What to expect from Fire Country season 3
The season will continue to focus heavily on Bode Donovan, as he adjusts to life outside of prison. Now a free man, Bode will face the challenges of reintegrating into society as a civilian while still pursuing his passion for firefighting. Maybe he’ll pursue a legitimate career with the Edgewater Fire Department.
Now, the question arises, what happens to the redemption theme if Bode is not part of the inmate program anymore?
Max Thieriot addresses this in a conversation with Collider. He says:
“The inmate fire camp is a huge piece of the show and something that we won’t just walk away from telling. It obviously makes a big difference and is something that really makes it feel like its own unique story, so that story of redemption will always be ongoing.
But now, it’s just about different ways to creatively tell those stories without Bode being in fire camp. I think it’ll be fun because we’ll be able to tell those stories in ways that the audience doesn’t expect.”

There’s also talk of crossovers with the new spinoff that’s upcoming — Sheriff Country. But we’ll know more for sure later.
Gabriela Perez’s storyline will pick up from the dramatic cliffhanger of the season 2 finale, where she was left at the altar about to marry Diego. The new season will reveal her decision and explore the consequences of her choice, particularly regarding her complicated feelings for Bode. This love triangle is likely to continue. Bode has his work cut out for him, that is if he wants a relationship with Gabriela in the future.
Manny Perez’s legal troubles will form another major arc for the season. Facing charges of reckless endangerment and aggravated assault, there’s likely a lengthy legal process ahead for Manny.
Other recurring characters like Jake Crawford, Eve Edwards, and Bode’s parents will likely continue to develop, with their storylines intertwining with the main plot in new and interesting ways.
