In an interview with CBS 58, Tom Selleck, who plays the role of Frank Reagan, revealed that no one from the show's cast members has officially signed for "Blue Bloods" Season 10 yet. Although it might sound alarming, there are measures people behind the show could do to continue the show from running.
According to CarterMatt, cast members usually sign six or seven-year contracts upon joining a show. When the deals expire, there will be negotiations to continue the pact on an annual or semi-annual basis. So, CBS's police procedural fictional drama stars' may continue their agreements with the network to work out for "Blue Bloods" Season 10.
Of course, everyone wants Tom Selleck to return to "Blue Bloods" Season 10. What will be the show without its leader, Frank Reagan? Fortunately, the 73-year-old actor revealed that he would surely be back as he likes the series to keep going. He even enjoys filming it.
Tom Selleck sets the show's tone. It will be beyond imaginable if Frank Reagan leaves "Blue Bloods" Season 10. One of the series' main strength is to keep the majority of the Reagan family together, especially on that dinner table.
With the departure of Jennifer Esposito and Amy Carlson, the Reagan family's key members are still there. Although one of Danny's (Donnie Wahlberg) sons is off to college, the series' main stars are now Danny, Jamie (Will Estes), Erin (Bridget Moynahan), and of course, Frank. Eddie and Henry are also very much involved in law enforcement. Fans also love to see Baez (Marisa Ramirez), Baker (Abigail Hawk), Garrett (Gregory Jbara), Gromley, and Anthony (Steve Schirripa) in the show. So, viewers have high expectations to see them once again in "Blue Bloods" Season 10.
The show's ratings typically indicate the series' future, per TVLine. The higher the ratings, especially in the 18 to 49 demo, the higher the possibility that the show will be renewed. So, with "Blue Bloods" Season 9's current ratings, the future is bright for "Blue Bloods" Season 10.
"Blue Bloods" Season 9's previous episode got 8.8 million total viewers and 0.9 rating. It matched its season high in the demo.
