Amber Dowling Globe and Mail Oct 27
There’s nothing groundbreaking about the format, but that’s exactly why the show will be comforting to the procedural seekers out there who just want to know what kind of a cop drama they’re getting into. Go to Full Review John Anderson Wall Street Journal Oct 22
If you miss it, it’s OK, because the writing is such that the storyline gets reintroduced after every commercial break. Go to Full Review Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times Oct 21
Crowds will be pleased. I have no complaints myself. Go to Full Review Monique Jones Common Sense Media Nov 4
3/5
Regardless of how entertaining it is, Boston Blue feels like the next level in "copaganda." Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider Oct 22
The first episode of Boston Blue twists itself into storytelling knots to get Donnie Wahlberg’s Blue Bloods character working with the Boston PD, and the way the Silver family is constructed feels equally as contrived. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Anne W. @RT97028733 Jun 3 Another great show with two outstanding lead actors See more Jimmy - @RT02271216 Jun 2 Don't fix what isn't broken... This format isn't broken , great to see the Blue bloods traditions live on ❤️ See more Marvel N @Marvel_Nerd May 25 This show is what I wanted. As a fan of "Blue Bloods", I love seeing the cameos here and there and overall just seeing Danny and his son. This new family is very well written and thought out. I especially love the chemistry between Danny and Lena. I definitely recommend! See more marius G @MariusG May 16 Nothing special about this one. Second tier series, something to binge in between good series. Politicly correct, the series is trying to approach different sensitive topics, whiteout succes though. See more Kimo S @RT97973036 May 10 It is a pale failing imitation of Blue Bloods that does not rise to the level of authenticity nor the performance we've had in the Blue Bloods season for 14 seasons. See more Tim L @RT44413189 Apr 14 Terrible, stupid show. Everything about it is awful. You couldn't pay me to continue watching this. This show will be cancelled. See more Read all reviews
