SWAT Season 7 Debuts on Netflix Ahead of CBS Premiere of Season 8

The long-running procedural drama “SWAT” has captured fans’ attention once again with new streaming developments. Previously, viewers could access only the first six seasons of the series on Netflix. However, in a collaboration with CBS, the streaming giant has now made the seventh season available, just ahead of the eighth season premiere on television.

The show’s lead, Shemar Moore, announced the news on October 3, sharing his excitement in a video message. “What’s goody? What’s goody?” Moore, who portrays the character Hondo, remarked. “It’s your boy, Shemar Moore, a.k.a. Hondo. Here come that man from ‘SWAT.’ October 4. It’s going down. Season 7 of ‘SWAT’ back on Netflix. Let’s go.”

Fans quickly responded with enthusiasm upon learning they could revisit the latest season on the streaming platform. Comments flooded in expressing excitement, with viewers eager to catch up on the series before the new episodes air. One fan exclaimed, “Omg SWAT is hot on the case,” while another added, “Yes let’s do this thing!!!”

The CBS broadcast for season 8 commences with the episode titled “Vanished,” set to air on October 18. The episode will center on a case intimately connected to Hondo, involving the disappearance of students and their bus driver. Meanwhile, the team must adapt to new changes, including the inclusion of a new member in the 20-Squad.

For fans eagerly awaiting the next developments in “SWAT,” CBS issued a statement announcing a subsequent episode, “Gang Unit,” scheduled for October 25. This episode embroils the 20-Squad with the sheriff’s department’s gang unit to tackle brutal stash house robberies occurring in Los Angeles.

Season 8 of “SWAT” will be available on CBS, and for streaming, it will feature on Paramount+ with certain access variations depending on subscription tiers.
