Blue Bloods Season 14: Release Date, Cast, Story & Everything We Know

CBS' police procedural Blue Bloods finished its 13th season in May 2023, and there is plenty of Blue Bloods season 14 news to be had. First airing in 2010, Blue Bloods is quite different from most procedural dramas as it doesn't follow one specific branch of law enforcement. Rather, Blue Bloods centers on the Reagan family and their subsequent multi-generational power within the New York City criminal justice system. Each family member represents a different role in law enforcement, which lends the series a unique perspective.

A successful series from the start, Blue Bloods has evolved into a TV institution as it continues its second decade on the air. Unlike more limited procedurals, Blue Bloods' character-centric narratives have kept audiences rapt, and the upcoming season 14 should be no different. Blue Bloods has thus far seen the criminal justice family work together with various colleagues through a number of cases for the past 13 years, and the show is set to continue based on the latest Blue Bloods season 14 news.

Along with the announcement of Blue Blood's season 14 premiere date, it was officially confirmed that the series would be ending. While the news came as a shock to many fans, it was also shocking to the series' stars, and Tom Selleck discussed Blue Blood's conclusion at length.

Some of the best Blue Bloods season 14 news is that the majority of the cast is returning to reprise their roles. The Blue Bloods season 14 cast will be led by Tom Selleck as Police Commissioner Frank Reagan, and he will be joined by Donnie Wahlberg as Detective Danny Reagan. Along with series regulars, Jennifer Esposito will return as Jackie Curatola in episode 2.

The rest of the confirmed cast members for season 14 include:

Along with the season 14 release date, CBS also confirmed that it would be canceling Blue Bloods after 14 seasons. The move is somewhat surprising considering the continued ratings success, but there may be logistical concerns behind the scenes. So far, no plans for a spinoff or sequel series have been announced, and season 14 will see the Reagan family conclude their story.

The Blue Bloods season 14 story should first be punctuated by Jackie Curatola's (Jennifer Esposito) surprise return. Not seen since season 3, Curatola is now the Chief of Police in Suffolk County and is enlisting her former partner Danny's help in tracking down an elusive serial killer who is terrorizing her town. Erin may be moving forward in her career by running in the election for New York's District Attorney as well.

Since season 14 is the end of the long-running procedural, viewers can expect a conclusive finale to cap off the series' impressive run. Though nothing has been revealed yet, the final season could be one of the biggest yet, as Blue Bloods devises a fitting end for the characters that fans have come to love for nearly a decade and a half.
