Hondo and his team will be back at work in the 2021-22 broadcast television season. CBS has renewed the SWAT TV series for a fifth year.
The SWAT TV show stars Shemar Moore, Alex Russell, Jay Harrington, Lina Esco, Kenny Johnson, David Lim, Patrick St. Esprit, and Amy Farrington, with Bre Blair, Obba Babatundé, Deshae Frost, Rochelle Aytes, Susan Chuang, Chris L. McKenna, and David Gautreaux in recurring roles. The crime thriller centers on Sergeant Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson (Moore), a Los Angeles native and former Marine who’s been tapped to lead a new “last stop” Special Weapons And Tactics unit (S.W.A.T.). Thanks to his background, he is uniquely qualified to lead the team in a manner that also builds a bridge to the community he holds dear. Hondo’s group includes seasoned David “Deacon” Kay (Harrington), cocky newcomer Jim Street (Russell), canine trainer Christina “Chris” Alonso (Esco), expert driver Dominique Luca (Johnson), and informant-connected Victor Tan (Lim). Responsible for the management of all Metro Division S.W.A.T. units is Commander Robert Hicks (St. Esprit), a senior LAPD official with the Special Operations Bureau.
Airing on Wednesday nights, the fourth season of SWAT averages a 0.43 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 3.19 million viewers in the live+same day ratings. Compared to season three, that’s down by 25% in the demo and down by 21% in viewership. In the traditional ratings, the show ranks 20th out of this season’s 24 scripted CBS series.
Today, the network also renewed Blue Bloods (season 12), Bull (season six), Magnum PI (season four), and NCIS (season 19). The fate of fellow Wednesday night drama SEAL Team is still up in the air.
What do these shows all have in common? They are all…RENEWED.

What do you think? Have you enjoyed the SWAT TV show? Are you looking forward to watching the fifth season of this series on CBS?
I just heard SWAT has been canceled, BIG MISTAKE, everything is not & should not be about money!!! SWAT is one of the best shows on TV & I have followed Shemar Moore since Criminal Minds!! If you have any sense, please work it out to keep SWAT on TV & cancel some of the shows that are not good that are still on TV.
I love watching SWAT. It covers so many of today’s issues besides crime. Keep it going please
Please keep SWAT no matter what! It is absolutely one of the best shows out there!! Feel like I’m part of the “Family” when I watch it soo hype for season 5!! Even more hype for season 6
P.s
Please let there be a season 6
Swat, Bluetooth Bloods, Seal Team, Clarence they all need to be back on
Swat, Blue bloods, All rise, Equalizer must come back those are some of the best shows of CBS let’s do it.
RENEW SEALTEAM ONE OF THE BEDT ON TV!!!
I absolutely love SWAT. Shamar Moore is a fantastic actor. He proves leadership & friendship can go hand in hand.
Compared to early seasons, season 4 was really bad and appeared to more concerned with being woke than being entertaining. No wonder they lost nearly 25% of their audience. Go woke go broke as they say. I for one will not be watching season 5.
Swat is one of my favorite T.V. Shows Shamar Moore is an excellent actor and character pics for the team complement the shows episodes !!!
You have renewed our FAVORITES…Blue Bloods, NCIS, BULL and SWAT. Please SEAL TEAM also. Thank you!!!!
Yes, it makes me very happy that they have renewed SWAT. It’s one of my favorite shows. I am also glad that they renewed Blue Bloods and Magnum PI. What makes me sad though is that they have cancelled MacGyver. It was a favorite of mine also.
I am very happy that NCIS and SWAT are being renewed. NCIS is my absolute favorite TV show, and I’m completely and appropriately thrilled it stays away from political and social issues effecting our country. I watch tv to take my mind off my worries, not add to them with a slant. SWAT, is usually very good about that also. However there have been 2 episodes I turned off. There is enough drama going on these days, without having to watch the channels’ writers and editors personal opinions on them. Plus, these shows are interesting, emotional and have great actors.… Read more »
Continue to enjoy the SWAT and Blue Blood series and looking foreward tothe 2021-22 season. Also really enjoy Seat Team and recommend its renewal as well.
We love this show, glad it is renewed for season 5. We are not into sifi or any of the super heros stuff. I like all the characters & their stories.
SEAL Team should have been renewed before SWAT!
I like both and want SEAL Team renewed also!
