Plot Synopsis

Inspired by the experiences of series star Max Thieriot's time growing up in Northern California fire country, FIRE COUNTRY is a one-hour drama series that centers on Bode Donovan, a young convict seeking redemption and a shortened prison sentence by joining a prison release firefighting program in Northern California where he and other inmates are partnered with elite firefighters to extinguish massive, unpredictable wildfires across the region. It's a high-risk, high-reward assignment, and the heat is turned up when Bode is assigned to the program in his rural hometown, where he was once a golden all-American son until his troubles began. Five years ago, Bode burned down everything in his life, leaving town with a big secret. Now he's back, with the rap sheet of a criminal and the audacity to believe in a chance for redemption with Cal Fire. After a four-week break, FIRE COUNTRY returned with new episodes on Friday, January 6, 2023. In the winter premiere, "No Good Deed," an internal investigation is launched after a difficult rescue went awry and a life was lost.
