‘Sheriff Country’ Season 2 Episode 6 Release Date, Time, Where to Watch and Preview

The sixth episode of the second season of ‘Sheriff Country’ arrives on CBS on Friday, November 13, and it puts one of the show’s newest series regulars at the center of the story. The episode is titled “Close to the Chest” and carries a listed airdate of November 13. For viewers planning their weekend, here is what the available listings confirm.

This guide covers the ‘Sheriff Country’ sixth episode release date, the air time, the streaming options and what the official preview reveals. The next episode on the schedule is dated December 4, which suggests a short gap after this installment. That makes the November 13 broadcast worth catching live or soon after.

‘Sheriff Country’ Release Date for the Sixth Episode

Episode guides list “Close to the Chest” for Friday, November 13, with Laura Donney credited as writer and Tara Miele as director. Other listings agree on that date, so viewers should not expect a delay. Miele is also credited as director on the fourth episode, “Maria,” which suggests she has been a steady presence this season.

The previous episode, “No Way In,” was scheduled for November 6. That places the new episode on a regular weekly cadence. The season premiered on October 9 on CBS and became available on Paramount+ the following day.

CBS renewed the series on December 3, 2025, alongside ‘Boston Blue.’ Max Thieriot, Joan Rater and Tony Phelan created ‘Sheriff Country’ and its parent series, and they executive produce with Jerry Bruckheimer and KristieAnne Reed.

What Time ‘Sheriff Country’ Airs on CBS

The second season airs at 8 PM ET/PT on Fridays on CBS, with new episodes arriving weekly. The sixth episode follows that same slot. TVmaze lists the episode at 20:00 on its November 13 airdate.

Because the network lists the same hour for both coasts, viewers in the Pacific time zone tune in at 8 PM local time. Viewers in the Eastern time zone also get the episode at 8 PM. Central and Mountain viewers should check their local CBS listings for the exact hour.

After November 13, the listings show the next episodes dated December 4, December 11 and December 18, though their titles are still to be announced. Viewers who want to follow the story without interruption may want to catch this one close to its broadcast.

Where to Watch ‘Sheriff Country’ on Paramount+

The series airs on CBS and streams on Paramount+. Viewers without a cable subscription can still follow along through the streaming service. New episodes have arrived on Paramount+ the day after their CBS broadcast this season.

Live streaming is tied to the Paramount+ Premium plan, while on demand viewing is available on both the Premium and Essential plans. Anyone choosing between tiers should check the Paramount+ Help Center for current plans and pricing. Costs can change, so the service’s own page is the safest reference.

The first season is also on Paramount+ for anyone who wants to catch up before the new episode. Fire Country and ‘Sheriff Country’ are closely related, with characters appearing on both shows and a crossover during the first season. Viewers who follow both series will recognize the shared Edgewater setting.

Preview of ‘Close to the Chest’ and What Comes Next

The official synopsis says a dangerous case hits close to home for Hank, and Mickey and the team race to protect someone he loves while uncovering secrets that may have put him in danger. That framing points to a personal story for the deputy. It also gives the supporting cast a larger role than usual.

Ian Quinlan plays Hank Iglesias, and he and Amanda Arcuri were promoted to series regulars on April 9. The main cast also includes Morena Baccarin as Sheriff Mickey Fox, W. Earl Brown as Wes Fox, Matt Lauria as Nathan Boone and Michele Weaver as Cassidy Campbell.

The season has leaned on family tension from the start. The premiere, “Cyclone,” followed Mickey as she processed a shocking family revelation while trying to save a young woman caught up in a dangerous criminal operation. Showrunner Matt Lopez said the season would include a time jump and a lot of unpacking around Eva Santos and her presumed death. The fourth episode centered on a manhunt and long buried family wounds, while the fifth followed a prison break that became a hostage crisis with personal consequences for Mickey.

After a run of stories built around Mickey and her family, the shift toward Hank gives the season a different emotional register, so who do you think Hank is trying to protect in ‘Close to the Chest,’ and do the secrets that put him in danger point back to the family revelations already shaking Edgewater?
