The cast has complained, fans have protested, and industry observers have expressed bafflement at the decision, but as much as we might not like it, Blue Bloods is coming to an end.
That’s the bad news.
The good news is that the show is going out in style with one of its strongest seasons to date. And now, we have new information about how it will all come to an end.
CBS announced today that the show’s final episode will air on Friday, December 13.
Ahead of that sad date, the network will air an hourlong retrospective special titled Blue Bloods: Celebrating a Family Legacy, on Friday, November 29.

“This one-hour ET news special, celebrating 293 episodes of BLUE BLOODS, includes new exclusive interviews with the stars and recurring guest stars who share favorite memories and behind-the-scenes moments from the past 14 years,” reads a press release issued today.
“Hosted by ET’s Nischelle Turner and featuring archival interviews from the ET vault, the special serves as a love letter to the loyal fans who had dinner with the Reagan family every Friday night and upheld BLUE BLOODS as one of the top series on television.”
In a segment that’s sure to delight fans, the special will delve into the stories behind the Reagans’ famous family meals.
“Included in the show is a rare look inside the famous family dinner scene, where viewers learn family dinner secrets straight from the Reagans’ table.
“The special reveals new details about the first time the cast had family dinner during the pilot when they were strangers, and how that transformed the series into the global phenomenon it is today.
“Also, fans hear first-hand from the cast about what it is like filming on the streets of New York City and get a sneak peek at the emotional finale prior to the series send-off.”
Obviously, fans would prefer a surprise announcement that CBS has decided to renew the show.
But since that’s probably not happening, a send-off special will have to suffice.
Hey, at least we have a possible Blue Bloods spinoff to look forward to!
