Even after Blue Bloods ended on CBS and its spinoff Boston Blue launched, the franchise is still fueling debate online — with cast reactions, rumors, and passionate fan responses keeping it in the spotlight.
Tom Selleck has been open about his disappointment over the cancellation after 14 seasons, especially given the show’s steady ratings and loyal audience. While rumors of tension with Donnie Wahlberg surfaced around the spinoff, there’s no confirmed fallout, and both actors have continued to speak respectfully about each other and the series.
Selleck has also praised the show’s legacy and the people behind it, while Wahlberg has publicly pushed for a possible Frank Reagan cameo in Boston Blue, saying fans would welcome his return.
Meanwhile, fan communities remain deeply divided. Some viewers feel the series ended at the right time, while others were frustrated by story decisions in the finale and uncertain about the direction of the spinoff. Debates over character arcs, continuity, and whether the franchise should continue are still going strong.
The result: even off the air, Blue Bloods remains a hot topic — driven by nostalgia, unfinished conversations, and a fanbase that isn’t ready to let it go.
