Not long after Fire Country’s first season, CBS expressed enthusiasm about making a franchise out of Max Thieriot’s drama . They really wasted no time when it came to expanding the world of Edgewater, and now we know that Sheriff Country will happen during the 2025-2026 season. So, with that in mind, I asked the flagship drama’s showrunner about the upcoming spinoff and how Season 3 of Fire Country could help introduce the series that will be led by Sheriff Mickey.
While Season 3 of Fire Country will premiere in the fall on the 2024 TV schedule , we’ll have to wait another year before we see Mickey leading her own show. When I spoke with Fire Country’s showrunner Tia Napolitano about the Season 2 finale, we also talked about the upcoming spinoff and how it could be introduced in the junior season of her show. While she didn’t reveal much, she did say Sheriff Mickey and her team will be seen again before Sheriff Country starts, she said: Yeah, we want to expand Edgewater, and Mickey is part of Edgewater.
So we definitely want to have her come play on Fire Country, and get to know her more and get to know who she is to all of our people to build that world so that Sheriff Country feels like a natural expansion of the universe and it's just more Edgewater for our viewers. There you have it, we should see more of Morena Baccarin’s Sheriff Mickey in Fire Country’s third season in the lead-up to her show’s premiere. We’ve already seen it happen once before – s.
