When CBS’s Fire Country debuted in Fall 2022, it was another in a long line of shows about first responders on many networks. Shows like Chicago Fire, 9-1-1, and 9-1-1: Lone Star paved the way for CBS’s new drama, and Fire Country took that runway and leaped forward. In just one season, Fire Country averaged 8.4 million viewers, an increase in its 9 pm Friday timeslot by 14%. Based loosely on the real Cal Fire and their Conservation Camp Program, Fire Country is the story of the Leone family, who are Cal Fire royalty. Division Chief Sharon Leone (Diane Farr, who also spent two seasons on Rescue Me, Denis Leary’s firefighter-focused drama that ran for 7 Seasons on FX) and Battalion Chief Vince Leone (Billy Burke) run things in the small town of Edgewater, which is home to Three Rock Fire Camp, a branch of California’s Conservation Camp Program for incarcerated firefighters hoping to reduce their sentence — one of whom is the Leone’s son, Bode (Max Thierot, previously of CBS’ SEAL Team).Bode, who left home after his sister died in a car accident where he was driving, hasn’t been home in 5 years, and his return isn’t exactly celebrated. His childhood friends, Jake Crawford (Jordan Calloway) and Eve Edwards (Jules Latimer) are firefighters who work for Bode’s father, Vince, and their relationships with Bode aren’t exactly positive. Bode has to figure out how to navigate old relationships and new ones while trying to stay clean and follow all the rules. While Bode navigates his new version of incarceration, he and the other characters on the show also deal with everything from family drama and new relationships to long-term health problems and mental health issues.A number of the people in the show are also in recovery, both in and out of Three Rock. Bode himself is a recovering addict, and Manny Perez (Kevin Alejandro, formerly of Lucifer), the captain at Three Rock, is a recovering alcoholic and deals with gambling addiction during the first season. Three Rock also gets a new inmate, Sleeper (Grant Harvey), in Season 1, Episode 20, “At the End of My Rope,” who brings drugs to camp, putting several of the other inmate firefighters in danger when one of their youngest members is on heroin during a fire. Bode encourages Manny to do a random drug test, knowing certain people will be caught, but somehow, Bode also fails, leading to drugs playing an unfortunate role in the finale.
