Blue Bloods Season 14 Trailer Sees Crime On The Rise As The Reagan Family’s Story Comes To A Close
Intense crime-solving, heartfelt reunions, and famously beloved family dinners are all coming to the screens once again for the final season of Blue Bloods with the new season 14 trailer. Despite remaining a solid ratings performer for the network, CBS announced in late 2023 that season 14 would be the end for the show, while the cast have remained hopeful about the possibility of returning. Blue Bloods season 14 premiered its first half in February 2024, with the second half set to premiere on October 18.
With just over a week remaining until its return, Entertainment Weekly has revealed the trailer for the second half of Blue Bloods season 14. The promo begins with a celebration of its “14 seasons of unforgettable memories,” followed by a rapid-fire montage of some of the most significant scenes from the show, like weddings, babies, and, of course, arrests.
Many of the show’s long-standing relationships are also highlighted in the trailer, especially those between Frank and his kids, Sergeant Jamie Reagan (Will Estes), ADA Erin Reagan (Bridget Moynahan), and Detective Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg). The Reagan family is also shown adjusting to the changing law enforcement environment, including adjustments within the NYPD and changes in their relationships.
Following its reflection of the characters’ journeys thus far, the Blue Bloods season 14 trailer then turns towards spotlighting the high stakes the Reagan family are facing going into the show’s final episodes. Donnie Wahlberg’s Danny can be seen getting far too aggressive during arrests, while a rise in crime leads to a butting of heads between Tom Selleck’s Frank and Dylan Walsh’s Mayor Chase, and Erin also seemingly having her freedom threatened
What The Trailer Says About Blue Bloods’ Final Episodes
The Reagan Family Don’t Have A Smooth Ride To The Finale
As evidenced by the Blue Bloods season 14 trailer, the road leading up to the show’s finale will not be a smooth one for the Reagan family. One of the biggest takeaways from the trailer is Bridget Moynahan’s Erin being arrested in her own office, though the footage cuts the moment just short enough to leave it unclear why she’s being arrested. Considering the trailer also points towards a significant rise in crime in New York, it seems possible she may simply be getting framed or mistaken for a crime she didn’t commit.
The other major takeaway from the Blue Bloods season 14 trailer is that the ultimate conflict will come down to Frank and Chase and their differing views about the NYPD’s future. Considering the next set of episodes will bring the show to a close, it seems possible that the outcome of their conflict will not only determine Frank’s future as the NYPD Commissioner, but even how the show could continue with the reported spinoff plans.
Our Take On The Blue Bloods Trailer
Blue Bloods Is Going Out With A Bang
As Blue Bloods gears up for its final season, viewers are also preparing to say goodbye to the iconic series that became a fixture in their weekly viewing for a decade and a half. The show has become a favorite among the public due to the show’s successful way of portraying the emotional depth of the Reagan family as well as the high-stakes crime-solving, and the final season is expected to bring everything to a fitting and powerful conclusion.
Even if this specific chapter is coming to an end, Blue Bloods might be coming back to the screens, as a spin-off is being considered, according to CBS Studios President David Stapf, although there has not been any confirmation yet. Given the show’s massive popularity and the richness of its characters, a spinoff focusing on another aspect of law enforcement, with one or more of the Reagan children taking the lead, is definitely possible.
