Here is everything you need to know about the schedule disruption of the popular drama series.
Here’s why Fire Country Season 3 Episode 16 isn’t airing this week
Fire Country Season 3 Episode 6 isn’t airing this week due to CBS’s March Madness (via Dexerto).
Fans were surprised to find out there won’t be a new episode of Fire Country this week. Many even began speculating on the conclusion or cancellation of the series. In the past, there have been many popular shows abruptly canceled by networks, leaving viewers shocked. Naturally, Fire Country fans were concerned the show would end up meeting the same fate. However, the good news is the series isn’t going anywhere at the moment.
The new episodes were put on hold due to CBS covering March Madness. Aside from Fire Country Season 3, CBS’s other shows like Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage will also be affected due to the schedule change.
For the unversed, March Madness is an annual NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament. It is a single-elimination tournament with a total of 68 teams participating to emerge as the national champions.
When will Fire Country return on CBS?
Fire Country will return on CBS on April 4, 2025.
As mentioned above, Fire Country Season 3’s schedule has been changed due to CBS’s coverage of March Madness. As a result, the show’s episodes have been held for three weeks. Thus, Fire Country will return from its break on Friday, April 4, 2025. Episode 16 will air on its scheduled time: 9 pm Eastern Time.
Additionally, the show will have a special crossover episode with the upcoming series, Sheriff Country. The upcoming episode, titled “Dirty Money,” is expected to focus on Bode and his aunt, Sheriff Mickey Fox, delving deep into the attempted murder of Wes Fox, her estranged father.
