Heating things up! Max Thieriot is no stranger to the limelight — but his latest role as Bode Donovan on CBS’ Fire Country has made him an even bigger star.
The California native, 34, is not only the lead character on the show, which premiered in October 2022, but he is the creator as well as a writer and producer on the project.
The drama follows a group of convicts, including Bode, who are part of a firefighting program in Northern California that assists in lessening the risk of wildfires. Bode, however, is unlike his fellow inmates as he is the son of the local Cal Fire Battalion Chief Vince Leone (Billy Burke) and Cal Fire Division Chief Sharon Leone (Diane Farr) — who haven’t seen their son the death of his sister years prior.
Thieriot’s firsthand experience seeing firefighters protect his hometown of Occidental, California, in 2017 during the local Tubbs and Nuns fires inspired him to tell the story of the first responders with the masses.
The Tubbs fire claimed at least 40 lives and affected more than 6,000 homes in the Sonoma County area, according to The Los Angeles Times. The Nuns fire took nearly a month for firefighters to get it contained.
“It was chaos. It was so surreal and unbelievable that this fire was spreading where it was. People just couldn’t imagine this ever happening,” the actor recalled during an interview with the Petaluma Argus Courier in October 2022. “And after it was all over, I was driving around, and it was just hard to digest [seeing local landmarks get demolished]. My gosh, the devastation.”
While filming the Fire Country pilot in summer 2022, he simultaneously began shooting season 6 of SEAL Team — a hectic schedule that only got busier as the firefighter drama picked up with episode 2’s

In a nutshell the brilliantly hilarious, pertinent, and wickedly smart new movie, You People is in some ways a new age Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner, that landmark 1967 Tracy-Hepburn-Poitier Oscar winning comedy about the effect an interracial relationship has on the parents of the young couple. Of course back then it was a major social issue and even had trouble booking some southern theatres. The idea was switched in a Bernie Mac/Ashton Kutcher 2005 remake that all those years later did not have the same impact. With anti-semitism and racism back on the rise in 2023 America however the concept of an interracial/interfaith marriage, Black and White, Jew and Muslim, could not be more timely or needed, and in co-star Jonah Hill’s and director Kenya Barris’ whipsmart screenplay is also a knock-you-out-of- your-seat laugh riot. Ironically I saw it this week at its World Premiere at the same Westwood Village theatre where I saw Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner all those years ago. With a packed house the laughter was so continuous and loud for You People it was hard to hear a lot of the lines. When was the last time that happened?
You might not think that a TV series about a therapist struggling with the death of his wife and a career listening to other people talk about their issues would be a comedy from the co-creator of “Ted Lasso.” And yet, “Shrinking” does appear to be another Bill Lawrence-produced, feel-good comedy, coming to Apple TV+ later this month. As mentioned, in the trailer for “Shrinking,” we see the series follows the story of a grieving therapist (Jason Segel), as he struggles to come to terms with his wife’s sudden passing, while also raising a young daughter and trying to balance a career.
