keep it going-there aren’t any shows with a better family dinner!!!
Please carry on with another season I’m a total fan have every season on dvd waiting for season 10 to be released. I guess I’m a compulsive viewer. My days are always starting out with watching blue bloods either on dvd or reruns. It helps me start my day now with a new member of the Reagan family it makes you want to see how he fits in with all the Reagans and if Jamie and Eddie will add to there family would be great
Keep it going. One of the best shows ever.
I will love to have more seasons of Blue Bloods. This is one of my family favorites. The dynamics of the shows, the actors and actresses are great. Let’s work with Season 11.
It is the best show on TV our very favorite
We are loyal to watching Blue Bloods
Of course I want many more seasons of Blue Bloods. It is the only show I truly look forward to anymore. If if doesn’t come back, I may only watch local news. This is one of the few decent dramas left. If it goes, so do I.
