[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the Fire Country Season 2 finale “I Do.”] The good news: The wait shouldn’t be too long to find out what’s next after a couple of cliffhangers to end Fire Country Season 2. Bode (Max Thieriot), after walking out of Gabriela’s (Stephanie Arcila) wedding to Diego (Rafael de la Fuente), turns to his uncle, Luke (Michael Trucco), in hopes he can pull strings to get him back to firefighting Asap. Manny (Kevin Alejandro), with a warrant out for his arrest, evades the law long enough to walk Gabriela down the aisle before surrendering to them. Eve (Jules Latimer), who has been crushing it as Three Rock captain lately, gets a job offer to oversee the whole program but turns it down. And Bode and Jake’s (Jordan Calloway) high school classmate, Rick (Adam Aalderks), returns to Edgewater and reveals he might be Genevieve’s biological father.

Morena Baccarin‘s Fire Country spinoff, Sheriff Country, may not be premiering until the 2025-2026 broadcast season, but that doesn’t mean you’ll have to wait until then to see more of Mickey Fox. “We’ll see more of Mickey and even maybe more people in her world in Fire Country Season 3, executive producer Tia Napolitano tells TV Insider. “She’s part of Edgewater, and we’re just expanding the Edgewater universe. So I think it’ll feel like coming home when you finally are able to tune into Sheriff Country, even though it’s in 2025.” Max Thieriot, Fire Country star, co-creator, executive producer, and director of the episode that introduced Mickey, agrees. “Before we get to launch Sheriff Country, I think there’s also a lot more to unpack with Mickey. Obviously we tried to really get out as much backstory as we possibly could in that episode,...

Spoiler Alert: This story contains details from the season finale of Fire Country on CBS.
It’s become a well-worn trope in TV weddings; a heartsick man (or woman) is stuck in a pew while he watches the love of his life exchange vows with someone else.
But the only ‘I do’ viewers heard in the May 17 episode of Fire Country came from the mouth of Gabriela’s dad Manny (Kevin Alejandro). It wasn’t uttered by Gabriela (Stephanie Arcila) or Diego (Rafael de la Fuente) at the altar.
Here, Thieriot addresses the cliffhanger and whether there’s still a chance that Bode and Gabriela will have a future in season 3.

The Fire Country series gives fans a unique twist on an oversaturated niche in the TV industry.
It's not the first show to focus on fire-related storylines or feature a main character who's been on the wrong side of the law.
But Fire Country might be the first show in which we actually like our bad-boy inmates enough to want to see them free from prison confinement.
Fans fell in love with Bode Leone (formerly Donovan) in Fire Country Season 1 as he transitioned from a prison inmate to a heroic (despite for selfish reasons) inmate firefighter.
Throughout the first season, Bode -- played by the talented and sexy Max Thieriot -- hooked viewers with his unusual blend of self-righteous bravery and a higher moral code.
Yeah, kinda unusual for someone who's been in prison.
But Bode's hero complex isn't surprising, given his history.
Firefighting seems to be a family trade.

“There will be a wedding,” Fire Country star Billy Burke promises of the upcoming May 17 finale. “What transpires at that wedding is in question, and Bode [Max Thieriot] might be rethinking his relationship status in the whole scheme of what he’s got in front of him.” Before that finale, however, everyone’s heading to the campaign fire in Episode 9, airing May 10, and as seen in the photo above, Bode and his ex, Gabriela (Stephanie Arcila), whose wedding to Diego (Rafael de la Fuente) is the one coming up, will have a conversation. This comes after Gabriela’s mom (Paola Núñez) surprised her by showing up at the Firefighters’ Ball—off an invite from Diego—and talked to both her exes, Bode and Jake (Jordan Calloway). and Roberta certainly didn’t seem to think that it’s over for her daughter and Bode. “I think that’s a special moment in the sense of,...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Fire Country Season 2 Episode 8 “It’s Not Over.”] It’s a mix of good and bad news throughout the latest Fire Country, which does end with Three Rock in a better place but also with us worried about one of the Leones. The gala and attempt to impress the governor (Catherine Lough Haggquist) does end up being a success, thanks to speeches from both Eve (Jules Latimer) and Bode (Max Thieriot) and the latter being among those who leap into action when a fire breaks out. But, as everyone learns, it was actually Luke (Michael Trucco) who recommended the fire camp be shut down (for financial reasons). In other Leone family drama, Vince’s (Billy Burke) hand tremor is a serious (heart-stopping) concern, but one only Gabriela (Stephanie Arcila) knows about, and he plans to keep it that way for now as everyone’s rolling out to help with the campaign fire.

CBS is blowing the Fire Country franchise wide open.
Coming off a strong backdoor pilot for a Morena Baccarin-led spin-off, the network has officially ordered Sheriff Country.
The network says the show follows the “straight-shooting sheriff Mickey Fox, the stepsister of Cal Fire’s division chief Sharon Leone, who investigates criminal activity as she patrols the streets of small-town Edgewater while contending with her ex-con father and a mysterious incident involving her wayward daughter.”
It’s a compelling logline that expands ever so slightly on the initial conflicts revealed to viewers in the recent backdoor pilot.
News of the series order would naturally make viewers think it earned a slot in the 2024-2025 TV season, but CBS has revealed it won’t premiere until the 2025-2026 TV season.
The decision means we have a long wait before we delve back into Mickey’s storyline. Perhaps Baccarin will make more...

While announcing its schedule for the 2024-25 TV season Thursday, CBS also got a head start on the season after that.
The network has formally greenlit Sheriff Country, a spinoff of its second-year drama Fire Country. Morena Baccarin (Deadpool, Gotham) will star, reprising her role from an April Fire Country episode that set up the spinoff.
Sheriff Country won’t premiere, however, until the 2025-26 season. CBS Entertainment president told reporters Thursday that the extra time will give the network breathing room to get the show right.
“We do long-term development at CBS now,” Reisenbach said. “[The extra year] gives us plenty of time to cast it and figure out how we want to produce it. It’s a huge opportunity for us and speaks to the kind of development we want to be doing.”
CBS also has three new dramas on tap for 2024-25 in a reworking of Matlock starring Kathy Bates...

If you read the headline and are asking yourselves, pilots? what pilots? — you are not wrong. It’s been largely a 2024 pilot season without pilots. A grand total of maybe one of them is expected to factor into any fall decisions as the broadcast networks prepare to unveil their schedules, starting with CBS tomorrow, May 2.
Needless to say, the broadcast pilot season is no longer the industry obsession it once was this time of year, with back-to-back disruptions from the pandemic and the dual Hollywood strikes providing the proverbial final nail in the coffin of the decades-old pilot cycle. But for tradition’s sake, here are some insights into the networks’ current development plans.
There is no more stacked lineup for next season than CBS’ with three new drama series, Young Gibbs prequel NCIS: Origins; Matlock, starring Kathy Bates; and Watson, headlined by Morris Chestnut; and two new comedies, Poppa’s House,...

“The finale ends crazy. I know last year was crazy,” Fire Country star, creator, and executive producer Max Thieriot says. Season 1 ended with it looking like Bode (Thieriot) would be getting his freedom, only for him to shock his friends and family at his parole hearing by taking responsibility for drugs at Three Rock. He wasn’t back in prison long, though, and was back at Three Rock by the end of the Season 2 premiere. Now, starting with Season 2 Episode 8, “we really start building this arc for a lot of these characters to where they end up landing in Episode 10. And so I think it’s really fun to be able to follow that from [Episodes] 8, 9, and 10 and sort of try and predict where things are going to end up,” Thieriot tells TV Insider. “Because I think maybe some people will guess some things, but there’s certainly things that people are not going to guess.

One thing is clear on Fire Country: There will always be love between Bode (Max Thieriot) and Gabriela (Stephanie Arcila). But right now, she’s planning to marry someone else, and Bode spent a significant amount of time with Diego (Rafael De La Fuente) while the paramedic tried to save Cara‘s (Sabina Gadecki) life in the fifth episode of the season. But could Bode actually stand back and watch Gabriela marry someone else? “We’re going to find out, I’ll tell you that,” Thieriot tells TV Insider. “It’s like his heart is split, right? One part of his heart really just wants the best for her. And after this experience in Episode 5, he really believes that Diego is a great person for her to be with. But then I think the other side of his heart is breaking into a million pieces because he believes that she is his person.

With Max Thieriot star, creator, executive producer, and occasional director of Fire Country on CBS (currently airing its second season and already renewed for a third), he is busy. But with Seal Team, on which he played Clay Spenser for six seasons until his character was shockingly killed off (due to scheduling with Fire Country), ending with its upcoming seventh and final season, we can’t help but wonder if we could see Clay one more time, in some sort of flashback. “I would’ve loved to have gone and done that, but I think they’re preparing to film the rest of their season right now, and I know they’re going to Colombia,” Thieriot tells TV Insider. “So I don’t think, as far as I’m aware of, unfortunately there’s not any plan for that, unless they call me at the last minute.” When we spoke...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Fire Country Season 2 Episode 6 “Alert the Sheriff.”] Fire Country could be expanding with a new spinoff, centered on the sheriff’s office, and the latest episode introduces Morena Baccarin as Mickey, who also happens to be Sharon’s (Diane Farr) estranged sister. It’s not a backdoor pilot—this is very much an episode of Fire Country, though one that does introduce us to a different part of Edgewater—but it does give us an idea of what we could see, in part, if a new series does happen. We meet Mickey in a helicopter, chasing down a suspect for money laundering; when he dumps the cash out, the Three Rock inmates immediately grab it, then Sharon’s the one to bring it to the sheriff’s office. It’s through the scenes with Sharon and Bode that we get to know more about Mickey. (They’re ...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Fire Country Season 2 Episode 6 “Alert the Sheriff.”] “I didn’t sleep much, but it was a lot of fun,” series star, creator, and executive producer Max Thieriot says of directing the latest episode of Fire Country. That’s because a lot happens. It introduces Morena Baccarin as Mickey, Sharon’s (Diane Farr) estranged sister. (Mickey also arrested Thieriot’s Bode in the past.) An inmate, after realizing he’ll probably die of cancer before he earns his freedom, escapes Three Rock; Mickey, with Bode’s help, tracks him and the corrupt sheriff down. And the paternity results come in, revealing that Bode is, in fact, not Genevieve’s (Alix West Lefler) dad. Below, Thieriot talks about that paternity reveal, what it means for Bode, introducing Mickey, and more. Plus, let us know your thoughts on the potential new sheriff-centric series we could see here. Bode isn’t Genevieve’s father.

I think everyone’s relationships will be tested,” executive producer Tia Napolitano tells TV Insider of Edgewater and any potential character or relationship breakdowns going forward. “Everyone’s emotional state will be tested. We’re back grieving someone, which is kind of an area we really explored in the pilot where the death of Riley loomed so big, and now we have the death of Cara very fresh, a very fresh wound in our world. So I think everyone is going to experience a test of their fortitude.” At the end of the latest episode, Jake (Jordan Calloway) is watching over Cara’s daughter Genevieve (Alix West Lefler), who might also be his best friend Bode’s (Max Thieriot...

Spoiler Alert! This story contains plot points from Friday’s episode of Fire Country on CBS.
In Friday’s episode dubbed “This Storm Will Pass,” the Edgewater firefighters encounter their first firenado that ends up taking the life of someone very close to the team.
Here, showrunner Tia Napolitano and executive producers Joan Rater and Tony Phelan explain why it made sense to say goodbye to a character who was first introduced in season one, and how the Cal Fire team — especially Bode (Max Thieriot) — will respond going forward.
Deadline: So was this your first firenado?
Joan Rater: Yes, we’re firenado virgins?
Tia Napolitano: We ask all the writers to come in with the most interesting incidents, big or small, at the top of the season. Someone pitched a firenado. Obviously that’s on the big end of the spectrum and we all gravitated toward it really early.

Bode’s father, mother, and ex-girlfriend—because he needs someone to know as a fire tornado rages around them. But then it all takes a turn, when it becomes clear that Jake’s girlfriend Cara (Sabina Gadecki)—he was thinking of proposing!—is dying of injuries sustained in the ambulance crash at the end of the previous episode.

While taking cover under the fire engine during an extremely rare and dangerous fire tornado in “This Storm Will Pass,” Vince remarks it’s “something to tell the grandkid,” suggesting that he and Sharon somehow found out that Cara’s (Sabina Gadecki) daughter Genevieve (Alix West Lefler) may be Bode’s (Max Thieriot). “You really think we’re going to get to tell her anything?” Sharon asks.

It's not uncommon to see a successful TV show start talking about spinoffs. We have seen it done on several franchises, from FBI to NCIS to the One Chicago universe.
With the difficulty of getting high rankings and extra seasons, it makes sense (sort of) for TV execs to expand a storyline with new characters to turn into spinoffs. Why take the chance on a new series when you know you've got a current hit?
However, these moves also risk overexposure for the characters we love. I love a good crossover as much as the next person. But sometimes they be doing too much.
Is that the future for the already flailing ongoing series Fire Country and its new potential upcoming spinoff Sheriff Country? Let's discuss!

Fire Country has found immense success on Friday nights for CBS.
The firefighting drama stars Max Thieriot from Seal Team (Clay Spenser) and Bates Motel (Dylan Massett). He plays Bode Donovan (Leone).
The network has had lots of success with its NCIS Universe and the trio of FBI shows, so CBS wants to see if a Fire Country spin-off will work.
An upcoming episode of Fire Country is called Alert the Sheriff, and it is a planned backdoor pilot.
If CBS is happy with fan response and how the new characters work within the world of Fire Country, that episode will springboard into a new show called Sheriff Country.
This is called a backdoor pilot, where the characters from a planned show appear first on the primary show. Main characters for NCIS: Los Angeles appeared in a two-episode arc of NCIS, while Chicago P.D. characters first appeared on Chicago Fire for NBC.

Fire Country is getting the franchise treatment, and an upcoming episode of the original series will give us our first taste of the spinoff.
Fire Country Season 2 Episode 6 — airing Friday, April 12, at 9/8c — introduces Morena Baccarin as Mickey.
Mickey is described as a deputy sheriff “with a surprising connection to the Leones.”
The big episode finds a fire camp inmate escaping from Three Rock, kicking off a cat-and-mouse game as everyone tries to apprehend the inmate.
As expected, Bode and those closest to him will be immersed in the mission, which will attempt to showcase Fire Country’s franchise potential.
CBS likely won’t make a pickup decision until after the episode has aired to assess whether fans warm to Mickey and the conflict she brings to this universe.

Fire Country viewers will have to wait a while to learn what happened to Bode (Max Thieriot).
It’s frustrating for Fire Country fans to have the show be Mia again after only one new episode aired in March.
Season 2 of Fire County has only had four new episodes air so far.
The reason for that, of course, was because of the Writers Strike and the SAG/AFTRA strike pushing the 2023/2024 TV season into early 2024.
While many people thought TV shows would run all-new episodes until May because of the delay that is not the case.
At least this preemption for Fire Country is for a good reason, as opposed to CBS simply airing a repeat of the show.
