On May 6, Shemar Moore reacted to CBS’s decision in a video posted on his Instagram account. “CBS, when I was hired to be Hondo in SWAT, received a lot of criticism for its lack of diversity.

But being abruptly told that the series is canceledwhen you made us believe last week – and the week before, and the week before that – that we would have a semblance of season 7 to at least say goodbye… So that we are suddenly told: ‘It’s finish’“, blurted out the actor, before saying: ” In my opinion, it’s not acceptable. I will get through this, but I’m upset because I worked like crazy to prove that I could do it, and I proved that I could do it.”.

It must be said that the detective series still brings together more than 6,000,000 of viewers in the United States.

CBS still managed a small Pyrrhic victory by truncating the season by 9 episodes, reducing it from a usual total of 22 to only 13. Fans 1 – CBS 1. Tie, ball in the center but final curtain for SWAT.
