What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the CBS television network, Blue Bloods stars Tom Selleck, Donnie Wahlberg, Bridget Moynahan, Will Estes, Len Cariou, Marisa Ramirez, Vanessa Ray, and Sami Gayle with Whoopi Goldberg, Will Hochman, Eric B., Abigail Hawk, Gregory Jbara, Robert Clohessy, Steven Schirripa, Andrew Terraciano, and Lauren Patten in recurring roles. The show revolves around the Reagans, a multi-generational family of New York City cops that’s dedicated to law enforcement. Patriarch Frank Reagan (Selleck) is the New York Police Commissioner and runs his department as diplomatically as he runs his family. His unapologetically bold father, Henry (Cariou), previously served a stint as Chief. A source of pride and concern for Frank is his eldest son, Danny (Wahlberg), a seasoned detective, family man, an Iraq War vet. Danny sometimes uses dubious tactics to solve cases with his partner, Detective Maria Baez (Ramirez). Frank’s daughter, Erin (Moynahan), is a New York Assistant District Attorney who is also a single parent to her daughter Nicky (Gayle). Frank’s youngest is Jamie (Estes), a Harvard Law graduate and the family’s “golden boy.” He passed on a lucrative future in law and follows in the family footsteps as a cop. Eddie Janko (Ray) is Jamie’s wife and a fellow officer.

Telly’s Take
Will CBS cancel or renew Blue Bloods for season 12? This show has been very successful for the network but all things have to end sometime. I don’t think Blue Bloods will come to a close just yet but, if Selleck decides he’s done, I think the show is too. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

What do you think? Are you glad that the Blue Bloods TV show has been renewed for a 12th season? How would you feel if CBS had cancelled this TV series, instead?
Please, I think – and advise – that your viewers would love to have the flas-back on Linda’s demise; was she “murdered” as it has been averred to several times, or helicopter crash was only thing.
Don’t cancel Bluebloods. PLEASE! it’s the best and ONLY show I watch on network TV. Tom Selleck is whoa
Sure hope the show will not be cancelled. Love watching all the characters!
Please Tom, Please… DONT QUIT YET! I need season 12 with Covid hanging around Love every character on the show, especially Jaime❤️
I love Blue Bloods. I’ve watched all the shows and reruns. I sure hope it continues. I’d love to see the family grow. Hope to see Joe Hill more.
BB is by far the finest show on – consistently excellent acting and writing striking a solid balance with action. It flat out works. Keep it going as long as Tom wants it to. Fine TV is a sadly diminishing art form.
If CBS did not it so difficult to watch their station it would help with the ratings. I’m sure the rating are down proportionally with other shows as well. I’m trying to get CBS all access now which is proving very difficult in my area. I love blue bloods and would be watching it every week if I could
If you can afford it? You can watch it on Amazon Prime. It has all seasons and new episodes. I hope that helps.
I love the show.watch every week. ❤️
I love staying in and watching Blue Bloods on Frridaynight.
Hope to have it renewed
Blue bloods isn’t recording suddenly although it says it’s supposed to be on. I love it. They tackle events from all sides. Has it moved to somewhere else?
why get rid of something, thats not broken ,it staggers the imagination !
Look so forward to “Blue Bloods” every Friday night! Would feel AWFUL if it were cancelled because it’s the only clean, meaningful, inspiring show on TV! Other than “FBI” and “Bull”, those are the only shows we watch. So many others are getting worse and worse with their story lines and their moral messages.
the good dr, chigago fire, 911, and 911 lonestar are great also bull NCIS and NCIS NO.
We really look forward to watching Blue Bloods every week. Hope it is renew soon.
This show is our very favorite, both for the family respect & camaraderie and it’s clean & clear values surely wish it could go on for another 10 years!!! Love it!!!!!!
So true!
