What Is ‘Fire Country’ About?
Created by Max Thieriot, Tony Phelan and Joan Rater, Fire Country stars Thieriot as Bode Donovan, a young man whose troubled past led to a prison sentence. Seeking redemption and a reduced sentence, Bode joins the California Conservation Camp Program, where he and other incarcerated individuals assist Cal Fire as part of a unique prison firefighting initiative.
What sounds like a fresh start quickly becomes more complicated when Bode is assigned to his hometown in Northern California, the fictional town of Edgewater. Here, Bode not only battles blazes but also confronts lingering tensions from his past, working under the same roof as his parents and encountering familiar faces from his earlier life.

What to Expect of ‘Fire Country’ Season 4?
Spoiler Alert: Season three spoilers & season four details below!
Season 3 of Fire Country ended with Station 42 facing the catastrophic Zebel Ridge fire threatening Edgewater. The blaze reached a care facility where Bode’s parents and grandfather were, leaving them trapped inside and an injured Bode powerless to save his family.
The tragedy set up one of the show’s most emotional moments yet: the death of Vince Leone, Bode’s father and Edgewater’s fire chief, confirmed in the Season 4 trailer. His loss leaves Bode, Sharon and the entire town heartbroken and struggling to pick up the pieces.
Season 4 begins eight weeks post-disaster, with Station 42, Bode and Sharon still mourning Vince’s loss. The premiere showcases another gripping rescue mission, challenging the team to unite and reclaim their strength as a family. Executive producer Tia Napolitano describes the episode as “classic Fire Country,” packed with intense action, raw emotion and a glimmer of hope that is desperately needed.
