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?
Yes I watch BlueBloods & it was my Father in laws really only TV show he watched at age 95! We lost him less than a year ago! He would want at least the 2 seasons discussed in the article as would I!! Dad would always watch the BlueBloods marathons on Saturday’s!! Yes, our vote is for many more seasons of the best Family Show on television!!
Please keep Blue Bloods on to season 11, 12, 13, – I love this show so much and all the actors are marvelous. Tom Selleck can not be any better. What a great actor and show.

Love, Love, Love Blue Bloods! Best show on TV! Please re-new for years to come, viewer for life! ❤
Yes! Keep the show going.
Absolutely my favorite show on TV! I watch every rerun over and over! I bet I can win any game show on Blue Bloods trivia!! Please, please, please renew it for 2 seasons like Tom asked! If it’s cancelled I may never watch another CBS show! They’ve already cancelled my second favorite, Criminal Minds!
Bring it on. Seasons 11 &12 would be an excellent idea. Love the show & the cast.
Blue Bloods definitely has to continue — the season finale opened up a whole new storyline and I’m sure we all want to see how it plays out. One of my favourite shows!
Best show on TV! Love the family dinners and family dynamics! Family traditions and all! Can’t cancel it!
We LOVE Blue Bloods. It’s one of the best shows on television.
We LOVE Blue Bloods! It’s one of the best shows on television.
Best show on TV. We will be very sad if not renewed. Like it so much we bought Seasons 1-7 as DVD sets.
Blue Bloods is one of those rare series that will live forever! To cancel the series, it seems to me, makes no sense. I can’t imagine they have any difficulty with sponsorship. I eagerly look forward to each new show!!!
One of our favorite shows. Yes for 2 or more seasons. Please keep it coming!
