What to Expect: Fire Country Season 4
When we last left Fire Country in December 2025, the crew was reeling from a “turf war” between Station 42 and neighboring Drake County.
-
Bode’s Journey: Expect the second half of Season 4 to dive deeper into Bode’s (Max Thieriot) quest for redemption as he continues to balance his firefighting duties with the heavy secrets he brought back to town.
-
New Conflicts: Tensions with the new battalion chief (played by Jared Padalecki’s character or the recent addition Brett Richards) are expected to reach a boiling point, testing the unity of the entire firehouse.
What to Expect: Sheriff Country Season 1
The spinoff, starring Morena Baccarin as Sheriff Mickey Fox, has been a massive hit for CBS, already earning an early renewal for Season 2.
-
Family Drama: Mickey will continue to juggle the high-stakes crimes of Edgewater with her complicated family life, specifically the legal troubles involving her daughter, Skye.
-
Crossovers: Fans should keep an eye out for more crossover moments. As Mickey is the stepsister of Sharon Leone (Diane Farr), the link between the Sheriff’s office and Cal Fire remains a core part of the show’s DNA.
