Fire Country Season 3 Preview: "Sheriff Country," Jelly Roll & More

With CBS's Fire Country returning on April 4th, here is what's ahead with Season 3: a "Sheriff Country" crossover, Jelly Roll, and much more!

Okay, let's get the bad news out of the way because it's pretty obvious by now. No, we're not getting a new episode of series creators and executive producers Tony Phelan, Joan Rater, and Max Thieriot's Fire Country Season 3 tonight. That won't be happening until next week – Friday, April 4th, to be precise. The good news? The series will be hitting viewers with two special episodes when it does return. S03E16: "Dirty Money" brings a crossover with the spinoff series Sheriff Country – meaning an appearance from Morena Baccarin's straight-shooting sheriff Mickey Fox and her ex-con father (W. Earl Brown). A week later – on April 11th – S03E17: "Fire and Ice" sees mega music star Jelly Roll guest-starring. Along with official overviews and image galleries for both episodes, we also have official overviews for the two-episode, two-hour Season 3 finale that's set for Friday, April 25th: S03E19: "A Change in the Wind" and S03E20: "I'd Do It Again."

CBS's Fire Country stars Max Thieriot (SEAL Team) as Bode Leone, 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. 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.

Inspired by Thieriot's experiences growing up in Northern California fire country and produced by CBS Studios, CBS's Fire Country also stars Billy Burke (Vince), Kevin Alejandro (Manny), Diane Farr (Sharon), Stephanie Arcila (Gabriela), Jordan Calloway (Jake), and Jules Latimer (Eve). Tony Phelan, Joan Rater, Tia Napolitano, Bill Harper, Max Thieriot, Jerry Bruckheimer, and Kristie Anne Reed serve as executive producers.
