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?
I really like this show and appreciate the good values that it shares. Sunday dinner with prayer, talking things out, family first are all great reminders of how things should be. Please renew.
Heck yes, it is my favorite show
I definitely would like Blue Bloods to be renewed. I think it is one of the best shows on tv. I like all the characters and how the writers have developed them. How about a love interest for Frank and Danny? Future plot possibilities should carry this show for many seasons to come. PLEASE renew the actors contracts!
Yes, i want seaon 11, One of the best, now that Joe’s son is in the picture, Seaon 11 better come, plus maybe great grand child, #4 might come in the picture.
Yes we need a few more seasons of this great show
No doubt the best show on television. Morally, emotionally and always a kind spirit is evident.
I definitely would like Blue Bloods to continue into the 11th and 12 seasons (at least)!
I have watch Blue Bloods from the beginning I think it is one of the best shows on tv,every show has a good point !
By all means. Yet, more under cover missions have to be made. How about some cross overs with other shows ? The show needs a villain that gets under the Reagan’s skin. Also what about Dany ? And Frank, A romantic endeavor possible ? Concerning cross overs Why not having FBI most wanted, FBI and Blue Bloods together ?
Please continue blue bloods for another season.
Please please continue eith this show…..forever ! SO many more stories just waiting impatiently to be told. We love each character…..they are perfect !
Please continue the only program I look forward to watching each week.
I LOVE Blue Bloods. The acting and story lines. Now days there is so much vulgarity and nakedness. This show is pretty much clean.
I love this show . It has been the best family show put out on TV. I certainly hope there is a way to keep it going as there are different directions to follow if so. The cast is great each and everyone of them.
It is the best show on tv. The writers, the actors everything about it. It always comes full circle in each episode. Thank you so much
