Boston Blue Renewed for Season 2 at CBS
Boston Blue has quickly emerged as one of fall 2025’s biggest breakout hits, and CBS is officially bringing the Blue Bloods spinoff back for a second season.
The network confirmed the renewal on Wednesday, December 3, announcing Boston Blue alongside fellow Friday-night success Sheriff Country, a spinoff of Fire Country. Both series earned early renewals after strong performance across broadcast and streaming platforms.
The show follows Danny Reagan
as he begins a new chapter in Boston alongside his son, Sean. There, Danny becomes intertwined with the powerful Silver family, one of the city’s most influential law enforcement dynasties. Partnered with Detective Lena Silver, Danny takes on some of Boston’s toughest cases while navigating shifting family dynamics and professional loyalties.
With six episodes aired so far, fans can now look forward to even more stories from the expanding Blue Bloods universe.
CBS Entertainment President Amy Reisenbach praised the early success of both shows, noting that Boston Blue and Sheriff Country quickly became Friday night favorites. She credited their compelling characters, gripping storytelling, and strong ensemble casts for the swift renewals.
In addition to Wahlberg, Martin Green, and Amonsen, the cast includes Gloria Reuben as Mae Silver, Maggie Lawson as Sarah Silver, Marcus Scribner as Jonah Silver, and Ernie Hudson as Reverend Edwin Peters. Several Blue Bloods fan favorites have also appeared, including Marisa Ramirez as Detective Maria Baez and Bridget Moynahan as Erin Reagan Boyle, who returned for the series premiere.
The series continues the long running relationship between Danny and Baez, now officially a couple though their long distance romance is already facing new challenges.
