Boston Blue: The 12 Characters That *Have* to Cross Over From the OG Series

The Reagan family lives on! On February 18, Deadline reported that Blue Bloods was getting a spinoff, Boston Blue, centered around Detective Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg). The show is expected to debut during the 2025-26 television season on CBS and follow Danny from New York to Boston as a member of the Boston Police Department. He will team up with Detected Lena Peters, who comes from a prominent law enforcement family — and as the eldest daughter, you don’t mess with her!

Since this spinoff will be part of the Blue Bloods universe, it’s only natural that at least some of the former series’ characters will make a cameo. Here are the 12 characters we think should — at some point — head to Boston to see Danny.
