The CBS cop drama “Blue Bloods” is reportedly being evaluated for a spinoff, according to Paramount Global co-CEO Brian Robbins. During a shareholder meeting, Robbins announced plans for additional brand expansions, including “Blue Bloods,” as well as shows like “Dexter” and “Billions.” Details about the spinoff have not yet been revealed.
Baez and Danny: The Dynamic Duo’s Potential Spinoff Adventure!
Fans of “Blue Bloods” have long enjoyed the dynamic between detectives Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) and Maria Baez (Marisa Ramirez). While many have speculated about a romantic connection between the two, showrunner Kevin Wade has expressed reservations about exploring this in the final season of the original series, citing concerns about maintaining the show’s tone and avoiding clichés.
Wade described Danny as a “loner” who is dedicated to his work, implying that a deeper look into his personal life might be better suited for a spinoff series. Wahlberg and Ramirez have depicted their characters with subtle chemistry, providing depth to their on-screen relationship.
Despite the potential for romance, a spinoff focusing on Danny and Baez wouldn’t necessarily require a romantic angle to captivate audiences. Their intense investigative work has been a highlight of “Blue Bloods,” suggesting that a spinoff could delve deeper into these high-stakes scenarios, potentially with a grittier edge if it were a streaming-exclusive series.
Family Drama: Jamie and Eddie
Fans have proposed a spinoff centered on Jamie and Eddie’s family interactions, particularly their duties as parents. Season 14 featured them working together undercover, showcasing their tight bond. A new series might explore their expanding relationship and family life, providing a fresh perspective while retaining the core of Blue Bloods.
Jamie & Joe Spinoff
The idea for a spinoff involves Jamie and his nephew, played by Will Hochman, with Eddie still involved. Their relationship, often contentious due to Joe’s late introduction to the Reagan family, would be central. If Tom Selleck’s Frank Reagan retires, Jamie could take up his mantle as police commissioner, impacting their personal and professional lives. Their ongoing conflicts would continue from Blue Bloods into the spinoff, exploring how they navigate their differences as “brothers.”
Erin Reagan: Diving into Legal Her Own Procedural Series!
“Erin Reagan could shift the focus to a courtroom drama, emphasizing her role in the District Attorney’s office.” With links to the NYPD, it allows for Reagan family cameos and provides a new environment while yet keeping the familial connection. It’s an opportunity to investigate Erin’s career path, which might lead to her choosing political office such as mayor to serve New York City.”
Prequel for Young ‘Frank Reagan’ and ‘Lenny Ross‘
How about a prequel spinoff focusing on young Frank Reagan and his detective partner Lenny Ross? Set during their early years in the force, it would explore their journey, their careers, and their relationships, including Lenny’s daughter Tess Ross. This could also feature Frank’s late wife, Mary Margaret Reagan, and a younger Henry Reagan still active as a cop. It would provide a fresh perspective on beloved characters and their formative years in law enforcement.
