Despite its consistent high viewership, CBS plans to cancel “Blue Bloods” after its 14th season. The procedural drama was the #4 most-watched returning drama and the #8 most-watched series overall for the 2023-2024 season, with 8.4 million viewers. Its success in the 10 o’clock hour makes the network’s decision puzzling for fans.
Viewership is predicted to increase as “Blue Bloods” airs the second half of its final season beginning in October 2024, particularly building up to the season finale in December 2024. However, CBS seems adamant on ending the series. Despite appreciating the show’s success and fondness for its actors and staff, CBS Entertainment President Amy Reisenbach highlighted the importance of refreshing the schedule.
With “Blue Bloods” ending, CBS’s senior scripted series will be reduced to just “NCIS,” which continues beyond Fall 2024. The cancellation aligns with CBS’s strategy to manage expenses and possibly make way for new shows like “Sheriff Country,” a spin-off of “Fire Country,” set for the 2025-2026 TV year.
Though the end of “Blue Bloods” signals the end of a very successful era, the show’s incredible run and high viewership will be remembered.

Why don’t you continue the show on
Paramount + ?
Blue Bloods is truly the only family show that is not full of bad language, nude bodies and sex scenes. I have been a loyal fan of this show since it started. The ending with the family at the dinner table saying grace is what should be brought back to television in more of these types of shows. This brings positive thoughts to the minds of everyone and lets you know there are still good people in this world. Don’t end it because it is still very popular!
