</p>

<p id=”par-6_64″>There’s also some good news for <em>Blue Bloods </em>fans. Longtime viewers were devastated when CBS canceled the Tom Selleck cop drama after 14 seasons. The show wrapped up in November 2024, but a few months later, the network confirmed that it wasn’t done with the Reagan family. It had tapped <em>Blue Bloods </em>star Wahlberg to star in a spinoff series focused on his character. </p>

<p id=”par-7_63″><em>Boston Blue </em>will follow Danny Reagan as he leaves his familiar NYC stomping grounds for Boston. Danny’s son Sean (Mika Amonsen) wants to carry on his family’s law enforcement legacy but hopes to do so on his own terms. He takes a job with the Boston Police Department, and his dad has followed him to Beantown. Sonequa Martin-Green will play Danny’s new partner. </p>

<p id=”par-8_20″><em>Boston Blue </em>will take over <em>Blue Bloods’ </em>old time slot, airing on Fridays at 10 p.m. ET/PT starting October 17. </p>

<p id=”par-9_44″>Also premiering on October 17 will be <em>Fire Country </em>Season 4 at 8 p.m. ET/PT, followed by the first season of <em>Sheriff Country </em>at 9 p.m. Following premiere week, <em>Sheriff Country </em>moves to the 8 p.m. timeslot with <em>Fire Country </em>airing at 9 p.m. </p>
