What happens

S.W.A.T. is an American action drama television series based on the 1975–76 television series of the same name. Aaron Rahsaan Thomas and Shawn Ryan developed the new series, which premiered on CBS on November 2, 2017, and is produced by Original Film, CBS Studios and Sony Pictures Television (the latter is a successor to the producer of the original 1975 series, Spelling-Goldberg Productions). The series stars Shemar Moore with an ensemble cast and follows Sergeant Daniel "Hondo" Harrelson (Moore) and Twenty Squad, a police Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team operating in Los Angeles, California. The series was partially inspired by real-life experiences shared by police officers. It also draws inspiration from both the original 1975 series and the 2003 film adaptation, with the 2017 reboot maintaining a similar premise and reintroducing several characters from the 2003 film. S.W.A.T. exists in a shared television universe with Ryan's FX crime drama The Shield, solidified by an appearance from the character Detective Steve Billings (played by David Marciano) from The Shield. The series received three Primetime Emmy Award nominations. In May 2023, the series was canceled after six seasons at CBS, only to be renewed for a seventh and final season at CBS a few days later. The seventh season premiered on February 16, 2024. In April 2024, the final season decision was reversed and the show was renewed for an eighth season. The eighth season premiered on October 18, 2024, and the series was cancelled for the final time in March 2025, with the series finale airing on May 16, 2025. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
