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?
I do hope it is renewed for another season but the last few shows especially April 2 suffered from poor writing.
I enjoy this show very much and would not like to see it canceled. If they rerun please do it 1 thru 20, do not flip around.
Please keep Blue Blood on air. It is my favorite show! The Reagan’s have so many more stories to tell plus another Reagan that hasn’t had a chance to join the family. Please keep the show going.
I want Blue Bloods to return for Season 12
Renew
Love blue bloods I hope it renewed. The best show ever .
Please keep “Blue Bloods” on the air. Like the Reagans, we are a three-generation law enforcement family, that enjoys the series. I have written a letter to the cast, writers, producers, and directors of the “Blue Bloods” Production Team expressing gratitude for all their talent and hard work. The series gives my family so much enjoyment that I found it necessary to do online research attempting to get my letter to the top CBS Executives. It is my desire to share my family background and the lessons the show gives to this law enforcement family. There is nothing more that… Read more »

Keep on air
Please keep it on the air, I love this show, I look forward to watching it every Friday. It’s bad enough when my other favorite shows have been canceled
Please don’t cancel Blue Bloods! It is one of my very favorites and I honestly would hate to see it go!
Please don’t cancel the Blue Bloods. This is my favorite show!!! I want to see more of the new found grandson, more of Jamie and Eddy, and Danny finding a new life as well as Aaron and grandkids.
There’s so much more that needs to be said about this family!!!!
Tom Sellek has said he wants a 2 year deal. He said the are many more Reagan stories to tell. Letting this show go 13(maybe more) seasons puts CBS in a great spot on syndication for this show. Also continues one of their top shows.
I’m a UK resident . I haven’t missed a season yet .I look forward to Monday evening when its aired here in England… If when frank retirement comes round .I can see jamie as police commissioner. Please keep this show going.
Please keep Blue Bloods for more seasons, twelve seasons and plus
