S.W.A.T. canceled after eight seasons, ending in May

S.W.A.T., a popular procedural drama on CBS, has been canceled again, making it the third time the show has faced termination. Despite CBS renewing nine other shows last month, S.W.A.T. will wrap up after eight seasons. The series finale is set to air in May 2025, and fans are preparing to say goodbye to the 20-Squad team for good. Recently, lead actor Shemar Moore shared a heartfelt video on Instagram with his co-stars discussing their experiences on the show. They expressed their gratitude for the time spent together, both on-screen and off. Emotions ran high as many of the cast members held back tears, showcasing the strong bond they formed during the series. Although the cancellation news is disheartening, there is still hope among fans and cast alike. Moore encouraged followers to "make some noise" and even provided a link to a petition aimed at saving the show. The cast remains hopeful that S.W.A.T. could be picked up by another network or streaming service, as has happened with other shows in the past. The cancellation of S.W.A.T. adds to CBS's decision to end several fan-favorite dramas, including two FBI spinoffs. As the series approaches its finale, both the cast and fans are braced for an emotional farewell. The final episodes are set to air, with new content returning on April 4 at 10 p.m. ET.
