Camden, played by Jared Padalecki, will be the fuel to Bode’s inferno on Fire Country Season 3
We’re inching closer to the highly anticipated return of one of CBS’s top shows, and things are getting hotter than ever.
Jared Padalecki joining Fire Country has us geeking out because why wouldn’t we love a Thieriot-Padalecki bromance on our favorite surviving firefighter series? His character, Camden, will appear in three episodes of the third season with a significant purpose.
Many fans are wary of the staff addition, given that it’s a set-up for a third “Country” series, which is currently in the planning stage.
Fire Country struggled through its second season, so news of slate of spinoffs isn’t as exciting as it should be.
What’s going to happen when that universe divides into new entities?
Despite our reservations about the spinoff news, most of us are loving the dreamy possibilities of Padalecki and Thieriot as sweaty, filthy firefighter buddies. *drools*
But if we put aside the appeal of all those luscious locks, beautiful bodies, and pouty lips, we have a character development that could significantly change the Fire Country landscape.
Who Will Jared Padalecki Play in Fire Country?
Most people remember Jared Padalecki as Sam Winchester from Supernatural or as cowboy Texas Ranger Cordell Walker in the short-lived reboot of the wildly successful ’90s series Walker, Texas Ranger.
While Jared is no Chuck Norris, his upcoming role as a Cali firefighter intrigues us. Camden will be an overly confident surfer boy adrenaline junkie with a rebel streak to match the reckless ballsy behaviors of Bode.
His maverick tendencies will spot the raw potential of his fellow firefighting fanatic. Two alphas chasing the high of heroism, potentially without the restraints of an official association with a fire department to keep them in check.
What could go wrong?
Rumor has it that Camden will be the fuel to Bode’s inferno. When the second season of Fire Country ended, Bode had just gotten out of prison.
Now he’s working construction and still playing hero as he finds himself in intense situations. He’s not scared to act as a one-man rescue crew, which could become dangerous without the restraints of North Cal FD to remind him of his mortality.
Camden recognizes Bode’s raw talent for heroism and reckless abandon for his own safety. If Camden shares the same narcissistic, adrenaline-fueled need to play hero, things could heat up fast.
How Jared Padalecki’s Character Can Change Fire Country
After the disaster of its second season, Fire Country needs a strong third season if it hopes to reclaim the success of its freshman launch. Otherwise, like many other shows, it could fall victim to a short run.
Unlike the shortened ten-episode sophomore season, FC’s third season will have a full run to tell its story. With over twenty episodes, the stories can unfold at a slower, more satisfactory pace.
Along with new faces, fans also hope to see new locales and firefighting scenarios for the show’s upcoming season.
It’s possible Padaecki’s role could help with our wish. He is a SoCal boy. While FC has focused so far on North California, we saw them traveling for a campaign fire in the second season.
So is SoCal coming to NorCal, or is NorCal headed South?
Given that the working spinoff title of Jared’s potential series is Fire Country: Surfside, we must assume the show will take us to sunny Southern California if it gets an official greenlight.
And from the recent news of a few other series, it’s starting to look like fans will spend a lot of time in the sand and surf.
