Damon Wayans Jr.’s Two Shakes Entertainment, the actor’s production company with Kameron Tarlow, is developing with CBS Studios a New York-set firefighter drama titled Ten House , Deadline reports.

Written by Pilar Golden ( God Friended Me , Beyond Black Beauty ), the series is set at the titular FDNY engine and ladder company, which was established in 1865 and is now located across from the 9/11 Memorial and World Trade Center site.

Per the official synopsis, “At the iconic FDNY Ten House, two rookies grapple with their legacies as children of 9/11 first responders while navigating burgeoning feelings toward one another, the firehouse’s well-trained yet formidable veterans, and the demands of emergency response in the ever-changing yet always challenging city of New York.”

CBS of course already has Fire Country entering its third season this fall, with Supernatural alum Jared Padalecki set to guest-star as Camden Casey , a “maverick” SoCal firefighter who might be spun off to lead his own series. ( Sheriff Country , the Morena Baccarin-led Fire Country spinoff already ordered to series for the 2025-26 TV season, revolves around, well, sheriffs.)

CBS’ Fire Country was the No. 9 most-watched returning drama last TV season, while NBC’s Chicago Fire landed at No. 3 on the same list. ABC’s 9-1-1 first responder drama was last season’s No. 7-rated entertainment program.

Wayans Jr.’s Two Shakes Entertainment is also a producer on Poppa’s House , the new CBS sitcom on which he stars this fall with his father Damon Wayans. It premieres Monday, Oct. 21 at 8:30/7:30c, following The Neighborhood Season 7 and leading into NCIS Season 22.
