Will there be Blue Bloods Season 14?
On March 29, ’23, CBS formally ordered season 14 of Blue Bloods, before the premiere of the Season 13 finale. But, on July 21, 2023, CBS announced the renewed 14th season is currently delayed and on hold until further notice due to the ongoing 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.
When will Blue Bloods Season 14 premiere on CBS?

Now, that the WGA strike is over, we can expect the cameras to roll as soon as early next year. Unfortunately, we won’t be seeing Season 14 on our screens until at least spring 2024. Initially, the production was slated to commence in July 2023 with a planned fall premiere. However, due to the strikes by WGA and SAG, production had to be halted.
In addition, due to the renewal, the show surpasses NCIS: Los Angeles, which just finished its 14th season, to take the title of the longest-running current scripted series. Blue Bloods season 14’s premiere may not occur until 2024, and there won’t be any updates until later in the year.

Frank Reagan will grapple with the pressures of leading the NYPD amidst a changing political landscape. Danny Reagan will tackle a new wave of cases, showcasing his relentless pursuit of justice while struggling with the emotional toll of his work.

So I suspect [we’ll] have at least another season.”
