Fire Country Season 3 adds Supernatural and Walker alum Jared Padalecki to its star-studded ensemble.
The hype surrounding Fire Country Season 3 reached new heights following the show's Netflix debut.
The new season continues Bode's journey of self-discovery after he embraces his responsibilities as a firefighter at the end of Season 2. However, his status as an ex-convict makes it difficult for him to have a fresh start.
Fire Country Season 3 premiered on CBS on October 18.

Max Thieriot - Bode Leone
Max Thieriot is back as Bode Donovan in Fire Country Season 3.
Bode is a convict-turned-firefighter who returned home to Edgewater to become a firefighter as part of the Cal Fire firefighting program.
While he ended up in a cell again at the end of Season 1, Bode received an Extraordinary Conduct Credit in Season 2, Episode 9, meaning that Bode is out of prison when Fire Country Season 3 starts.
Fire Country's Season 2 finale saw Bode look helplessly as the love of his life, Gabriela, married to another man.
However, the Season 3 premiere shows Gabriela's wedding interrupted by a helicopter crash, prompting Bode to return to action to save everyone. The trailer also teased that things will get steamy between Bode and Gabriela at some point in Season 3.
Thieriot is known for his roles in The Pacifier, Disconnect, and Point Break. Max Thieriot also starred as Clay Spenser in SEAL Team, who died in the show's Season 5 finale.

"Gabriela and Diego's relationship is a smart match. He is the logical choice. He'll give her a great life. He's a sweet guy. He has a wonderful family. He's a talented guy. He's gorgeous. They obviously have chemistry. They go dancing together. Their marriage would be a strong one and a long one."
Napolitano, though, is unsure if Diego is Gabriela's "ultimate true love," teasing that it's for her to decide in Season 3:
"Is it her ultimate true love? I think that's for her to tell us and for us to explore. She's obviously conflicted, but she does truly care for and love Diego."
