Hallmark Channel version of SWAT
amcguire-3168623 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This show went from preachy to this very Hallmark Channel version of SWAT. No edge at all. Not all cops are sweet as sugar, even if they are good guys. In this episode, the writers insisted that Luca be nearly childlike, while upset about the department's armored vehicle being stolen. They did actor Kenny Anderson no favors with this script. To see a grown man act this way about truck being stolen, and referring to it as a "her" was weird to me. Also, I miss Lina Esco on this show. Sadly, I can see why she left. They still cannot write for a woman. God, not every lady on the show has to be a crusade with the sole purpose of making the guys feel guilty of something. The showrunners are men, so I don't know why they insists on this. Is it pandering to me, a woman? I hope not. I can see right through it.

what a mess

Guess the showrunners and writers have run out of stories to film because this one was a mess.. robbers steal and armored vehicle like that? Lol sure sure

oh of course we had that woke moment with commander hicks saying he was sorry for being a man and not voting to have a female as a swat officer.. which made me remember chris when she was debating deacon about physical standards and it was ridiculous her rationalizing women doing less than men in order to pass.. dude, cant make that up..

anyway, and then FBI girl gets in the way and it is all good.. let us play the victim, back in the office with commander and hondo.. she plays the victim card.. she has a theory with no proof just a hunch out her ass, and instead of trying to get evidende to back her claims.. no she needs to use the female card... oh my god, it is not only the police, also the FBI that does not believe in the women.. oh boy..

imagine if a man used that? Ohh my boss does not want to go with my gut feeling on this one.. well, does not matter that i dont have anything to prove what i am saying.. it must be that he does not believe i am capable of it just because i am a man..

that sounds ridiculous right? Yeah.. just like the girl..

anyway, case was ridiculous so i wont even bother.

Lots of mistakes
wishmaster_tr11 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
In the beginning robbers asked hostages to give all the phones but next scene 2 women are running with their phones to a meeting room. And the biggest mistake was at minute 21:21 FBI agent doesn't even has magazine on his rifle, but when she was going our of police car it was on the rifle :D how can this be possible? How no one from the crew can miss this?

There are so many other questions can be asked about the episode and whole concept such as where is the police while swat vehicle is being stolen? Where is the mobile swat command center? Where are snipers those should also watch perimeter? Why is SWAT doing police business after they are done with hostage situation? Are they also detectives going door by door and doing interviews and investigations?
