Tom Selleck loves his private life. He lives off the map at a ranch, and has an appreciation for life outside of the spotlight. However, he’s still devoted to his work, and that held true with Blue Bloods until the very end. Selleck was willing to put his bank account aside for the show. Still, it wasn’t enough to continue on, as CBS decided to pull the plug.
Tom is finally back in public. He was recently spotted entering the gym. Although fans are pleased to see the actor back, the photos caused lots of controversy online. Daily Mail bashed his current look, while fans did not agree with the assessment. Let’s take a closer look at the recent pics, and more.
Tom Selleck’s Gym Candids In Thousand Oaks Caused Lots Of Concern For Fans
Tom Selleck is back in the spotlight. The actor is known for living a private life off the map. However, Daily Mail recently snapped candid photos of the actor. According to the outlet, the actor was looking rough in new workout pictures. The shots were the first time Selleck stepped out in public since his Blue Bloods exit. He was looking fatigued while rocking a beard.
As expected, fans had a lot to say looking at Selleck’s unrecognizable appearance. It was far from his clean cut looks compared to what fans are used to, but that’s completely okay. Fans were pleased with the overall reaction from the media, especially given Selleck’s older age.
Fans wrote, “Leave him alone, he looks great. And the show he was on has played out. It brought many many years of entertainment, and it wasn’t brutally axed, it ran its course.”
“Tom Selleck doesn’t look unrecognizable. Tom Selleck looks like a gracefully aging gentleman who is embracing a casual lifestyle, without the pressure of paparazzi stalking his every move. Instead of spending hours at the gym, maybe he’s finding solace fishing on a quiet lake. Instead of chef prepared plant based foods, perhaps he’s indulging in grilling burgers in his backyard, and Apple Pie on his porch.”
“I like the fact that he looks his age. Th pepper gray looks nice. He’s going to the gym. He looks great. My dad just turned 80 and he uses a walker.”
Great to see fans uniting and defending the legendary actor.
It remains to be seen if Selleck returns to Blue Bloods down the road. However, at the moment, it appears as though the show has come to an end.
Tom Selleck Was Crushed By CBS’ Decision To End Blue Bloods
Despite Blue Bloods coming to an end, Tom Selleck still had hopes of the show returning. Speaking with CBS News, the actor was hoping CBS would come to their senses.
“Well, that’s a good question. I will continue to think that CBS will come to their senses. We’re the third-highest scripted show in all of broadcast. We’re winning the night. All the cast wants to come back. And I can tell you this: We aren’t sliding off down a cliff. We’re doing good shows, and still holding our place. So, I don’t know. You tell me,” Selleck said when asked about the show’s future.
CBS Entertainment President Amy Reisenbach, however, didn’t give the future of Blue Bloods much hope.
“We love this cast, we love their passion for the show. All shows have to come to an end. It’s important to us to refresh the schedule. We are going to end the show come December.”
An abrupt end to the series and one Selleck clearly wasn’t entirely satisfied with.
