With the WGA writers’ strike ending, the hope is now for the SAG-AFTRA actors’ strike to be resolved pleasingly, and then the shows we all know and love will come back. Amongst those on hiatus for who-knows-how-long is "Blue Bloods," which will kick off Season 14 when it returns, after CBS took a while to renew the long-running cop procedural earlier this year. The drama hit 250 episodes during Season 12 and is fast approaching 300, with Donnie Wahlberg having filled the shoes of Detective Danny Reagan since the beginning. But will it soon be time for him to retire the badge?
Donnie Wahlberg previously opened up about what the future of "Blue Bloods" looked like, noting he’d rather live in the present than worry about where the series is a year or two from now. That doesn’t mean he isn’t thinking about it.
