Tom Selleck On Feeling “Frustrated” By CBS’ Decision To End “Always Taken For Granted” ‘Blue Bloods’


Tom Selleck admitted to being 'frustrated' over CBS' decision to end the long-running police procedural 'Blue Bloods.'

In a new interview with TV Insider, the star — who has portrayed NYPD police commissioner Frank Reagan across nearly 300 episodes, 14 seasons and just as many years — discussed feeling that the primetime series has been “always taken for granted.” He continued, “I’m not going to turn into a bitter old guy saying, ‘Get off my lawn!’ I don’t believe in holding grudges, but if you were to say to the television network, ‘Here’s a show you can program in the worst time slot you got, and it is going to guarantee you winning Friday night for the next 15 years,’ it would be almost impossible to believe.” Blue Bloods, which first premiered on CBS on Sept. 24, 2010, follows the members of the fictional Irish-Catholic Reagan family, who has a history of working in New York City law enforcement.
