Blue Bloods‘ renewal was announced on Friday, shortly before an emotional season finale for the series. The upcoming season is a momentous occasion, as it will take the show beyond the 200-episode mark. In a statement about the pickup, CBS Entertainment president Kelly Kahl raved about the show’s massive success.
“Blue Bloods has been a top 10 drama and Friday’s top-rated show every year it’s been on the air,” Kahl said. “On a night that many have claimed is quiet for broadcast television, its quality writing, superb acting and familial warmth have attracted an average of over 13 million passionate viewers each week for nine years. We are delighted that Tom will return and that the show will continue to be a vital component of the CBS schedule next season.”
The stars of Blue Bloods celebrated the renewal as well, particularly Donnie Wahlberg, who live-tweeted the renewal and then the season finale alongside fans.
Thanks for watching and being the best fans ever!!!
See you next #BlueBloods Friday!
