Get ready for more of those big Reagan family dinners. CBS has renewed Blue Bloods for a sixth season.
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.
A cornerstone of the CBS schedule on Friday nights, Blue Bloods has been down slightly in season five. The show’s been averaging a 1.29 rating in the 18-49 demographic (down 8%) but is averaging a whopping 11.29 million viewers, consistently making it the most-watched show on network television on Friday nights.
What do you think? Do you still like the Blue Bloods TV show? How long do you think this series can realistically run? Should next season be the last?
Best show on TV
11.3 million viewers for Blue Bloods per episode!! Yet CBS thought the show was on the bubble to be renewed? Yeah, I know, only the 18 -50 demo counts. When are the folks who run the networks realize it’s a new era. Longmire was renewed by Netflix (after being cancelled by A&E) because it was popular with PEOPLE (not just young ones). Longmire could bring in new subscribers to their service. People over 50 in this era have more disposable income than the elite younger demo. IMO, the networks (and marketers) need to rethink their business models.
Only recurring show I watch consistently on TV. It has a terrific ensenble cast, excellent writing and (as an exNYer) true gritty plotlines.
By far the best show on TV
BEST SHOW ON TV, HANDS DOWN! Most fulfilling, best message, most family friendly, law enforcement supportive, excellent writing/scripts, superb acting turned in consistently by both veteran, rookie and extras Actors, outstanding cinematography and very timely, interesting plots. Just love this show which gets better every week as it stays on message and is never in danger of “jumping the shark.”
This is one of my all time favorite shows. I even watch the re-runs over and over.
This is a great show and happy it is getting a 6th Season, sad when season 5 ended.
Yeah to another season of “Blue Bloods” and Tom Selleck! ! I agree with all the other posts. It has everything a great show should have. We need more shows like “Blue Bloods” on network TV. This is the only show that my 87 year old Mom and my babyboomer husband and I watch together. Hope there will be many more seasons to come.
We love this show! It is well written, thought provoking, and poignant. We look forward too many, many more episodes.
I love the show , We get it here across the pond literally a few days later.
I am glad CBS are renewing, gets really annoying when they pull a show when some 18-25 year old doesn’t watch. when I was 18-25 I was out enjoying myself most nights not stuck in the house watching tv… what happens in America if your 49.5 don’t you count any more…? I would imagine you get a lot more 30/40/50 somethings watch this type of show..
I love this show! Tom sellick is my favorite!
I love Blue Bloods and was angry at CBS for not renewing when they renewed NCIS. I am glad that it has been renewed. Next time CBS don’t string us along.
My favorite show ever,
I was holding my breath waiting for news of renewal of Blue Bloods- soooo glad it has been. This is an intelligent show about a tight-knit family that supports and encourages each other even when they don’t necessarily share the same view/opinion. They show integrity and compassion, as well as passion for their jobs. I look forward to MANY more nights around the 4-generation Reagan family dinner table, AND, riveting street action and courtroom drama. Thanks to CBS for having the GOOD SENSE to renew this highly underrated and overlooked show. They need to get some recognition and awards. I… Read more »
