Tom Selleck is back for more on the streets of New York
The Reagan family return to the small screen for some more police procedural drama on Friday - read on to find out how you can watch Blue Bloods Season 11 online and stream every new episode as soon as it's released, no matter where you are in the world.
Having been hauled off air early back in May thanks to issues with filming due to the coronavirus, Tom Selleck and co are back, with a new run of shows, intriguingly set six months after the end of the pandemic.
Blue Bloods Season 11 premieres on Friday December 4 on CBS at 10pm ET/PT as part of the network's new Friday night line-up, with the show nicely scheduled after the reboot of Magnum P.I. - Tom Selleck's old 80's crime vehicle. You can live stream Magnum P.I. Season 3 on CBS All Access - and anyone from the US abroad can check out the VPN route to watch just like they would at home.
Warning: spoilers for Blue Bloods Season 11 lie below. Scroll down to get straight to our spoiler-free guide explaining how to watch Blue Bloods in countries around the world.
The opening episode of the new series sees the return of Whoopi Goldberg to the cast as City Council Speaker Regina Thomas, and a face-off with Tom Selleck's character, Frank, as protests against police brutality grip the city.
There's early tension in the season opener as Danny and Baez go missing while searching for a killer.
Meanwhile, the new series also picks up the storyline of the late Joe Reagan’s son, Joe (Will Hochman), who was introduced at the end of season 10.

Those with a cable subscription can catch Blue Bloods on CBS from 10pm ET/PT every Friday from December 4.
If you don't have the channel on linear TV, it's available to stream on CBS All Access in the US. It’s free if you have cable – you just need to input your provider details to watch. Otherwise, it’s $5.99 per month for its Limited Commercials plan and $9.99 per month to stream without commercials.

If you're abroad today but still want to get your fix of the action from Hawaii just as you would if you were at home, you'll need a VPN to do so. This is because of the pesky digital phenomenon known as geo-blocking, which means watching a stream of Chicago Fire from your usual provider might not be possible in certain parts of the world.
However, a Virtual Private Network offers a legal solution to this common internet woe and is remarkably easy to set up and operate. Here's how it works and where to get started.
