After more than a decade on the air, the beloved police drama Blue Bloods will officially come to an end following its 14th season — a heartfelt development for fans, and especially for series stars Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg.

A Bittersweet Goodbye

CBS has confirmed that Blue Bloods will conclude with its current fourteenth season. The final batch of episodes is scheduled to air in the second half of 2025, bringing a close to a remarkable run that began in 2010.

Tom Selleck, who has portrayed Commissioner Frank Reagan, shared his thoughts in a recent interview:

“Blue Bloods isn’t just a show. It’s family. Saying goodbye won’t be easy, but I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built together.”

Donnie Wahlberg Reflects on the Journey

Donnie Wahlberg, who plays Detective Danny Reagan, echoed the sentiment in a heartfelt social media post, accompanied by a behind-the-scenes photo:

“Thank you for riding with Danny — through every case, every Sunday dinner, every loss and every win. I’m not ready to say goodbye, but I know I’ll carry the Reagan family with me always.”

Wahlberg has been a fan favorite since day one, and his emotional connection to the role was felt strongly by longtime viewers.

Why Is Blue Bloods Ending?

While the series hasn’t suffered a sharp drop in viewership, CBS stated the decision is part of a broader strategy to restructure its programming and production budgets. In an increasingly competitive streaming landscape, sustaining a long-running series with a veteran ensemble is a financial challenge.

Additionally, the age of its core cast — including Tom Selleck, now in his late 70s — contributed to the network’s choice to end the show on a strong and meaningful note.

A Legacy That Will Last

Since its premiere, Blue Bloods has captivated millions with its blend of police procedural storytelling and family-centered values. The Reagan family’s traditional Sunday dinners became an iconic image of integrity, unity, and resilience in law enforcement and family life.

Final Thoughts

The end of Blue Bloods marks the closing of a powerful chapter in television history. For Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg, it’s more than just a final season — it’s a farewell to a family, a world, and a legacy that has touched millions. While the show may be ending, the impact and love from fans will live on.
