S.W.A.T.(TV show/series, 2017-)

S.W.A.T. is an American action drama series based on the 1975–76 television series of the same name. Aaron Rahsaan Thomas and Shawn Ryan developed the new series, which premiered on CBS on November 2, 2017, and is produced by Original Film, CBS Studios and Sony Pictures Television (the latter is a successor to the producer of the original 1975 series, Spelling-Goldberg Productions). The series stars Shemar Moore with an ensemble cast and follows Sergeant Daniel "Hondo" Harrelson (Moore) and Twenty Squad, a police Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team operating in Los Angeles, California. The series was partially inspired by real-life experiences shared by police officers, adding a level of authenticity to its portrayal of law enforcement. It also draws inspiration from both the original 1975 series and the 2003 film adaptation, with the 2017 reboot maintaining a similar premise and reintroducing several characters from the 2003 film. S.W.A.T. exists in a shared television universe with Ryan's FX crime drama The Shield, solidified by an appearance from the character Detective Steve Billings (played by David Marciano) from The Shield. The series received three Primetime Emmy Award nomina... ()
