When the show’s final season was announced, star Selleck released this statement to fans. “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 wrote.

I did like the show...I watched it whenever possible...

I did notice that the daughter of Assistant DA Erin Reagan stopped showing up for family dinners...Maybe I missed some important episode...

I can’t believe it has been around for 14 years and I haven’t watched it once.

Not having a t.v. helps.

I caught it off and on and it was OK.

I am surprised, however, that the show lasted as long as it has given Tom’s NRA ties. Seems to me that Hollywood would have given him the Rosanne treatment by now.

Hell, I didn’t know it was still on.

I loved the show. Best part of every single episode is the entire family getting together for Sunday dinner after church. Strong family program and very pro cop as well.

It had gone really woke.

Like it a lot.

I suspect they can’t keep up with the anti-cop, crime ridden, current news emphasis.

I used to watch the show faithfully for many years, then I got turned off, because each week’s episode became something taken right out of the weekly news occurrences.

I watched it for the first three or four years but got bored with it after that.

Series should not last forever (I am looking at you, NCIS).

They start off good, then the original writers leave and eventually they just grind out the same story over and over.

All seasons are on Paramount streaming. I watched them all. And Erin only misses a few family dinners.

The show is good, except for one thing. The Danny Reagan character is over-the-top rude and sarcastic. Always with the smirk. Always with the insults.

I suspect the producers were going for a character like Andy Sipowicz from “NYPD Blue”. If so, they failed miserably. The scripts aside, Donnie Wahlberg is no Dennis Franz.

The second half of the season will return in October.

The networks have been radically altering how the schedule their shows since streaming and cord-cutting began.

The whole concept of "seasons" is over. Networks have been moving to 10 episode "seasons" now. Both "Young Sheldon" and "Ghosts" ran only 10 episode seasons this year, and Blue Bloods' 18-episode final season is being split in half, with 5-months between both halves, effectively splitting the show into two "seasons."

Maybe I missed some important episode...

The character moved to California after college.

Blue Bloods is the only network show worth watching.

My understanding is that Selleck has back issues and it was getting increasingly painful for him to work on the show.

He deserves a rest after a long and wonderful career.

Erin’s daughter took a job in California. It’s hard to commute from California to New York for weekly dinners.

My wife watches this show so I overhear it from my perch at the computer.

It’s a good show, but Tom Selleck is getting a little old to play his part. He’s almost as old as the guy who plays his dad. Probably best to let it go while he’s still able to move around a little.

Haven’t watched an episode since Who-peed Goldbrick appeared in it.
