CBS’s decision to cancel Blue Bloods has been difficult on the cast and crew. Appearing on The Drew Barrymore Show this month, Donnie Wahlberg and Bridgeton Moynahan have broken their silence on the show’s ‘sad’ ending and Tom Selleck has also weighed in on the matter.

Speaking to TV Insider, the legendary actor was asked how he’s feeling about the end of Blue Bloods. “CBS will find an awful lot of people aren’t ready to say goodbye to it,” replied Tom. “The show’s more popular than ever, and I think [numbers] will increase with the interest this year. We’re certainly not out of ideas.”

Keeping the Faith The job takes a dangerous turn for the Reagans when Eddie and Jamie deal with a domestic violence case associated with an investigation led by Danny and Baez. Also, Frank and his friend, Archbishop Kearns (Stacy Keach), go on a mission to avail themselves to an unfiltered look at the city; and Erin is presented with a surprising offer by her ex-husband, Jack Boyle (Peter Hermann), regarding her run for District Attorney, on the thirteenth season premiere of BLUE BLOODS, Friday, Oct. 7 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Stacy Keach returns as Archbishop Kearns, Will Hochman guest stars as Joe Hill and Peter Hermann guest stars as Erins ex-husband Jack Boyle. Pictured: Tom Selleck as Frank Reagan

Noting that he’s not ready to retire just yet, Tom, 79, added: “I’m not counting the days so I can do something else. I love the work. Sometimes the hours are a little harder because I’m older, but so what? I want work as long as they’ll have me.”

Like Tom, the A-lister’s co-stars have been vocal about the cancellation. Chatting to host Drew Barrymore in April, Bridget Moynahan said, “I think everybody’s really upset and sad, but also happy and satiated?” before Donnie Wahlberg, chimed in. “More upset and sad,” he declared.

We’ve been through it all with each other.”

When the news of Blue Bloods’s cancellation broke in November, Tom was among the first to issue a statement.

“For the past 13 years it has been an honor and a privilege to work on a show that not only celebrates the men and women who protect and serve in New York City, but also displayed the importance of family,” he said.

“Working alongside these incredible actors, writers, producers, directors and crew has been a dream come true and I’m grateful to have been a part of this extraordinary group for over 275 episodes. Thank you to CBS Studios and CBS Network for their steadfast support and we offer heartfelt gratitude to the fans who gathered with us for dinner every Friday night.”
