Tom Selleck at his desk in a scene from Blue Bloods
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Blue Bloods is seemingly confirmed to get a spinoff, as the series finale looms. The Tom Selleck-led police procedural centers on the Reagan family and tracks their multi-generational power within the New York City criminal justice system. It has been a consistent ratings performer on broadcast and streaming, which gave viewers and industry observers a fair amount of surprise when the drama was canceled late last year.
The future of Blue Bloods has been marked by uncertainty for some time, and it has been reported that the season 14 renewal came only after difficult negotiations. CBS asked for notable budget cuts, which included actors. The cast and producers agreed to the salary reductions to keep hundreds of crew members and other staff employed. The renewal reportedly came with the knowledge that season 14 would be the last.
Blue Bloods' cancellation follows a trend of shows getting axed, regardless of how well they perform in the ratings. The trend includes The Good Doctor, Station 19, and NCIS: Hawaiʻi. This is generally because long-running shows tend to cost more at a time when networks and studios are both changing their strategies and looking to save money in the face of declining ad revenue and overall lower live viewership.
