CBS has renewed 'Fire Country' for Season 2.
Things are going well in Fire Country. CBS announced that the firefighter drama will return for a second season after becoming broadcast television's most-viewed new series. Executive produced by ten-time Emmy-winning television giant Jerry Bruckheimer, the series centers on Seal Team's Max Thieriot who plays a young convict named Bode Donovan seeking redemption, and a shorter sentence, by joining the prison release firefighting program.
Since its first season debuted on October 7, the series has quickly risen to the top of the fall slate and has become the face of CBS's success during the season. The network reports that episodes drew an average of 8 million viewers per episode, a number that reportedly grew to 10 million when factoring in streaming viewers.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Billy Burke, Kevin Alejandro, Diane Farr, Stephanie Arcila, Jordan Calloway, and Jules Latimer star in the series opposite Thieriot. Bruckheimer's production team also features Thieriot who not only executive produced, but helped write and create the series in a first for his career. The other creators, Tony Phelan and Joan Rater, executive produced as well alongside Tia Napolitano and KristieAnne Reed.
It’s pretty remarkable to see a new series resonate like this with both broadcast and streaming audiences right out of the gate. Fire Country has so many appealing entry points for the audience. It combines high-stakes action with small-town charm, mystery and romance, and a family franchise at its core. We’re blessed to have an incredible team in front of and behind the camera, led by amazing producers and writers and an exceptionally talented cast.
Fire Country returns from its winter hiatus on Friday night, airing at 9 p.m. ET. Check out a sneak peek from the latest episode "No Good Deed" below.
