Boston Blue has quickly become one of the most-watched new series of fall 2025, and CBS has officially renewed the Blue Bloods spinoff for a second season. The network announced the renewal on Wednesday, December 3, alongside its other Friday hit, Sheriff Country—a spinoff of Fire Country.
The series follows Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) as he starts a new chapter in Boston with his son, Sean Reagan (Mika Amonsen). There, they form close ties with the influential Silver family, a powerhouse in Boston law enforcement. Danny also teams up with his new partner, Detective Lena Silver (Sonequa Martin-Green). Six episodes have aired so far, and more are officially on the way.
CBS Entertainment President Amy Reisenbach praised the shows’ early success, saying the renewals highlight the strength of character-driven storytelling, compelling narratives, and standout talent both on screen and behind the scenes.
When will Boston Blue Season 2 premiere?
CBS confirms that Season 2 will debut during the 2026–2027 TV season.
Who’s returning for Season 2?
Along with Wahlberg, Martin-Green, and Amonsen, the cast includes Gloria Reuben, Maggie Lawson, Marcus Scribner, and Ernie Hudson. Blue Bloods favorites Marisa Ramirez and Bridget Moynahan have also made guest appearances, reprising their iconic roles.
Danny Reagan and Maria Baez are now officially a couple, though their long-distance relationship is already facing challenges.
When do new episodes air?
Boston Blue airs Fridays at 10/9c on CBS. The Season 1 midseason finale airs December 19, after which the show will take a break until February 27.
The series premiered on October 17 and has averaged 8 million viewers across platforms, with streaming viewership up 87% compared to Blue Bloods last fall—making it a consistent ratings winner in its time slot.
