S.W.A.T. Season 6 Plot and Cast

S.W.A.T. is based on a 1975 series of the same name which followed the operations of a SWAT team in an unnamed Californian city. The 1975 series starred Steve Forrest as Lt “Hondo” Harrelson, the unit’s leader. Though it only ran for two seasons, the show spawned a spin-off The Rookies, and a 2003 feature film that had Samuel L. Jackson as Sergeant II Dan “Hondo” Harrelson.

The makers of the show have not revealed much about the plot of the show. However, it focuses on Sergeant Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson, a former marine and Los Angeles-bred SWAT sergeant who runs a highly-trained, specialized tactical unit in Los Angeles. S.W.A.T. has been praised for its approach to handling stories that involve tensions between police and the African-American community, as the show’s lead character is recognized as a bridge between the force and the community.

The main cast members for Season 6 include Shemar Moore, Alex Russell, Lina Esco, Kenny Johnson, Jay Harrington, David Lim, Amy Farrington, and Patrick St. Esprit. Since it is a new season, we might get to see some new faces.
