Tom Selleck hits back at CBS over Blue Bloods cancellation: ‘All the cast wants to come back’

The Frank Reagan actor addressed the show’s ending

Tom Selleck is hitting back at CBS following the network’s decision to cancel Blue Bloods. Speaking to CBS News, the actor was asked if the show is officially ending after 14 years. “Well, that’s a good question. I will continue to think that CBS will come to their senses,” he replied.

“We’re the third-highest scripted show in all of broadcast. We’re winning the night. All the cast wants to come back. And I can tell you this: we aren’t sliding off down a cliff. We’re doing good shows, and still holding our place. So, I don’t know. You tell me!”

It’s not the first time that leading man Tom has addressed the show’s cancellation. “CBS will find an awful lot of people aren’t ready to say goodbye to it,” he told TV Insider in January.

“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.”Noting that he’s not ready to retire just yet, the 79-year-old 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.”With Blue Bloods set to conclude this fall, Tom isn’t the only cast member to address the police procedural’s cancellation. Appearing on The Drew Barrymore Show in April, Bridget Moynahan and Donnie Wahlberg expressed their sadness.
