Agree. The show pleasantly surprised me. I was expecting more of a Moore love-fest for the ladies (based on the pre-release previews). Ended up being a pretty good weekly cop show. Looking forward to season 2.

Season 1 was pretty good, not great overall. Had some good action episodes, but it did get a little heavy at points. But overall I was entertained. it didn't feel as cookie cutter as many cop dramas.

Fun episode to start season 2. Some good action and a cool chopper sequence. I guess Street is going to stay a beat cop awhile longer.
Kind of ironic that SWAT's storyline used a huge earthquake like 911's premiere.
I wasn't feeling Hondo's new apparent love interest. Plus she's got an estranged husband too as the end showed.
Read that SWAT took a hit ratings-wise as it was airing against football. Last year SWAT aired after football finished in November. A write up I saw said that SWAT kind of shares the same audience as football (male viewers)

Fire bombing plot from this past week's episode was entertaining. Hondo's new girlfriend was a big part of it. I'm not really a fan of her. She's not a very good actress. Stephanie Sigman is a much better actress than her. And now it looks like they're bringing back Michael Trucco next week to cause some trouble.
Just noticed that the 2nd SWAT leader Mumford is no longer on the show.
I guess they dropped Peter Onarati because the Commander Hicks is now a regular and in the opening credits.

Season 2 has been great. But, I kind of get why this thread has been dead since September. It's a procuedural and most of these simply don't bring out any discussion here. You'll never get 200+ posts for a procedural here.
The school shooting episode was especially powerful and timely. And I think they've developed all the characters really well. I did like Debbie Allen being cast as Hondo's mom.

Re: S.W.A.T. (CBS) -- Season 2 Thread -- Premieres 9/27/18
I've been binge-watching SWAT over the last week. Fell way behind, but catching up with CBS All-Access. I'm through 16 of the 22 that aired. The season finale is this Thursday. It actually makes it easier watching it this way vs. my DVR records.
Anyways. action is still solid. Shemar Moore is great as Hondo.
A few thoughts:
Chris dating that couple is just weird. It feels very forced just to give her a "love life"
I also think it's a way to try to keep her and Street apart as it's pretty obvious that Street is into her.
Loved the episode where Chris and Jessica went to Mexico to go against the cartel and most of it was in Spanish. Very authentic look and feel.
The School shooting episode was really well done. Some really tense scenes.
Hondo breaking up with that lawyer was good. I felt no chemistry between them
And I have a feeling that rapist who attempted to attack Hondo's sister will be seen again since it wasn't resolved. Same goes with that racist cop in Arizona.
I like Deacon a lot. I like that they show he's not perfect and struggling with money along with trying to be a good Dad and husband.
I did not realize until recently that Shawn Ryan's (the EP of the show) wife Cathy Ryan, who also starred in The Shield, plays the SWAT team psychologist.
I realize this is a CBS cop procedural with a long season and most of you simply have no time or patience for this kind of show. But, it's a top notch well directed action show with some good chemistry and character development.

Finally caught up. Saw episode 22 that had Billings from The Shield. Pretty clever to make SWAT take place in the same universe as The Shield.
It's too bad that David Marciano and Kenny Johnson didn't have a scene together. He should have said something like...."You look really familiar"
I thought it was amusing that Deacon's wife got upset with Chris after she told their daughter about her lifestyle. And she said she would not have made her their new daughter's god mother if she knew that.

Good last episode but the street mother and darryl substories just suck and drain the screen when they are on
As long as the show is mostly action, i will keep watching
they have set the scene, definitely plenty of more possibilities for more Shield cameos
Street could have a relationship with the Paula Garcas character
Vic Mackay returning as a bounty hounter
Acevada as the Mayor

Finished the season finale last night.
Overall, it was a good season. I think it was better than the 1st season. Sure the ending with the big attack at city hall was kind of predictable, but it was an entertaining.
I'm glad they put behind Deacon's troubles. He's a good dude and he's kind of the moral center of the show.
Glad it didn't end on a cliffhanger and it was a complete self contained season. Hondo deciding to take time off to go on vacation with Darrell was a nice warm ending.
I do hope we don't see Street's mother anymore. She got to be an annoyance. I also hope in season 3 they lose Chris' storyline with the couple. It does appear that Street might be moving on with the Commander's daughter.

The episode itself was just alright. Not one of the better SWAT episodes. The drone bomber thing was a little silly. But, seeing the team back together again is always cool.
and it looks like the Lt. who helped out in this episode is a permanent new cast member, essentially replacing Cortez.
I'm guessing Hondo's Dad probably has cancer judging by him coughing up blood at the end
Minor nitpick: So Hondo and Darryl just return from a 3-month trip to Australia. Why was he armed with his weapon and badge coming home from the airport and then entering his house? Even though Hondo is a cop, he could not carry that on a plane. Unless they dropped by headquarters, but that wouldn't make sense just coming back from vacation. He can always get that coming into work.

Big fan of the show. Sorry to see that the ratings are falling like a rock. Dropping cast and then replacing with horrible characters isn’t the way to get renewed for another season. Lynch doesn’t bring anything positive to the show. Replace ASAP or watch the ratings continue to slide. Sad to say...

And everything is down in network, not just SWAT. The days of 15-20M viewers per week on shows are long gone.
for the most part, no one cares about live overnight TV ratings anymore. The are so many other factors that keep shows on the air.
and what dramatic changes are you talking about? Mumford and Cortez? Mumford retired and he was hardly used at all in season 2. Cortez was the Captain, but once they established that she and Hondo could never have a relationship, there was no point in keeping the pretty Captain on the show, so they wrote her out in the probably the most logical way possible. The core of the team is still together. Lynch is only a minor supporting character.

Except they're going to use Lynch to create conflict rather than fighting for the team like you would think a seasoned LAPD veteran would do. Her character should have been from the outside with no LAPD credentials to be more believable.

Though with that being said, I wouldn't be surprised at all if CBS browbeated Sony for the season 3 renewal of S.W.A.T. with (undisclosed) terms which are extremely favorable to CBS.
If Sony still has any syndication intentions for this show, most likely they will bend over backwards to get a season 4 renewal next year.
