Despite the fact that Blue Bloods ended after 14 seasons final December, the present’s characters are nonetheless very a lot alive, because of the brand new spinoff Boston Blue. Donnie Wahlberg shall be reprising his function as Detective Danny Reagan when the drama hits the 2025 TV schedule, surrounded by a model new forged, however I’ve been questioning in regards to the probabilities of Tom Selleck and different Reagan members of the family showing within the new present, and Wahlberg has some feedback about it.
Contemplating how outspoken Selleck was about Blue Bloods’ cancellation and desirous to proceed taking part in Frank Reagan, it was a shock {that a} spinoff was ordered, and it didn’t embrace him. After all, it’s nonetheless as thrilling as ever figuring out that the sequence will proceed with Boston Blue and Danny Reagan, however what does this imply for the remainder of the household? Wahlberg’s earlier feedback made me optimistic that the Reagan household dinners will proceed, and in a brand new interview with Parade, he’s making me hopeful that the sequence finale isn’t the final we’ve see of them:
New York and Boston are actually shut. They’re not that far aside. I like the best way you requested the query. You lined plenty of attainable methods for folks to drop in on us.
New York Metropolis and Boston are about 5 hours, give or take, so it may very well be pretty simple to get a shock go to from one other Reagan. Whether or not Frank needs to verify in on his son and see how he’s doing in his new place, Erin randomly drops in on her brother, Jamie and Eddie visiting with child Reagan, or possibly they’ll simply seem by way of a video chat. Even when it’s not for lengthy, it feels like there are many potentialities for the Reagans to make an look, no matter Selleck’s reported emotions towards it.
Whereas not a direct spinoff, Boston Blue remains to be within the Blue Bloods universe and can seemingly nonetheless really feel very very similar to the unique present, even with out a lot of the primary forged followers have grown hooked up to during the last 14 years. Wahlberg is aware of how a lot the present means to the followers, and the way necessary it’s to them and lots of others:
Yeah, Blue Bloods is necessary to the viewers, it’s necessary to me, it’s necessary to Sonequa [Martin-Green, Danny’s new partner]. She’s a Blue Bloods fan. She’s my accomplice, and he or she’s a Blue Bloods fan. She needs to maintain that legacy alive, as nicely.
Together with Martin-Inexperienced, the brand new forged of Boston Blue additionally consists of Gloria Reuben, Ernie Hudson, Maggie Lawson, and Marcus Scribner, and certain extra to be introduced quickly. It will likely be onerous to observe a Blue Bloods present with out a lot of the Reagans and with out the famed Reagan household dinners, however there may be nonetheless hope that a few of them shall be returning, and followers shall be getting their household dinners once more, albeit for one episode, in all probability.
Extra data surrounding Boston Blue and potential visitor stars ought to be introduced within the coming months. With the present premiering this fall, it’s solely only a matter of time earlier than an precise premiere date is revealed. For now, all 14 seasons of Blue Bloods are streaming with a Paramount+ subscription.
