Last season, the ratings for Blue Bloods rose when compared to the previous season. Will they continue to rise or will they fall. Will this CBS show be renewed for a sixth season or will it be cancelled instead? Stay tuned.
Blue Bloods revolves around the Irish-American Reagan family and their work as part of the NYPD. The cast includes Tom Selleck, Donnie Wahlberg, Bridget Moynahan, Will Estes, Len Cariou, Amy Carlson, Sami Gayle, Vanessa Ray, and Marisa Ramirez.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/11 update: Blue Bloods has been renewed for a sixth season on CBS.
Final season averages: 1.29 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 11.29 million total viewers.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.
For comparisons: The fourth season of Blue Bloods averaged a 1.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 11.52 million total viewers.
Note: Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you still like the Blue Bloods TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a sixth season?
My favorite show – I don’t like the fact that it is pre-empted so often for NCAA tournament every year, special programming events, awards shows and other reasons – that could be a factor in viewers losing interest in the program if they have to skip so many weeks!
Love the show, especially Donny, do not cancel
YES, YES, YES!!! This is the only show that 3 generations all watch since day 1… Please renew for season 6!!!
Blue Bloods is an amazing show and our family gets together every Friday
and we enjoy every episode.. Its one of the very few family oriented shows on the air and
it should continue, so that the new generation sees how important the ‘family unit’ is, especially in the crazy times we live in now.. Stay on Blue Bloods!
Definitely renew and add all recent seasons to Nexflix

I really enjoy the show. I like the fact the all the characters have some part. I’m sure the are a few viewers that are bored with the fact that the characters in this show are depicted as having integrity, but people like this really do exist. I have several people I know watching the show on CBS, on Netflix, and other networks, and they enjoy the show. Most adults with any intelligence are sick of the rediculous reality shows, geared to the very young. They are so phoney I channel surf through them. Guess what, people who watch TV… Read more »
