Blue Bloods Is Coming To An End
While The Main Show Is Ending, A Spin-Off Is In Development
Despite its long run and continuous success, the Reagan family story will soon be coming to an end. While there was afan campaign to saveBlue Bloods, it failed to prevent the upcoming finale, though there was ultimately little hope of preserving the show. An exceedingly high budget, given a consistent and large ensemble cast, meant that continuing to produce the show would be a hassle for CBS. New York City filming requirements also meant a rising budget. When combining both expenses, the reality was thatthe show was simply too expensive to continue producing.
Why Jackie Left Blue Bloods In 2012 & What Her Return Means For Season 14
Blue Bloods season 13 brought back Jackie Curatola after her sudden exit from the show, perhaps suggesting that she could return for season 14.
There has been some hope, however. While much of the cast will likely conclude their runs with the show, there is a spin-off in development that should feature some of them. Unfortunately,that spin-off has been slow to develop, with CBS Studios President David Stapf emphasizing that the show is still in its early stages, and as such is still likely years away from production. The cast still remains loyal to the idea ofBlue Bloodsseason 15.S.W.A.T., a similar show, had its cancelation reversed, but it is unlikely to happen here, given that the finale has already been filmed.
Starting a spin-off show will simply be a cheaper prospect for CBS, which is why the network is expected to leave the Tom Selleck-led show behind. The announcement preempted season 14, so that the cast and crew had ample time to prepare an appropriate ending. Season 14, part 2 will run for eight episodes, leaving every major character with the opportunity to say goodbye at some point during the concluding episodes. As well-regarded asBlue Bloodsis, it is officially almost time to say goodbye to another beloved procedural.
