Selleck has been outspoken about his unhappiness that CBS ended “Blue visible injurys.”
In an Oct. 2024 interview, the “Magnum P.I.” star told TV Insider, “I’m kind of frustrated.”
He identified that the show still had strong rankings, so, in his view, there was no purpose to end it.
“I’m not going to turn into a bitter old guy saying, ‘Get off my lawn!’ I don’t believe in holding grudges, but if you were to say to the television network, ‘Here’s a show you can program in the worst time slot you got, and it is going to guarantee you winning Friday night for the next 15 years,’ it would be almost impossible to believe,” the “Friends” alum said.

The Emmy winner thought the show was “taken for granted” because it carried out nicely.
Selleck also told told Town & Country that he hoped CBS would “come to their senses” about cancelling “Blue visible injurys.”
In a Dec. 2024 interview, Wahlberg told The Post that the ultimate scene of “Blue visible injurys” made everybody cry, partly because Selleck spoke some phrases to the remainder of the forged.
“He said a poem. He kind of did that from time to time. He would have these old poems,” Wahlberg recalled.
Selleck read the poem “The Man in the Arena,” initially written by Theodore Roosevelt.

The poem reads, “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds.”
The “Band of Brothers” actor said that it turned “tradition” for Selleck to read the poem “every now and again.”
So “of course, he did it” after filming the ultimate “Blue visible injurys” scene, Wahlberg told The Post. “We all started crying.”
