Fire Country is coming back soon. Season 3 of the hit CBS TV show just went on holiday hiatus earlier in December, but it’s locked in for a midseason premiere next month! The showrunner Tia Napolitano has also spoken out about what to expect in the return episode, and it sounds intense. Click through to find out what’s coming…
In an interview with TV Insider, the showrunner teased the premiere as an episode that has her “so excited.” “Oh, I’m so excited. I’m really excited about the premiere,” she began. “It’s a shame everyone has to wait all winter break for it. It’s mostly a direct pickup. I mean, it isn’t an episode where you can really skip time. You want to be in that pool, you want to be in that fire, you want to be with Manny. We have a lot of questions of how we will ever pull everyone out of this situation. And it’s a freight train, man. The premiere is just a freight train.” She also confirmed there will be no time jump. “No, it’s pretty straightforward,” she said. The showrunner also said that Gabriela is in the most danger. “She’s just out there where people should not be and she has no equipment and they have no eyes on her and she’s alone. If there’s two people together, they can work together. And I think she’s not sure if anyone even realizes the dangers she’s in. So she’s in a really scary situation.” She also addressed Eve’s ranch, which is her family home. “Yes, that’s still her family home. I don’t think we will ever see Eve more determined to win against fire as we’re about to see in the premiere episode, which is great. It’s just like a great color on her. She’s so often there for our people. We get to see our people be there for her and have her family be at the center of everything and the focus as opposed to the Leone family in that episode. And it’s just a nice expansion of the world.”
