As 'Blue Bloods' rides off into the sunset after 14 seasons, Tom Selleck isn't hanging up his boots just yet; he's eyeing a return to the Western genre, preferably while sitting atop a trusty steed.

Despite the heartfelt goodbye to his 'Blue Bloods' family, Selleck is already lassoing new opportunities. Looking to the vast plains of Hollywood, the star is eager to reunite with 'Yellowstone' creator Taylor Sheridan for a Western project that would let him get back in the saddle, a role he cherishes as much as the one he played in 'Quigley Down Under.' For fans of Selleck, this could mean more cowboy action and less family drama—unless, of course, the dinner table features both saddle-bronking and psychodrama.

Selleck, who is not one to gallop off into the sunset just yet, remarked on his longing to sit on a horse again. "I've had a special connection to the Western genre throughout my career, and I'd love to explore that side of myself once more," he said, likely imagining sunsets and tumbleweeds dancing around him like the true cowboy he is. His history with Westerns is rich, having starred in six of them, which makes one wonder if he has an actual saddle in his living room or a penchant for wearing spurs unexpectedly while at home.

One of Selleck's most beloved roles is that of the sharpshooter in 'Quigley Down Under.' He fondly reminisces, stating, "It was one of my favorites; there’s just something about the Old West that feels like home." While Selleck may have wrapped up his time as Police Commissioner Frank Reagan, it seems the call of the horse is louder than ever. Fans can only hope his next role involves a Stetson and not just a suit and tie.

As 'Blue Bloods' started to wind down, Selleck found himself both reflective and nostalgic. He expressed a certain difficulty coming to terms with the show's conclusion, noting the bond he shared with the cast and crew. "We became a family over the years," he said with a hint of wistfulness. It's clear Selleck isn't just losing a job; he's losing a piece of his daily life—a reality that can be more challenging than shooting a blank in a Western duel.

Frustration also seeped into his thoughts regarding the unexpected cancellation. Selleck feels 'Blue Bloods' was taken for granted despite its success, leaving him a bit miffed. "It always feels weird when you think something is rolling along smoothly, and then suddenly, boom!" he explained, illustrating his thoughts with a hand gesture that we are left to ponder—presumably resembling a cowboy drawing a gun rather than a chef flipping a pancake.

Despite these challenges, Selleck's signature positivity shone through as he expressed his gratitude for his career experiences. "I wouldn’t change a thing about the opportunities I’ve had. Each role has been a journey, from the cop badge to the cowboy hat," he added, with a twinkle of humor in his eye. It's almost like he’s prepping for a light-hearted Western where the biggest drama is whether to drink iced tea or lemonade on a hot summer day.

While he has his sights set on a potential 'Blue Bloods' spin-off, he hasn't received any tempting suggestions yet. One imagines Selleck, decked out in leather chaps, sitting at the end of a long table surrounded by Hollywood moguls, casually suggesting they all jump into the saddle together. Until then, he remains open to whatever Westerns the universe throws his way next. Surely someone out there has a great idea involving him, horses, and perhaps even a bit of wit as he rides into the next chapter of his illustrious career.

In conclusion, one might say that while 'Blue Bloods' may have come to an end, Tom Selleck is determined not to let the dust settle too long. With a mix of nostalgia, frustration, and an unwavering commitment to his craft, he stands poised for his next adventure, entirely ready to embrace whatever comes next—even if it involves wearing a cowboy hat while shouting, "Yeehaw!" to an unseen audience.
