The recently confirmed Blue Bloods sequel seems poised to undo a perfect wrap-up for one of its most popular characters. The Tom Selleck-led police and family drama was canceled after season 14 despite a massive fan-led protest to save it. Many of the stars were also vocal about wanting the series to continue. However, CBS held firm to its decision, though the network did hint at the possibility of a Blue Bloods spinoff series.
In the meantime, Blue Bloods’ series finale raised questions about many characters’ futures, including Danny Reagan’s (Donnie Wahlberg). Danny realized during the finale that he missed having a partner to come home to after difficult missions. Thus, six years after Linda’s (Amy Carlson) death, Danny decided to get back into dating, and he asked Baez to have pizza with him. This ending implied that Danny and Baez would finally have a shot at a relationship, although it was unclear whether it would work out.

The Blue Bloods sequel, titled Boston Blue, focuses on Danny’s new life after he moves to Beantown. So far, there is no information about why he decides to move to a new city to work for a different police department. This move seems strange, considering that Danny’s close-knit family all live in New York. However, it keeps one of Blue Bloods’ best characters central to the action of the new series.
Once Danny moves to Boston, he will work with a new partner, presumably on homicide cases. Reportedly, his new partner comes from a prominent Boston police family. Thus, it is likely that Boston Blue will try to recreate the excitement and interest in Blue Bloods’ Reagan family by introducing this new tight-knit clan of law enforcement officers. It’s unclear yet how closely Danny will interact with this family or what interactions he will have with his own.

There Is No Mention So Far Of Baez Joining Him

While fans are eagerly anticipating Boston Blue, the upcoming Blue Bloods spinoff also seems to be quietly confirming something many had hoped wouldn’t happen: the romantic relationship between Danny Reagan and Maria Baez may have quietly come to an end. Though the series hasn’t offered much in the way of official detail yet, one thing seems telling there’s been no mention of Marisa Ramirez’s Baez joining Donnie Wahlberg’s Danny in Boston. And that silence speaks volumes.
