### Development

[edit]

In November 2021, CBS announced it was developing a series with Thieriot, Tony Phelan and Joan Rater, based on Thierot's experiences growing up in Northern California fire country. The potential series was then known as Cal Fire.[73] In February 2022, a series pilot was green-lit.[74] The pilot was written by Phelan and Rater, with Thieriot as co-writer, and directed by James Strong. In May 2022, CBS picked up the series, now titled Fire Country.[2] Tia Napolitano would serve as the series showrunner.[75] On October 19, 2022, the series received a full season order.[76] On January 6, 2023, CBS renewed the series for a second season.[3] On March 12, 2024, the series was renewed for a third season.[5]

## Reception

[edit]

### Critical response

[edit]

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 44% approval rating with an average rating of 4.3/10 for the first season, based on nine critic reviews.[93] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 56 out of 100 based on seven critic reviews, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[94]

Katie Dowd, writing for SFGate, accused Fire Country of being exploitative and "inaccurate."[95]

### Cal Fire response

[edit]

Prior to the show's release, Cal Fire Chief Joe Tyler released a statement denying any involvement in the creation of the show, saying that "this television series is a misrepresentation of the professional all-hazards fire department and resource protection agency that Cal Fire is." Particular objection was made to a scene in the series' trailer involving an inmate fighting a member of Cal Fire.[96]

Tim Edwards, the president of Cal Fire's union, Local 2881, added that "we have spoken with our legal team, and we cannot prevent the series from airing or using the Cal Fire name." An attempt was made to legally require a disclaimer before and after each episode that disavowed involvement from Cal Fire, but was unsuccessful.[96] After seeing the full pilot, Edwards continued to disapprove of the show and added criticism over inmates not being punished for multiple rule violations that would normally result in an immediate return to prison.[97]

Showrunner Tia Napolitano replied to the criticisms saying "I had almost no response. I know we are making an entertainment show. It's not a documentary. We do our absolute best." Jeff Snider, a retired firefighter and one of the show's consultants, noted the New York City Police Department did not comment on the realism of Law & Order and said Cal Fire's unusual response was because "just in general with firefighters, we are very good at finding the flaw with each other."[97]
