Tuning in to catch the latest episode of 'SEAL Team' Season 3? Prepare to be disappointed as the show has been delayed this week. Instead of the action-packed series, CBS is airing a country music special titled, 'Garth & Trisha Live!'.

The official description for the show reads, “Garth Brooks and his wife, Trisha Yearwood, will perform live from their home recording studio. This is an intimate concert for viewers looking for the comfort and shared joy of music during this difficult time. They will bring their unique blend of casual style, remarkable chemistry and shared love of music to a television audience, emphasizing the message that we’re all in this together.”

Fans seem to be pretty bummed. "I'm bummed #SealTeam isn't on tonight. I can't believe #CBS bumped it for some country music thing," one wrote and another posted, "No #SEALTeam tonight with Philadelphian native and Cat&Birdy Warneroonie PinkyBrainy Big Cartoonie Show fan, @David_Boreanaz."

A few fans simply complimented the show for its amazing storyline. "Utterly adore the truly fantastic @SEALTeamCBS. @David_Boreanaz as the bad-ass Navy Seal Jason Hayes leads a great cast in 1 of the best shows currently on TV. A sheer action-packed thrill-ride. Strap in, hold your breath & let's do this. Can't wait for more.... #SealTeam #Hooked," one tweet read.

Another said, "Dear Lord, does @David_Boreanaz actually age? What is his secret & can I please have it. Did he just play a vampire on TV, or is he actually 1 in real-life as well. Truly bad-ass as Navy Seal Jason Hayes on the utterly fantastic @SEALTeamCBS."

Well, it may be delayed but we still have some scoop on the episode. Titled 'Drawdown', the official summary of the episode reads, "As Bravo Team begins their deployment in Afghanistan during peace negotiations, Sonny reports to an Air Force base in Texas to serve his disciplinary training action, where he gets reacquainted with Hannah (Rachel Boston), a childhood friend."

Directed by Max Thieriot, the episode will see new changes in the lives of the Bravo Team, especially after the paths of Sonny Quinn (AJ Buckley), Jason Hayes (David Boreanaz) and Clay Spenser (Max Thieriot) was split up last week. Sonny will now report to an Air Force base in Texas to serve his disciplinary training action, where he will also meet his childhood friend. Wondering who she is? Here's a quick introduction to her character.

So, when will the episode air next? Get set to watch Episode 17 next Wednesday, April 8 at 9 pm ET/PT on the CBS Television Network.
