Tom Selleck Shares Disappointment Over ‘Blue Bloods’ Conclusion as New Series Takes Off
After more than a decade leading Blue Bloods, Tom Selleck is still coming to terms with the show’s ending. The veteran actor, who portrayed NYPD Commissioner Frank Reagan since the series premiered in 2010, recently admitted that watching the franchise continue without the original cast hasn’t been easy.
Selleck described the conclusion of Blue Bloods as bittersweet, noting that the show’s longevity and loyal fan base made the farewell especially difficult. “It’s not a great feeling,” he shared, reflecting on the emotional weight of saying goodbye to a character and ensemble he worked alongside for 14 seasons. For Selleck, the series was more than just another role — it was a defining chapter of his career.
While the original drama has wrapped, a new spinoff set in the same universe has already begun gaining traction. The continuation of the franchise underscores the lasting appeal of the Reagan family’s world, but it also serves as a reminder of the show’s conclusion. Though proud of what the team built, Selleck has been candid about wishing the flagship series could have continued longer.
Still, the actor remains grateful for the experience and the viewers who supported the show throughout its run. As the franchise evolves, Selleck’s legacy as Frank Reagan remains firmly cemented in television history — even if moving on hasn’t been entirely smooth.
