Quick Scoop

Here are the key points fans usually look for when asking “when did season 8 of SWAT come out” :

  • US TV premiere (CBS): Friday, January 31, 2025, in its usual Friday-night slot.
  • Initial season 8 date news: Earlier reports pegged the new season for an October 18 Friday premiere window on CBS before final scheduling settled, which is why you may see older articles mentioning October 2024.
  • Episode run: Season 8 episodes then continued airing through early 2025, with mid‑season episodes dated in late 2024 and early 2025 (for example, episode 9 is listed as airing January 31, 2025).

If you’re watching via streaming rather than live TV, season 8 arrives later on platforms (like Netflix), separate from the original CBS air date.
