Is Fire Country new tonight on CBS? SAG Strike implications
However, it is pretty clear at the moment that we are going to need to exercise some patience for a pretty long time here. Unfortunately, the firefighter drama remains off the air, and the timetable for it coming back just continues to grow longer and longer.
Earlier this week, the news became 100% official that the actors within SAG-AFTRA were officially going on strike, meaning that both actors and writers are striking at the same time for the first time in over half a decade. This means that we are now facing an extremely long road to getting any scripted show back on the air, and the networks / studios have not helped their case at all with some of the ways that they have communicated to the press.
In the end, a season 2 will happen at some point, but just don’t expect a lot of conversation about it from the cast and crew in a while. One of the stipulations of the strike is that nobody can actively promote their work, and that means that interviews are going to dry up.
Where we stand
It is not hard for us to make that stance clear. We 100% are with all of the performers currently fighting for their future, and it would be incredibly strange to say anything otherwise at this point. These people have all worked tirelessly to ensure that we have great entertainment to enjoy, and it feels almost baffling to think that they would not be compensated in an altogether fair way.
