Shemar Moore Bids Emotional Goodbye to S.W.A.T. Fans After Eight Action-Packed Seasons

BBG News

Among the TV shows concluding or getting canceled in 2025, some long-lasting ones are included. One of these is CBS’ “S.W.A.T.”, which wrapped up its eight-season journey last Friday. This significant event brings an era to a close, as the Shemar Moore-fronted series might have been one of the most beloved shows on the Eye Network. As the series comes to an end, Moore chose to maintain positivity by posting pictures and a heartfelt message for the show’s viewers.

Shemar Moore, who plays Sergeant II Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson, has been expressing his desire for the CBS production not to end, as he thinks there’s still a lot of energy left in the high-octane series. Despite this, he recently used Instagram to convey some appreciation. He acknowledged the “families and fans” who have stayed with the show for so long, which appears to reflect his warm feelings about his time on the show.

To our fantastic S.W.A.T. family and fans,

Thank you for joining us on this eight-year journey! It’s been a breathtaking, exhilarating, and wonderful ride with you all. Thanks to your support, we’ve had the privilege of breathing life into these captivating characters across eight outstanding seasons. We can never fully express our gratitude!

Wishing you all the best – Keep staying fluid!

It’s probably quite unreal for the 55-year-old main actor to be in a situation where he has to bid farewell to his longtime coworkers after working together for almost a decade on this TV show. Although many people work with others for similar or even longer durations, the intense pressures of creating a show like this one mean that the Hondo actor and his team have undoubtedly faced numerous challenges. You can find his post, featuring those previously mentioned photos, further down.

Prior to the 2025 television lineup, the series S.W.A.T. experienced a turbulent ride between cancellations and revivals. In 2023, it was terminated after six seasons, but surprisingly, it found new life and was renewed for a seventh season. The pattern repeated in 2024 as the show was canceled once more, eventually being brought back for an eighth season. The announcement of this latest cancellation occurred in March, leaving both the cast and fans disheartened. The impending end of the series felt increasingly inevitable when the cast completed filming Season 8 several months ago.

During every instance of potential cancellation, Shemar Moore didn’t hesitate to speak out, using social media to galvanize fans in a bid to save the series. In March, Moore wrote an open letter to the fanbase and Hollywood alike, voicing his disappointment at the cancellations but also his pride that S.W.A.T. managed to dodge cancellation twice. Additionally, he reached out to Netflix, suggesting they might want to pick up the show, as they’ve done with other network productions.

It seems unlikely that the television series produced by Shawn Ryan and Aaron Rahsaan Thomas will dodge cancellation again. Nevertheless, there’s much for the cast and team to be proud of and grateful for, as they successfully created an engaging show over eight years that amassed a dedicated fanbase. Moreover, it’s worth noting that the procedural managed to survive several cancellations, which is quite remarkable. At this juncture, let’s express appreciation and positive energy towards Shemar Moore, his fellow actors, and the crew for their tireless efforts.

Fans yearning for more S.W.A.T., now that it’s off the air, can enjoy streaming its episodes with a subscription to Paramount+.
