According to Deadline, CBS has officially announced the S.W.A.T. Season 8 renewal of its procedural action drama, starring Shemar Moore. This marks the second time that the long-running series was saved from cancellation.
“Here at CBS, we always ‘stay liquid’ and love a good dramatic twist, especially when it leads to an eighth season of S.W.A.T.!,” CBS executive Amy Reisenbach said in a statement. “The show continues to resonate with viewers thanks to our talented cast led by Shemar Moore and our amazing writers and producers who keep the show relevant and action-packed. We’re very pleased to renew it again and incredibly grateful to our partners at SONY, CBS Studios and Shemar for working so closely with us to bring it back for next season.”
Nearly a year ago, the network decided to cancel S.W.A.T. after six seasons. However, a few days later, CBS ultimately reversed its decision, and renewed the show for a seventh and final season, which is expected to conclude its 13-episode run this coming May 17.
What is S.W.A.T about?
“The series follows Daniel ‘Hondo’ Harrelson, an L.A. born and raised S.W.A.T. Sergeant who leads an elite tactical team that is the last stop in law enforcement in Los Angeles,” reads the synopsis. “Torn between loyalty to the community where he was raised and his brothers in blue, Hondo works to bridge the divide between his two worlds as he grapples with new parenthood alongside his wife Nichelle. Rounding out 20-Squad are David ‘Deacon’ Kay, a dedicated family man and experienced officer; Victor Tan, newly single and eager to embrace a leadership role on the team; and Zoe Powell, a cocky newcomer working to find her place on the squad. Finally, Commander Robert Hicks oversees all of Metro S.W.A.T. Led by Hondo, 20-Squad embraces their differences and works together to save lives and protect their city in an increasingly troubled world.”
Based on the 1975 series and 2003 movie of the same name, S.W.A.T. is executive produced by showrunners Andrew Dettmann and Shawn Ryan. The series also stars Jay Harrington, David Lim, Patrick St. Esprit, Rochelle Aytes and Anna Enger Ritch star. In addition to leading the cast, Moore is also executive producing alongside Justin Lin, Neal H. Moritz, Marney Hochman, Pavun Shetty, Billy Gierhart and James Scura.
