URGENT UPDATE: Fans of Fire Country and Sheriff Country will have to wait a bit longer for new episodes, as both shows are officially off the air until February 27, 2026. This announcement comes as many viewers anticipated fresh content on CBS tonight, January 2, 2026, but the network is airing reruns instead.
Tonight, CBS will feature episodes from its lineup starting with Sheriff Country at 8:00 p.m. ET, showcasing Season 1, Episode 4 titled “Out of Office.” Following this, viewers can catch Fire Country with its Season 4, Episode 1 episode “Goodbye For Now,” before concluding the evening with a rerun of Boston Blue.
This hiatus means fans will need to mark their calendars for the return of both shows, which are set to resume with new episodes on February 27, 2026. The delay raises questions about the future storylines and character developments that viewers are eager to see.
For those yearning to watch episodes live, both Fire Country and Sheriff Country are available to stream on CBS or through the CBS website with a valid cable login. Alternatively, fans without cable can opt for live TV streaming services such as DIRECTV, which offers a five-day free trial. Subscription plans start at $49.99/month.
Additionally, platforms like Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, fuboTV, Paramount+ Premium, and Sling TV provide options to watch CBS live, many with free trials for new subscribers.
Streaming enthusiasts can also catch up on previous episodes of both shows on Paramount+, available for $7.99/month or $12.99/month for the premium version. New users can take advantage of a free trial.
While the absence of new episodes tonight is disappointing for fans, the anticipation builds for their return in February. Keep an eye on CBS for updates and future announcements regarding your favorite shows.
