Unfortunately, it will be a different story for UK fans, who have to wait a lot longer for the series to air on Sky Witness.

Season 12 began in June 2022, eight months after the initial release date in the States.

This series is still airing on Sky Witness, consisting of a total of 20 episodes.

If this same pattern continues, UK viewers won't be able to watch series 13 until June 2023.

What will Blue Bloods season 13 be about?

At the end of series 12, Erin Reagan (played by Moynahan) announced over the weekly family dinner she would be running for district attorney.

She made the decision after she experienced some major conflicts with the current district attorney Kimberly Crawford (Roslyn Ruff).

Crawford also pushed Erin to run for the job as she admitted she would no longer prosecute non-violent crimes.

This would cause trouble for the policing profession as a whole as well as for her dad Frank Reagan (Tom Selleck) as the commissioner.

There was some good news as well for Detective Maria Baez (Ramirez).

Due to her dedication to the job, Maria had put her personal life on hold for many years but realised she needed to take a small step back.

She worked on a criminal case involving a newborn being left orphaned and she was so moved by the investigation she ended up adopting the baby herself.

Blue Bloods season 13 premieres on Friday, October 10, on CBS in America. A UK release date hasn't been announced.
