Honestly? Yeah, I totally get why you’re upset — and you’re definitely not alone. The news that the original 20-Squad team won’t be returning for S.W.A.T.’s finale has hit fans hard. After six+ seasons of watching these characters grow, fight, bond, and bleed together, it feels like we’re being denied the proper send-off they deserve — and we deserve.
Let’s be real — when a long-running series wraps up, you kind of expect that final emotional punch. That moment where the whole team comes together one last time. A throwback to where it all started. Closure. Nostalgia. Something that honors the journey.
So yeah, to not get that reunion? It stings.
Why Fans Are Frustrated
-
No Luca? No Mumford? No Street? For fans who’ve been watching since Day 1, these are core members of the team — their absences matter.
-
Closure is important. We’ve invested in these characters. Their arcs deserve more than being brushed off or forgotten in the final episodes.
-
It feels incomplete. A finale without the OGs isn’t just missing characters — it’s missing heart.
Could Things Still Change?
TV loves a last-minute surprise. While it hasn’t been announced, it’s always possible that there’s a cameo, a flashback, or even a post-credits nod in store. But if it doesn’t happen, it’s totally fair for fans to feel let down.
Bottom Line?
You’re absolutely allowed to be mad. Frustrated. Disappointed. The final chapter of a show like S.W.A.T. should feel like a celebration of everyone who made it what it was — not just whoever’s left standing.
But hey, if the show taught us anything, it’s that a strong team always leaves a legacy. And even if they’re not there for the finale, the OG 20 Squad will always be part of what made S.W.A.T. unforgettable.
