So, here we are, on the cusp of October’s most tantalizing TV event, and I can’t help but wonder—does the cosmos know something we don’t? With Mercury flexing its communicative muscles and Mars stirring up a bit of fiery action, Paramount Global is gearing up to launch Boston Blue, a CBS drama that boldly expands the Blue Bloods universe. Picture Donnie Wahlberg’s gritty NYPD detective Danny Reagan packing up his badge and badge stories to tackle Boston’s streets alongside the sharp and unyielding detective Lena Silver, played by Sonequa Martin-Green. It’s family drama, cop drama, and city-switch shenanigans all rolled into one — with some star-studded appearances and a premiere that’s not just a first but a global TV market headline at Cannes’ MIPCOM in mid-October. Could this celestial lineup be the perfect storm for a procedural hit? Only time—and your TV screen—will tell. LEARN MORE
Paramount Global will launch Boston Blue, its new CBS drama and expansion of the Blue Bloods franchise, at the international TV market MIPCOM in October.
Boston Blue will have its world premiere in Cannes at MIPCOM on Oct. 12, ahead of the series’ U.S. debut on CBS on Oct. 17. Series lead and executive producer Donnie Wahlberg and co-star Sonequa Martin-Green are set to attend the premiere and participate in a post-screening Q&A.
Produced by CBS Studios and Jerry Bruckheimer Television, Boston Blue follows Wahlberg’s NYPD detective Danny Reagan as he relocates to the Boston Police Department and is paired with detective Lena Silver (Martin-Green). As Reagan adjusts to a new city, he also attempts to reconnect with his son Sean (Mika Amonsen), now a rookie officer in Boston. Bridget Moynahan will guest star in the premiere, reprising her role as Erin Reagan, and is set to direct an episode later in the season.
The series introduces Silver’s new law enforcement family led by Boston District Attorney Mae Silver (Gloria Reuben), with police superintendent Sarah Silver (Maggie Lawson) and rookie officer Jonah Silver (Marcus Scribner), alongside Reverend Edwin Peters (Ernie Hudson).
Showrunners and executive producers Brandon Sonnier and Brandon Margolis are joined by Jerry Bruckheimer, KristieAnne Reed and Wahlberg on the producing team.
MIPCOM director Lucy Smith described Boston Blue as “a perfect premiere” for this year’s market, citing the global interest in the CBS procedurals.
MIPCOM, which runs Oct. 13–16, is the world’s largest global market for television and streaming content, drawing more than 10,000 attendees from more than 100 countries.
