A recent behind-the-scenes look at the Blue Bloods finale hints at a significant event in store for fans. While CBS has confirmed that the show will wrap up with its 14th season, viewers are still holding out hope for an extension. The final eight episodes are set to air this fall, culminating in a much-anticipated series finale in December.
In these concluding episodes, storylines will delve into topics such as Eddie and Jamie’s family planning and Frank’s ongoing confrontations with Mayor Chase.
Though producers have not teased any major plot twists, a recent Instagram post by Donnie Wahlberg has heightened excitement among fans. In the photo, Wahlberg is seen in full dress uniform, deep in thought on his last day of production, surrounded by fellow cast members also dressed for the occasion.
Showrunner Kevin Wade provided a tantalizing clue to TVLine about the significance of the dress blues, stating, “I can only say they’re only in dress blues for certain kinds of ceremonies.” He confirmed that a large set piece involving all characters in dress uniforms will take place toward the end of the finale.
This ceremony could mark several potential milestones: Frank’s retirement as NYPD Commissioner, Eddie’s promotion, an honor for Frank or his father Henry, or perhaps a special anniversary for the NYPD. With no major character deaths or surprising plot twists anticipated, the producers seem focused on delivering a satisfying conclusion for the show’s dedicated audience.
