S.W.A.T. fans had quite the roller coaster of a weekend that ended on a high note, as CBS reversed their decision and un-canceled the cop procedural for one more season. Fans were appropriately upset about the series being canceled, and Shemar Moore even spoke out about it, using pretty dirty language while calling it a mistake. Last night the network and Sony Pictures TV came to an agreement and renewed S.W.A.T. for a 13-episode final season. Of course, fans were as happy as ever.

As soon as news broke, fans took to social media in droves to share their excited-ness that 20-Squad will indeed be back for another season. Needless to say, they freaked out over it and were very happy to know that the two-part season finale will not be the end. And even though it will only be for 13 episodes, it is definitely better than nothing.

'S.W.A.T.' Fans are Very Happy Over the News

One fan wrote, "Season 7 is coming!!!" Another said, "13-episode season if it comes back for a season 7!! OMG! CBS is rolling out the fall schedule on Wednesday!"

You Might Even Say Freaking Out Over it

"Amazing how in 3 days, fans can make magic and voices were heard," a fan said. "CBS finally is bringing back S.W.A.T. for Season 7 but it's the final season. Pure rubbish as it's a good series with great ratings. Lets hope another TV station picks S.W.A.T. up."

"Looks like @swatcbs gets a season 7 after all! Congrats to the show and everyone involved #swat," one fan wrote. Another exclaimed, "YESSSS #SWAT !!! Coming back i can't wait Season 7 we love y'all."

Fans are Ecstatic They Get a Proper Goodbye

"#SWAT Getting renewed for 1 last season is awesome. Sucks its gonna end, but at least stories can wrap up, and not just suddenly stop," one fan shared. "Oh happy days! #SWAT is no longer canceled, but renewed for a final season and a chance to say a proper goodbye." Another fan said.

Power to the Fans

"Woohoo… Our family is coming back for a S7 !!! I'm so happy & relieved that we're going to get a real closure," one fan expressed. "The cast, crew & writers deserved it for all the hard they have done. #SWAT is the best show ever !!! Thank you for listening to us."
