Following the big premiere tonight on CBS, do you want to know a little bit more about SWAT season 8 episode 2 and what lies ahead?

Obviously, there are a few different directions we can go within this particular piece, but we do think it is worth noting that the parameters are different for the Shemar Moore series now, at least as opposed to where they were at this point last year. The presumption for a while was that season 7 would be the final one … until it wasn’t. Now, who knows long the show could go? There is a reset of sorts going on here with some new characters coming in, though there are a few fan favorites still around in addition to Hondo.

Now, we have a hard time understanding just what the stakes long-term will be entering SWAT season 8 episode 2. However, at the same time we do know that “Gang Unit” is going to have high stakes. Not only that, but the team will be squaring off with one of the more dangerous adversaries in some time. Take a look at the attached synopsis below:

“Gang Unit” – When a spree of brutal stash house robberies spills into L.A., 20-Squad must team up with the sheriff’s department’s gang unit to unmask a violent crew who leaves no witness alive, on S.W.A.T., Friday, Oct. 25 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, and streaming on Paramount+ (live and on-demand for Paramount+ with SHOWTIME subscribers, or on-demand for Paramount+ Essential subscribers the day after the episode airs)*.

In general, it is our sentiment that even with the changes, this show will remain an action drama with a lot of heart-pounding moments and great characters to boot. We just hope that even with a tighter budget and other challenges at this point in the show’s run, we do see stories that deliver.

What do you most want to see moving into SWAT season 8 episode 2 over on CBS?
