The 79-year-old actor, who stars as Commissioner Frank Reagan on the long-running police drama, has candidly shared his disappointment and frustration over CBS' decision to cancel the show.

AceShowbiz - After 14 seasons as Commissioner Frank Reagan on "Blue Bloods", 79-year-old Tom Selleck has expressed his dissatisfaction with the show's cancellation. In an interview with TV Insider, Selleck stated that he was "frustrated" with CBS' decision, calling the show "still wildly successful."

Despite the show's high ratings, which placed it in the top 100 in 2023-2024, CBS announced its cancellation in November 2023. Selleck expressed his disbelief, arguing that it is difficult to believe that a show with such a consistent performance would be canceled.

Selleck's frustration stems from the fact that the show was "always taken for granted" due to its strong performance from the outset. He believes that the show deserves more recognition and praise for its enduring popularity.

Reflecting on his time on "Blue Bloods", Selleck highlighted the close bonds he developed with his fellow actors, describing them as a "family as close as the Reagan family" they portrayed. He expressed his admiration for their dedication and the absence of any petty jealousy or conflict that often plagues long-running shows.

Despite his disappointment, Selleck remains optimistic about the possibility of a spinoff. CBS Studios president David Stapf has hinted at the potential for a continuation of the "Blue Bloods" universe.

While the cancellation of "Blue Bloods" has financial implications for Selleck, with the possibility of having to sell his extensive ranch, he remains adamant that he will continue acting. He expressed hope that a future Western project may be on the horizon and that he will not retire from Hollywood.

The final eight episodes of "Blue Bloods" will air on CBS in December, concluding the long-running drama that has been a staple of Friday nights for nearly 15 years.
