The Code Red TV show's setting was in Los Angeles, California. Chief Rorchek was a 30-year veteran of the fire department! Fire Chief Rorchek's son Ted worked as a "traditional" fireman while his son Chris was the department's helicopter pilot. Most of the Code Red TV show's episodes had a "message" for the audience about fire safety like knowing the escape route in your home, proper handling of camp fires, etc. Code Red was on pretty early in the evening for a drama series. It aired at 7:00PM eastern time on Sunday nights. Its competition on CBS was "60 Minutes" and NBC ran local programming which typically included the news. If you look at the episode air dates below, you'll notice that Code Red didn't premiere until November of 1981. That was because there was a writer's strike that year that delayed most premieres anywhere from one to three months!
