TV show description:
Based on ABC‘s 1970s TV series and the 2003 feature film of the same name, the SWAT TV show on CBS is a police action drama centering on Sergeant Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson (Moore). A lifetime Los Angeles local and former Marine, Hondo has been tapped to lead a new “last stop” Special Weapons and Tactics unit.
Because he is L.A.-born and raised, Hondo feels intensely loyal to his “brothers in blue” and the people they serve. This makes him exceptionally qualified to lead the team and build a bridge between the force and the community.
David “Deacon” Kay (Harrington) is a seasoned, competent officer. Although he can’t help but feel overlooked for the top job, he is extremely loyal and committed to the team’s success. On the other hand, newcomer Jim Street (Russell) tends to be overconfident. Still, he has the potential to become a key player.
Hondo’s tactical unit also includes canine trainer Christina “Chris” Alonso (Esco), a skilled officer in her own right. Then there is Dominique Luca (Johnson), whose driving expertise ensures the team is able to get into and out of risky scenarios.
L.A. Metro Captain Jessica Cortez (Sigman), whose profession is her top priority, supervises the SWAT team. She and Hondo also have a personal relationship.
Finally, there’s Mumford (Onorati). Bold and self-assured, he heads up another L.A. unit and is certain of his own approach to situations. Although his group and Hondo’s are fierce rivals, they relish their competition.
With Hondo at the lead, the SWAT officers are devoted to their jobs and are willing to lay down their lives to protect and serve.

What do you think? Do you like the SWAT TV series? Should this TV show be cancelled or renewed for another season on CBS?
Watching the episode 17 4/13/18, was the most unrealistic police operations ever seen on TV. I don’t know who was providing the guidance on police tactics but it was terrible. The police movement and allowing the suspect handcuffed in front, in a secured building, etc. I don’t plan on watching this show again.
I love this show!! cant wait for the new episodes
Pathetic. A disgrace. Cancel it.
It sucks, it sucks it sucks. How many times does Shemar need to take his shirt off. All the actors are horrible. Waste of time. Watch Seal Team instead.
Love it. Please keep it.
Love this show. Keep it coming, Please
Love this show!!!!
I’m hooked on my SWAT. It’s a lot different from the original series. I don’t think the releationship between Jessica and Hondo is over. Jessica and Hondo could get married and end all the drama. Personally, I sense that the Commisioner has the hots for Jessica but he is keeping it on the under.
I really like swat. Hope it comes back. The storyline is more than just being a swat team member.
This show is wicked love it season 2 here we come Mama here comes that man 😉
Great show. Moore is fantastic.
Love this show. Do not Cancel
Good, but not as exhilarating as The Brave. Keep Shemar around, he is great to look at, good acting skills.
Not too thrilled with SWAT but I do love looking at Shemar Moore! He definitely makes the show, however I won’t watch again.
Please bring back Hondo and the team. I love this show and would hate to see you not bring it back. I love the whole team especially Hondo mmmm
