Fire Country: Netflix and other streaming options
Deadline reported on July 16, 2024, that season 1 of the popular CBS series would be available on Netflix only in the US starting from August 1, 2024. Both seasons 1 and 2 of Fire Country are also available for streaming on Paramount+.
Fire Country is not the only CBS series to land on Netflix. Shows like S.W.A.T., and Evil have also been added to Netflix as part of a growing partnership between CBS Studios and Netflix.
According to a report by Deadline published on July 11, 2024, CBS' parent company, Paramount Global, is open to selling streaming rights to platforms other than Paramount+ in a bid to introduce its content to newer and newer audiences.
CBS President David Stapf commented on this strategy:
"You're exposing the show to that many more people, so potentially some of those people are new viewers. Then they, in turn, go back to watch previous seasons or future seasons."
