Tom Selleck Opens Up About Cancellation of *Blue Bloods*

In a heartfelt revelation, Tom Selleck, the beloved star of CBS's *Blue Bloods*, has opened up about his disappointment regarding the show's cancellation after an impressive 14-year run. The actor, who has played NYPD Commissioner Frank Reagan, expressed his frustration during an interview with *TV Insider*, emphasizing that the series was often overlooked despite its sustained success.

Selleck lamented the decision of CBS, saying, "During those last eight shows, I didn’t want to talk about an ending for Blue Bloods, but rather about it still being wildly successful." He highlighted that even in its final season, the show maintained a prominent position in the ratings, ranking #6 among other top programs, discounting the football shows that typically dominate the landscape.

The seasoned actor reflected on the inexplicable choice to cancel a show that had guaranteed viewership and success for the network over the years. "If you were to say to the television network, 'Here’s a show you can program in the worst time slot you got, and it is going to guarantee you winning Friday night for the next 15 years,’ it would be almost impossible to believe," Selleck stated. His candid remarks reveal a deep sense of grievance, feeling that *Blue Bloods* was consistently taken for granted.
