So, she’s really meant to populate that area of Bode’s life.” We first meet Audrey in the exclusive sneak peek above, where she doesn’t give Jake quite the answers he is looking for during blackout training.

Like, let him out!’ He leans into Bode’s dangerous side, his raw talent, his instincts, all of these things that we’ve sort of tried to keep in check for his own success. He kind of fans the flames of Bode’s instincts in a really fun way.” * * * Padalecki is set for a three-episode Fire Country arc that just might lead to a spinoff centered around Camden — akin to how Morena Baccarin’s Season 2 visit as Sharon’s sister Mickey paved the way for a Sheriff Country offshoot premiering during the 2025-26 TV season.

NJRadioGuy January 10 Share January 10 Putting this here because I don't think there's a thread for related or tangential news items, but the British paper, The Guardian, has an article on inmate firefighters being deployed to the fires in L.A. Link here. Not to make light of the unmitigated horror unfolding there, but knowing this dumb show, Bode could single-handedly extinguish the entire conflagration and walk out unscathed if (when?) they decide to rip this from the headlines for next year's season premiere. Personally, I'm not sure that CBS should even schedule this show for the rest of the season just out of respect for what's going on there, or at least until later this year. I'm pretty sure that at the moment TV viewers don't want a silly fictionalized story about wildfires when the real world's burning around them, with undoubtedly many having family members who've lost everything. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/132036-a-claim-to-flame-fire-country-in-the-media/page/3/#findComment-8551161
buckboard January 13 Share January 13 CNN also ran a story about the prisoner firefighters. They pointed out that these men and women work cutting fire lines and removing fuel; others work as support staff. Apparently, it isn't in their job descriptions to jump on top of a downed airplane to douse the flames or to run into houses on fire -- all alone -- to save, I don't know, maybe 20 or 50 children.

I don't know if real to life or just bringing memories of recent events would be the objection. 9-1-1 on their massive incidents go so past real life with few onscreen victims goes more towards a pull for months possibility. And with Country spinoff possibilities I don't think CBS can let the show slide for an extended period because it might upset Angelenos Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/132036-a-claim-to-flame-fire-country-in-the-media/page/3/#findComment-8553486

Thing with Chicago Fire is that while the show focuses on firefighters, their action scenes also include water rescues, MVAs, Hazmat incidents, and smaller house/business fires. FC couldn't exist without the backdrop of California wildfires. The trainwreck of this show's writing notwithstanding, to my eyes it's just bad juju to air this show for the next few months. And there sure as hell better be a respectful title card acknowledging the pain and devastation of these fires in the next airing. 2 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/132036-a-claim-to-flame-fire-country-in-the-media/page/3/#findComment-8553621
Dowel Jones January 13 Share January 13 At the very least it should put paid to the idea that CalFire, and any other professional fire department, acts like these idiots.

tv echo January 16 Share January 16 (edited) CBS Cheat Sheet: NCIS: Origins and FBI: Most Wanted Are in Danger Paul Dailly January 15, 2025 https://www.tvfanatic.com/cbs-cheat-sheet-ncis-origins-and-fbi-most-wanted-are-in-danger/ Quote Fire Country – Certain Renewal ... Fire Country has lost a lot of ground in the ratings this season, with an average of 4.5 million viewers and a 0.33 rating on Fridays. However, within a week, the show’s numbers rose to 6.4 million viewers and a 0.55 rating, so there’s still an appetite for this show, but much of the audience doesn’t watch live. At these levels, at the very least, it’s safe for another few years.

tv echo January 17 Share January 17 (edited) Fire Country Cast Expresses ‘Deepest Gratitude’ to Those Fighting L.A. Wildfires; Other CBS Stars Rally for Red Cross Donations — Watch By Matt Webb Mitovich January 16, 2025 https://tvline.com/news/fire-country-psa-response-los-angeles-wildfires-1235399578/ Quote Cast members from Fire Country and other CBS programs have gathered for a series of PSAs that thank the firefighters and first responders dealing with the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires, and rally for donations to support the residents affected by the tragedy. In the PSA above, Fire Country‘s Max Thieriot, Stephanie Arcila and Jules Latimer thank first responders and invite donations to the Red Cross, while in the PSA below, Thieriot is joined by Kevin Alejandro, Billy Burke and Diane Farr to encourage Red Cross donations. * * * Of TV’s multiple first responder series, Fire Country‘s response to the Los Angeles wildfires has arguably been the most awaited, seeing as the CBS drama’s fall finale (airing Dec. 14) featured a series of “zombie fires” that fueled a massive, aggressive Northern California wildfire that began consuming homes — including the ranch property owned by Eve’s estranged father Elroy. The two-parter is scheduled to resume Friday, Jan. 31 at 9/8c, when Fire Country airs its winter premiere. 'Fire Country' Thanks L.A.
