**Farewell to Fan Favorites: 30 TV Series Ending in 2024, Including ‘Blue Bloods’ and ‘Yellowstone’**
As we navigate through 2024, it’s not just a year of exciting new and returning series, but also one of goodbyes to several beloved shows. Despite the industry’s recent upheavals with the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes now resolved, many popular series are wrapping up their stories this year.
Netflix and CBS are leading the way with the highest number of series ending. Netflix will bid farewell to nine shows, while CBS will see four of its long-running series conclude. Here’s a closer look at some of the notable shows ending in 2024, including fan favorites and critical hits.
**Blue Bloods Bids Adieu**
CBS’s flagship police drama, *Blue Bloods*, is coming to a close after an impressive run. The series, which has been a staple of CBS’s lineup for over a decade, will end with its 14th season. This final season will be divided into two parts, totaling 18 episodes.
The first part of Season 14 is set to premiere on Friday, February 16, at 10 p.m. EST. The second part, comprising eight additional episodes, will follow in the fall of 2024. Starring Tom Selleck, Donnie Wahlberg, Will Estes, Bridget Moynahan, and Vanessa Ray, *Blue Bloods* has been lauded for its portrayal of a family of law enforcement officers grappling with personal and professional challenges.
**Station 19’s Final Call**
Another significant farewell is to ABC’s *Station 19*, the firefighter spinoff of *Grey’s Anatomy*. The show, which has enjoyed a solid run, will conclude with its seventh season in 2024. The season will consist of only 10 episodes, a change from previous seasons.
Executive producer Shonda Rhimes took to Instagram to reflect on the show’s journey, expressing gratitude to the talented cast and devoted viewers. “Grateful for an unforgettable run,” Rhimes wrote. “A heartfelt salute to the exceptionally talented cast who brought the characters to life and the audiences who continue to make it happen! Thank you for the magic, the moments, and the memories. #station19.”
**Yellowstone’s Final Chapter**
Paramount Network’s *Yellowstone*, a cornerstone of the neo-Western genre created by Taylor Sheridan, is also reaching its conclusion. The series, known for its gripping portrayal of the Dutton family’s tumultuous life on their Montana ranch, will end after its fifth season.
The final season is split into two parts: the first eight episodes aired from November 2022 to January 2023, while the second part is scheduled to air in November 2024. As for the series’ leading man, Kevin Costner, his involvement in the final episodes remains uncertain.
In a notable shift, Paramount Network announced in May 2023 that *Yellowstone* would be succeeded by a spinoff series starring Matthew McConaughey. This new chapter in the *Yellowstone* universe will continue the saga but with a new lead.
