‘Line of Fire’ Episode 6 Release Date, Time, Where to Watch and Preview

Viewers tracking the ‘Line of Fire’ episode release date can mark Monday, October 26 on the calendar. The installment is listed under the title ‘Cabin Pressure’, and it follows this week’s chapter in the weekly rollout. The family crime drama airs on Mondays, which keeps the schedule easy to follow.

This guide covers the air time, streaming options and story setup for the next hour, along with some context from the season so far. The series follows a family of law enforcement agents working across the FBI, US Marshals, Secret Service and Department of Justice. A seemingly simple case has turned into a deadly conspiracy, and that premise frames what viewers can expect next.

Release Date for the Next ‘Line of Fire’ Episode

‘Cabin Pressure’ is scheduled for October 26 and is credited to writer Logan Slakter. The director has not yet been announced. Details like that tend to arrive closer to broadcast.

The season follows a weekly release format, and the episodes after this one are currently expected on November 2, November 9, November 16 and November 23. Titles for those later installments have not been confirmed. The dates should be treated as expected rather than final.

The total episode count is still a moving target. One fan wiki reports that the show picked up a full first season of 18 episodes on October 12, while Wikipedia describes a back order of five additional scripts that are intended to become episodes if ratings success continues. NBC has not yet announced a finale date, and the show has not been renewed for a second season.

Air Time and Run Length on NBC

‘Line of Fire’ airs at 10 p.m. Eastern and 9 p.m. Central on NBC. Peacock’s own listing describes the slot as 10/9c. That makes it a standard late primetime placement.

The series takes over the time slot associated with ‘Brilliant Minds’. The listed run time is 60 minutes. Viewers should plan for a full hour with commercial breaks included.

Viewers outside the Eastern time zone should check local listings for the exact start time in their area. Local listings have also shown a repeat of a prior episode on the Friday after its Monday broadcast. That gives anyone who misses the Monday airing a second chance on linear television.

Where to Watch Live and on Peacock

‘Line of Fire’ airs live on NBC and becomes available to stream the next day on Peacock. Cable and satellite subscribers can watch live through their local NBC station. For most viewers in the United States, those are the two main routes.

Peacock offers a plan with ads that includes TV favorites from NBC. Listings also confirm that the first season is available on Peacock Premium. Anyone catching up on earlier chapters can use the same service before the new episode arrives.

Fubo also lists ‘Cabin Pressure’ on its platform. Canadian viewers can watch the series on Citytv. Availability outside those regions has not been confirmed in the sources reviewed here.

Episode Preview and What to Expect From ‘Cabin Pressure’

The official synopsis says Mike hatches a plan to smoke out an assassination suspect while Jane races against the clock to save a hijacked plane. That puts two members of the family on separate tracks at the same time. It also sets up a test of how well the Hollingsworths can operate when they are not working side by side.

The setup builds on this week’s installment. In that chapter, Clare goes undercover with a new partner, Jane and Nia search for a mole in the Task Force, and Russ and Micah unearth new evidence in the Barnes assassination attempt. Sam Waterston guest stars as former President Thomas Barnes, which keeps that storyline in focus.

Peter Krause stars as Mike Hollingsworth, Hope Davis plays Jane, and Kat Cunning plays Clare, with Tommy O’Brien, Taylor Bloom and Charlie Barnett also in the cast. Joshua Safran created the series and serves as showrunner. The third episode drew 2.76 million U.S. viewers, a figure that gives some measure of the audience following the story.

Readers who have followed the Barnes assassination plot may have their own view on whether Mike’s plan to smoke out a suspect can succeed while Jane is racing to save a hijacked plane, and the comments are open for those theories.
