After what seemed like an eternity, CBS’ "Blue Bloods"f landed an unbelievable Season 14 renewal. And while it came at the cost of budget cuts, it was still cause for celebration amongst fans. The series only recently wrapped its 13th season, though it's likely that some people are still pondering what may lie ahead for the show over the next few years. Amid the uncertainties brought upon by the altered production costs, series star Donnie Wahlberg -- who's set to take a pay cut this coming year -- weighed in on how he's approaching the show's future.

It's certainly impressive that "Blue Bloods" is going into its 14th season, and the CBS show's longevity is thanks in great part to the dedicated fans, also known as Blockheads. The changing television landscape and the amount of money now allocated to the cop procedural are enough to make one concerned about its survival, though. Donnie Wahlberg, who has portrayed Detective Danny Reagan since the premiere in 2010, tells Us Weekly that he’s merely living in the present following the renewal and would rather not worry about what could happen a year or two from now.
