Line 53:
* ''[[24]]'' features numerous variations of SWAT teams and federal response units, and CTU has their tactical teams. They generally serve as a [[Redshirt Army]], as the phrase "we're setting up a perimeter" is synonymous with "the badguys are already escaping." When the tactical teams ''do'' manage to contain the badguys, however, the resulting gunfight is usually a [[Curb Stomp Battle]] in favor of the good guys.
* In ''[[The Cape (2010 TV series)|The Cape]]'', the local city's SWAT units are actually [[Private Military Contractors]] that serve as the [[Faceless Goons]] for the [[Mega Corp|Ark Corporation]].
* ''
* SWAT teams have appeared from time to time on ''[[Burn Notice]]'', usually forcing Team Westen the additional challenge of avoiding shootouts they can't win.
* FBI Hostage Rescue Teams also show from time to time on ''[[Criminal Minds]]''; in one episode they deploy to protect the FBI building from an UnSub who's a [[Retired Badass|retired Navy SEAL]]. {{spoiler|He gets into the building before they're even deployed.}}
* And then there's the great grand-daddy of them all, ''[[S.W.A.T.]]'', which ran for two seasons on [[ABC]] during [[The Seventies]].
