‘Boston Blue’ Will Introduce Never-Before-Seen Reagans When Season 1 Returns
Preview
What To Know
- Boston Blue will introduce never-before-seen members of the Reagan family when the Blue Bloods spinoff returns in 2026.
- Bridget Moynahan will be back as Erin Reagan, and we’ll meet new members of the Silver family.
- The midseason finale gave the first update on Jack Reagan’s whereabouts. Will he appear in Season 1?
New Reagans are coming to Boston Blue. The creators of the Blue Bloods spinoff told TV Insider their intentions to introduce never-before-seen members of the Reagan family when the show returns in 2026. Bridget Moynahan already appeared as Erin Reagan-Boyle in the series premiere, and Marisa Ramirez has reprised her role as Det. Maria Baez in several episodes of Season 1 so far. But brand new faces are going to join the fold next year.
Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) officially decided to stay in Boston in the midseason finale on December 19. Committing to the Boston Police Department meant giving up his NYPD badge. The episode also featured the first update on Danny’s oldest son, Jack Reagan. He’s in Africa working for Doctors Without Borders. Jack was played by Tony Terraciano on Blue Bloods and has yet to appear in Boston Blue. Jack won’t be one of the Reagans appearing in Season 1’s second half, co-creator Brandon Margolis told TV Line. But they’re open to the possibility of the character appearing in the spinoff if it makes sense for the story. Sean Reagan was played by Tony’s younger brother, Andrew Terraciano, in Blue Bloods, but Mika Amonsen plays him now in Boston Blue.
Executive producer Brandon Sonnier told TV Insider that more Blue Bloods stars are appearing when Boston Blue returns in February 2026.
“We can tell you that Erin will not be the only one, but that’s all we’re allowed to say,” he said.
When it comes to new characters, Margolis told TV Insider that “there are new characters that will show up. We will meet more members of the Silver family, and we will see members of the Reagan family we have not yet seen.”
“We’re still a fairly new show, and so our world is still growing and expanding as we get deeper into the characters’ lives,” Margolis added.
“We now have a good handle on the characters we’ve introduced — drawing a full picture of who the Silver family is and how the Reagans have integrated into that family,” added Sonnier. “Now that the groundwork has been laid, the second half of this season is just a full-on exciting exploration of how these relationships grow. How does this family adapt to the environment that’s sort of changing around them as the Reagans have come in? The back half of this season has been some of the most exciting television that I’ve ever been a part of.”
Viewers have gotten to know the Silver family — Lena (Sonequa Martin-Green), Mae (Gloria Reuben), Sarah (Maggie Lawson), Jonah (Marcus Scribner), and Reverend Peters (Ernie Hudson) — throughout Season 1, and their family tree will grow moving forward. Which Reagans from Blue Bloods are you hoping to see come back? And who from the family tree are you eager to meet for the first time? Let us know in the comments below.

I’d like to see the whole Reagan family and just forget about the Silvers. In other words go back to Blue Bloods instead of trying to copy it on a new show. What’s the point of that?
-
D
The point is the show had to move on. It was getting stagnant amd honestly the new spin off is exciting TV.
-
H
The point was and is... money! Pure and simple.
-
B
But another point is ratings.,.and Boston will never match Blue Bloods.
-
-
-
M
I want to see Jamie and Eddy with their new baby. She announced that they are expecting their first child at the end of Blue Blood.
-
C
I would have loved for series with Jaimie and baby growing up instead of Danny.
-
-
B
I think Blue Bloods should never have been cancelled but that said I would
like for Jamie, Eddy and their baby to appear on Boston Blue. Definitely
being Frank back
-
L
I want to see Jamie, Eddy, Baby and I want the old Blue Blood cast to move to Boston. Most of all, Frank!
-
S
Unfortunately Tom Selleck has said he is done with acting and is focusing on his family and his ranch.
-
-
C
What about Jamie, Eddy, their baby and his brother Joe as well? Also wouldn’t hurt to have dad or grandpa every once in a while if story plays with it. Honestly, bringing them to Boston Blue would be amazing!
-
K
Joe is his nephew
-
W
I think that they could introduce Joe the son of Danny's older brother come to Boston with a FBI Task Force along with Sgt Jamie who got promoted to Captain Jamie Reagan over the special unit investigation with Joe help take down a crooked NY police officer and Boston Lawyer who is a leader of the gang that had Ben Silver killed and the other guy made it look like Jonah killed him but didn't. Then bring Grandpa accompany with Eddy and her baby boy at dinner table with Silvers.
-
-
D
Yes to dad and grandpa.
No to Jaime, Eddy and Joe
-
D
Thats what I would like as well
-
-
B
Boston Blue is a dialed back version of Blue Bloods. Danny has all of a sudden become a calm nice guy. The writer is trying to capture that family dinner and the interaction doesn’t mesh.
The show will stay on the air until viewers realize,itis not anything close to Blue Bloods.
Why they ended Blue Bloods, I just don’t get.
-
B
I agree...Blue doesn't come close to matching Blue Bloods. Not one character in Boston could shine the shoes of any of the New York family.
-
-
S
Why not have Jaime check up on his brother? I think that would actually be quite funny as those two are always doing something to one another just to keep one another in check.
-
G
I know it will probably never happen but Frank Frank and only Frank!!!!!!!
-
S
Tom has already said he is done acting, he is focusing on his real life family and his ranch.
-
-
R
I just don’t enjoy Boston Blue like I did Blue Bloods. After the first couple of episodes, I turned it off.
-
M
How would I know what never-before-seen Reagan I want to see if they have never been seen before? The only Reagans I know about were the ones on Blue Bloods. No aunts, uncles, or cousins were ever mentioned.
-
S
They want to know what you "would" want to see, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins etc. Use your imagination, it is a "fictional" tv series.
-
D
New baby Reagan Jamie and Eddy
-
B
It means never seen in the new Spin Off Series Boston Blue. Quote "....and we will see members of the Reagan family we have not yet seen.” means "have not yet seen in our new show". We, the audience, haven't see them yet, in Boston Blue. We have indeed see them already in Blue Bloods, but they yet have to appear in the Spin off Series. Thats what he was saying,
-
-
K
I would love to see Jamie, Eddy and baby also would love to see Joe as well!
-
P
That would be great. I really want to see Danny's old partner, now love interest (Biàz) move to Boston so they become a couple.
-
-
W
We never saw Jamie and Eddy's baby.
-
T
You are trying to replace the Regan family with The Silvers. that as you are finding out does not work and will never work. You left too much unsaid.
-
D
Your comment makes no sense. Have you watched the new series? The dynamics are clicking on all cylinders. Does it bother you that some of the leading cast are African American?
-
-
C
Not to take away anything from Boston Blue, it's a good show but Blue Bloods had set a high bar it's a tough act to follow
-
C
Need TOM SELLECK!!!!
-
F
It would be nice to see Henry and frank
-
G
I'd like to see Eddy, Jamie and the baby in Boston Blue and would like Marisa Ramirez to be a part of Boston Blue as Danny's ongoing girlfriend and progress.
-
S
Jaime needs to come back. He's a brother! Also Eddie.
-
L
Honestly I have tried watching Boston Blue and do not connect at all with the Silver family and their dynamics....only Danny and Sean's developing relationship is heartfelt and love how they are developing Sean's character and career . The Silver family dynamic is confusing and really not very sympathetic characters so far.
-
Y
WHY DID BLUE BLOOD END. THE RATINGS WERE SO GOOD, WE THE FANS ALL OVER THE WORLD LOVED THIS SHOW AND THE CAST. PLEASE BRING THE SHOW BACK.❤️🙏
-
H
Jamie and Edie should be on there too.
-
J
Want to see Tom Selleck
-
P
I think Tony and Andrew and Jamie and Eddie and Henry and frank and J oe and Erin and jack and Nikki should move to Boston and let's not forget Maria baez and her daughter
-
B
Boston Blue is not the same, I'm giving it a chance but cancelling the original Blue Bloods series was a HUGE mistake.
-
B
Boston Blue is a little dull and basically the crime of the week. The dinner scenes are not working for me. Even if they are partners, should he and Sean expect to be invited to dinner every week. That is stretching the premise a bit I think. What about Baez, is he giving her up just to stay in Boston with Sean? I think the writers can do much better than they have been doing so far.
-
J
Not that interested in this show. Too much of a copycat of blue bloods, which everyone loved.
-
K
It’s all bullish to say it, but to actually do it is another lie, they put out these fake statements to get people to watch!! We will never see Blue Bloods again, and Boston Blue is a cheap replacement!!
-
M
Jaimie, Eddie, Frank for sure! And Joe…everybody loved Joe! And please develop the relationship between Danny and Baez, that was everything.
-
C
One of the saddest days in my life.....when they stopped producing "Blue Bloods"....it was one show I could look forward to every week....the Producers need to take another look at this show and bring it back on!!!
-
M
I miss Blue Bloods and everyone from it.
-
M
It would be very nice to see Jamie, Eddy, and there nephew Joe as well. Maybe they could all work together to help Jonah out of the awful situation he has gotten in on the last show regarding his father's killer.
Special Note: I love Boston Blue keep up the good work. The blended family and two families blending is wonderful.
-
S
Jamie and Eddie and their new baby.
-
M
There is nothing like Christmas time to get the whole gang together. Having the NY pool come to Boston for Christmas or a family vacation would be great. I like the Silver family but I love the Reagans. Definitely want Frank, Pops, Jaime, Eddie and baby, and Joe. I don't feel like his character has been given enough attention.
-
G
I hope the show centers The Silvers more and more. Go watch Blue Bloods on streaming if it's that's big of a deal.
-
N
You can’t compete with the original.
-
W
What was the point of changing the show. So far I haven't seen anything that makes me want to come back 😕
-
M
Yes I watch this show but if I'm speaking honestly...I think this show is not good. The acting is awful. Danny looks...different & is not the Detective we've come to love. The Silver family is literally the same as the Reagans. I just don't understand it🤷♀️ I will never understand why Blue Bloods was canceled. There was plenty of story lines to go with.
-
B
I figured it would be nice to see the younger Reagan, Jamie, and his wife, Danny and his kids Aaron and her family would be nice to. See Nikki Jack younger Reagans, maybe these out the grandpa and the commissioner who use the younger Reagan would be nice oh yeah to see Danny girlfriend a lot more.
-
G
Show is a slap in the face to Tom Selleck plus filmed in Canada. Blue Bloods should never have been cancelled but good family oriented programs don’t fit with the powers that be. All the bases are touched with this imitation
-
T
"Never-Before-Seen Reagans" makes zero sense. Moving the show to Boston also makes zero sense and is why we don't watch.
-
V
I would like to see Danny and his partner Det. Baez get married. That would be so cool.
-
D
Boston blue although I was skeptical at 1st, turns out I'm a HUGE FAN TOTALLY INVESTED. The writing, the plot scenarios, and as a NATIVE NEW YORKER, it's kool to see another city and the authenticity in the set designs. Looking forward to the second half of the season.
-
L
I think Joe Hill should come to Boston.
-
V
Jamie, Eddie and a retired Frank that lives with Danny.
-
G
How about Joe? Jamie, Eddie and baby, Pops, or all of them
-
E
Eddie and Jamie need to move there with their baby miss them
-
H
"Blue Bloods" was becoming too expensive to produce...
-
H
It was ended over money issues...
-
H
And you may never will!
-
D
They need to have Baez move to Boston so that Danny has someone to come home to.
-
T
Detective Baez should rejoin Detective Reagan first continuing their romance culminating man and wife. Two detectives continuing a great job/romance performed In Blue Bloods.
-
T
Frank Regan and Jamie Regan
-
M
Another spin-off no one asked for.
-
M
Show sucks! That’s the only reason you have come up with new characters! Too woke!
-
M
I love this show am I angry? They took Blue Bloods off the air. Absolutely CVS is one of the worst television companies out there for taking television shows the way that people absolutely love it’s CBS that stinks. I can’t stand the people in charge of the CBS programming.
-
M
I miss Blue Bloods. I do not watch Boston Blue.
-
S
I would like to see nephew Detective Joe Hill, brother Jamie and wife Eddie and their kid finally and Danny's grand father, Henry.
-
P
Would like to see Eddie and Jamie.
-
A
Boston blue is a show with no balls...sorry... bring back blue bloods
-
B
Henry and Frank
-
L
Watched a few episodes. Didn't really like it much
-
L
Boston Blue sucks
-
M
It’s too bad that Boston Blue is only on CTV in Canada and unavailable now that it’s become so popular because CTV does not allow viewing of this show (free episodes) when they did at the start of the season. They want viewers to have a subscription in order to watch Boston Blue. I don’t want a subscription to watch shows on CTV because I have enough shows to watch on other channels.
-
H
Forget it CBS. You booked a loser this time!
-
M
I don’t see why they felt the need to have Danny’s “son” in Boston if they couldn’t get one of the actor’s who actually portrayed his son. Make it a nephew from his wife’s side or something. It’s too forced.
-
J
Putting characters from Blue Bloods will not make Boston Blue a good show. The same characters from Boston Blue will still be there.
-
D
Jamie and Eddy would be an awesome addition.
-
L
Nothing can save this mess of a series now. What a disaster. Acting is horrible and unrealistic plus the writers should all be fired. Blue bloods should never have been cancelled. Bring it back and dump this mistake. Should have listened to your viewers and not politics.
-
D
Jamie Eddy baby nephew Joe and Henry would be my first choices
-
L
Nothing but a woke mess!
-
T
Where’s Frank Reagan ? He is the family patriarch in Blue Bloods and of course would love to see Jamie, Eddy and their baby and Joe Reagan as well. I agreed with Lynn Marie, move the entire casts to Boston Blue !
-
G
Bring back Frank and the whole clan back
why was Blue Blood cancelled wrong
-
G
I'm here for the Silver family and I wish TVinsider (and other media outlets) would ask questions about them instead of ignoring them.
-
D
Totally agree
-
T
the silver family is so fake . there's zero chemistry between them . the da the matriarch what is going on with her face? her mouth looks like he jokers from the batman series in 68.
-
-
D
Bring back the whole family even if it was just for 1 episode
-
T
boston blue was ruushed because donnie cried so hard about losing blue bloods. the show is so bad . blue bloods was about cases and the whole family. this is not that . its not doing well and the proof is this . they are adding never before seen reagens . they should have just started a new series fresh not this stupid cross over
-
J
I think it's a horrible show it's trying to be blue blood without the depth of characters story lines , and the lily white daughter is a puzzle , the Jewish blacks with a baptist patriotic makes no sense ,adding danny to to the family circle is unrealistic . The sean character is weak the original would have been much better then there's jr. From blackish get real .
Bottom line it's not a good show no matter how many cameos from blue bloods it's never going to be a good show , just my opinion . Ps . Wahlberg was one of the weak links in blue bloods .
