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.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated charts, please try reloading the page. You can also see them here.
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?
Hey!!! I am 63 years old along with my 64 year old Irish husband. Blue Bloods bring back the days of sitting together after a hard day of work. In our case a hard day of (sometimes racial tension and advirsity) Being I am of German/Mexican heritage. But we have always regarded “FAMILY COMES FIRST!!!”. Please keep this show going!!!

“BLUE BLOODS” IS OUR FAMILY’S FAVORITE TV SHOW. WE LOOK FORWARD TO WATCHING IT EVERY WEEK; PLUS, WE NOW ALSO WATCH THE RERUNS WHICH ARE AIRED ON CHANNELS OTHER THAN CBS. -PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL THIS GREAT & MULTI-FACITED PROGRAM. THE STORYLINES ARE ALWAYS INTERESTING, THERE ARE MORALS TO THE STORIES & TO THE INTERACTION BETWEEN THE REAGAN FAMILY MEMBERS WHO ALWAYS EXHIBIT SUPPORT & LOVE EVEN THROUGH DISAGREEMENTS & CONFLICT OF IDEAS, ETC.. THE STORIES, ALSO, EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ABOUT THE EXTREME STRESS & RESPONSIBILITIES POLICE OFFICERS & ADA’S MUST DEAL WITH & ENDURE.
Beverly, yours was probably a thoughtful and insightful comment but I couldn’t read it all, it hurts to read ALL CAPS. Please use CAPS sparingly, as an emphasis on a few words perhaps, but not a LONG comment such as yours (as in my response for example). It takes away from your intent. That said, I sure hope Blue Bloods is renewed.
One of the best shows on TV, great cast, great stories and the New York location shots are spot on. Please keep it going CBS, TV drama doesn’t get any better than this.
Tom Selek you do a great job, commendations to all those who put the show together. Well done, keep doing it.
Blue Bloods is one of my favorite shows. I make sure I am hime to watch it every week. I watch all the reruns too.
Love the show!!!! DON’T CANCEL……….
Blue Bloods is one of the best shows on tv. It shows all sides of police work. It needs to be renewed for season 6.
Hi Connie,
could not have said it better!!! Kuddos
PLease renew for upcoming season — best show on TV
Please renew! It’s the only CBS show I watch. Good stories, great cast!
We love this show! Of ALL the ‘police’ shows on TV, this is the best written, most ‘real’ feeing, and most engaging. We just wish it wasn’t on Friday night, when we often have other plans (yes, we could record, but we don’t bother). But the reruns are there on other evenings.
Liberal CBS probably told to dump probably one of the best on tv.
This show is a keeper for the long haul. I go to unusual ends to catch it while traveling. It is great to be so well balanced in content and characters and gives us a feeling of participation in its situations.
