Russell's departure is a significant loss for the series as it heads towards its final season with Hondo (Shemar Moore) and his team. Jim, a longstanding member of the team, faced challenges due to his impulsive nature but ultimately proved himself as a valuable asset on numerous missions.
Even though CBS decided to renew S.W.A.T., Jim's comeback is short-lived, with his final appearance planned for episode 5 of the 13-episode season. Similarly, Dominique Luca (Kenny Johnson) will also have a recurring role in the remaining episodes. While these changes may leave the team feeling incomplete, they also signify the conclusion of the series.
Jim's absence will be felt in the last episodes of the show, but his farewell in the two-hour special promises a touching and fitting conclusion for his character. This double episode will highlight the growth he has undergone throughout the series, providing a satisfying end to his story. However, even after his departure, S.W.A.T. will continue with 8 more episodes to come.
You can catch S.W.A.T. on CBS on Fridays and stream it on Paramount+.

Editor's P/S:
Alex Russell's departure from S.W.A.T. is a bittersweet moment for fans of the show. Russell has been a part of the series since its inception and has played a pivotal role as Officer Jim Street. His impulsive nature has often led to challenges, but he has always proven himself to be a valuable asset to the team. His exit will undoubtedly leave a void in the S.W.A.T. unit, but it also signifies the conclusion of the series. The two-hour special episode promises a fitting farewell for Street, highlighting his growth and providing a satisfying end to his story.
While it is sad to see Russell go, it is also exciting to anticipate the final episodes of S.W.A.T. The show has been a consistent performer for CBS, and it will be interesting to see how the writers wrap up the storylines and characters. With eight more episodes to come, there is still plenty of time for surprises and emotional moments.
