Starting a new thread for the series due to the series crossover from Fox to ABC.

ABC is swinging for the fences with content and nailed it with "the kiss" on the last episode that has America talking. This was huge on a traditional big three network and doing so with two characters one might not expect to have it happen. Apparently ratings are off the charts, top three on Hulu for instance.

They will lose most of their audience if they keep up this storyline.

Frankly they will probably leave anyway.

This show is called "911" and it is starting to be like a soap opera. They need more "911" calls and less personal relationships.

Yes, I can't believe they did this twist on us! I don't like it, but since I like the show overall, I guess I'll still watch. (Plus, SWAT's ending, so there won't hardly be any of my drama shows I get to watch anymore.)

The show needs more procedural and less telenovela.

I'm fascinated by the 911 calls. That's the interesting part.

The people - not so much.

Fortunately, I can fast forward during the personal stuff.

Unfortunately, I'm fast forwarding more than I'm watching.

Wait...all this brouhaha over two men sharing a kiss on TV? This is hilarious.
But I agree that the 911 calls are far and away the most compelling part of the show. No surprise there.
I'll hang with it for a bit longer.

Sorry, off topic but I heard this morning (on the radio) that they have decided to renew SWAT for an 8th season.

Yes, found out by now & already posted in the SWAT thread, but thanks!

As a gay man, I can say it is pretty significant weirdly enough in the year 2024.

A same sex kiss among women hasn't been a big deal but the triggered responses to two men are off the charts so yes, it sadly is still a "big deal".

Probably until it's more normalized as it is in real life, with first steps like this.
