Daniel "Hondo" Harrelson, a Los Angeles S.W.A.T. lieutenant, is assigned to lead a highly skilled unit in the community where he grew up. Torn between loyalty to the streets, where the cops are sometimes the enemy, and allegiance to his brothers in blue, he strategically straddles the two worlds. Hondo encourages his team to rely on communication and respect over force and aggression, but when a crisis erupts, these unflinching men and women are prepared to put their tactical training to the test.

See more Jasper H @jasperjjhe 11/13/2023 SWAT is one of the most realistic yet entertaining law enforcement, military, and combat TV shows out there. The new season definitely got off to an intense start in Thailand. Everything felt authentic in the first episode, with a storyline that was shockingly original and a plot that was gripping to watch. See more thanatos i @Thanatos0042 05/17/2021 This season was pretty good. There was a fair balance of story, characters and action. Some of it is turning a bit on the political, sjw culture side but it's not too heavy in this season, comparatively speaking. See more 04/30/2020 If you're into crime shows with a little action.
