The Fire Country series has been a successful show for CBS on Friday nights. Now, to little surprise, the network has introduced a spin-off, Sheriff Country. Will this new series also perform well in the ratings and have a successful run? Will Sheriff Country be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
A police procedural series, the Sheriff Country TV show was created by Matt Lopez and is a spin-off of Fire Country.
It stars Morena Baccarin, Christopher Gorham, Michele Weaver, Matt Lauria, and W. Earl Brown. The story revolves around straight-shooting sheriff Mickey Fox (Baccarin), the stepsister of Cal Fire’s division chief Sharon Leone (Farr). She investigates criminal activity while she patrols the streets of small-town Edgewater, contending with her ex-con father, Wes (Brown), who is an off-the-grid marijuana grower, and a mysterious incident involving her wayward daughter.
Nielsen Ratings
The Nielsen ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances of survival. This chart is updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like the Sheriff Country TV series on CBS? Are you glad it has been renewed for a second season?
another good show last night. Is good drama and nice to have a good clean show on. I love the dad he is an excellent choice for playing his part. I get a kick out of him. Sure hope that they keep this on because it’s a keeper.
It was good enough, but in the final episode to this particular story it just kinda fizzled out.
I thought the show was getting stronger with each episode until the character of the District Attorney was introduced. My pattern of following programs is to stay and enjoy until a character is introduced that, IMHO, doesn’t add anything to the scripts and in fact, IMO, creates anxiety thus I quit watching. Just my method of of trying to enjoy w/o the frustrations of real life
Is getting better with each episode. Last night was very good and glad that they found person who killed the boy. A very good clean family show that we need more of.
We thought this was a pretty good show, especially for Friday nights. It gets better with each episode.
I could barely get through the pilot episode. In my opinion the acting was terrible and she no more acts like an law enforcement person that an ant. I don’t think the show will be renewed.
This show has potential and I am watching to see how it goes. I think that the cast is fitting well together and make it interesting. Seems like they are picking on the sheriff like they do with Body in fire country. I think this show can make it.
The pilot was very disappointing. The story was disjointed. During the rescue from the car on the cliff I had no idea that the parents and infant weren’t at the bottom of the cliff! It did not show anything about their rescue! They just magically appeared after the commercial! And I must say the ex-con father of the sheriff is not a sympathetic character at all.
I like it a lot. Keep it going. Very good.
I like it a lot.
The new SHERIFF COUNTRY was just so-so. No, I doubt I’ll be tuning in again. Even the Donnie Walberg show was just ok. I’ll be skipping this one, too. I know he can do better!
I cannot stand Fire Country so I won’t be watching this because it is bound to have niggling crossovers.
Many good shows got cancelled because of Fire Country.
You watch what watch and I will do similar.
I thought Sheriff’s Country got off to a good start. The show has a talented cast and wish the show the best.
Fire Country was good at some point but no longer so I won’t be watching this .
