Find Out When the Final ‘Blue Bloods’ Episodes Will Air on CBS
The end of Blue Bloods is fast approaching. The final episodes of the CBS cop drama will air this fall, and we have all the details about when the Reagan family will return to TV for the last time.
CBS has canceled ‘Blue Bloods’
Last fall, CBS announced that Blue Bloods would end with its 14th season.
“Blue Bloods will forever be a beloved part of CBS’ legacy. It ruled Friday nights with unprecedented dominance since its premiere and established itself as a pillar of our winning lineup with an exceptionally devoted fan base,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment and David Stapf, president of CBS Studios, when announcing the cancellation. “We’ll be forever grateful to the legendary Leonard Goldberg for developing this signature series and to the amazing cast led by Tom Selleck.”
The final episodes of ‘Blue Bloods’ premiere in October 2024
The final, 18-episode season of Blue Bloods has been split into two parts. The first 10 episodes premiered on Feb. 16, 2024. The mid-season finale aired May 17.
The final eight episodes of Blue Bloods will premiere on Friday, Oct. 18 at 10 p.m. ET on CBS. Episodes also stream live and on-demand on Paramount+.
CBS hasn’t confirmed when the Blue Bloods series finale will air. But it seems likely that the last episode will be broadcast sometime in December 2024.
What happened in the ‘Blue Bloods’ mid-season finale?
So, where did we leave things with the Reagan family in the mid-season finale?
In “The Heart of Saturday Night,” Frank Reagan (Tom Selleck) connected with his father, former NYPD Commissioner Harry Reagan (Len Cariou), who wanted his help getting a widow’s request for benefits from the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund approved. Jamie (Will Estes) and his wife, Eddie Janko-Reagan (Vanessa Ray), unexpectedly ended up spending their five-year anniversary undercover at a corrupt rehab facility. Meanwhile, Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) and Gormley (Robert Clohessy) were keeping an eye on rogue Detective Gus Vanderlip (guest star Aidan Quinn), who was going after those responsible for putting a rapist back on the streets.
What to expect from the last episode of ‘Blue Bloods’
CBS hasn’t released any plot details about the final episodes of Blue Bloods. But showrunner Kevin Wade says fans can expect the show to have a satisfying resolution.
“There won’t be any cliffhangers because there’s no cliff, but it ends,” Wade told TV Insider. “Anything we would do that was an open question would by definition never be answered, so we’re trying to bring character stories to a close in that one. Obviously, we have some stories, some plot, but no, it’s designed as the last one.”
