The new season is delayed to November 2020

Initially scheduled for a September release, CBS announced that most shows are delayed to November 2020 including Blue Bloods. The show will occupy the Friday 10:00pm time lost, just after Magnum P.I. Season 3 (9:00pm) and MacGyver season 5 (8:00pm).

What will happen in season 11?

Paula Hill asked Commissioner Frank Reagan a special favor : to get her son transferred to a less dangerous assignment in NYPD. “Family secrets”, the season finale of Blue Bloods came with the shocking revelation that the new character, was actually a son of the Reagan family.  Season 11 could feature new changes including:

A new love interest? When asked about a potential new date for Danny Reagan, Tom Selleck responded that there would be a “personal” change for the character. After the journalist asked him explicitely if the character would start dating, the actor ended the conversation with “That’s all I will have to say”. 

A rival for Jamie Reason? A new rivalry could come up as Jamie gets promoted.

A leadership test for Jamie Reagan? We now want to see how Jamie can respond to leadership challenges where his peers are at risk. How does he take on challenging situations and address threats, from murder investigations to hostage situations?

A new enemy for Danny Reagan? Danny needs a new enemy, since the rivalry with Delgado has already taken so many turns. A fresh approach is needed.

About this show:

Season 11 is coming this Fall 2020 but the show has not yet been renewed for season 12 (2021).

Blue Bloods is a drama about a multi-generational family of cops dedicated to New York City law enforcement. Frank Reagan is the New York Police Commissioner and heads both the police force and the Reagan brood. He runs his department as diplomatically as he runs his family, even when dealing with the politics that plagued his unapologetically bold father, Henry, during his stint as Chief. A source of pride and concern for Frank is his eldest son Danny, a seasoned detective, family man and Iraq War vet who on occasion uses dubious tactics to solve cases with his loyal and tough partner, Detective Jackie Curatola. The Reagan women in the family include Erin, a N.Y. Assistant D.A., who also serves as the legal compass for her siblings and father, and single parent to her teenage daughter Nicky; and Linda, Danny's supportive wife. Jamie is the youngest Reagan, a recent grad of Harvard Law and the family's "golden boy."
