BURNING OJAI: OUR FIRE STORY, debuting WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 28 (7:00 p.m. - 7:45 p.m. EST / PST), follows one family and the residents of Ventura County, CA through a journey of devastation, repair and survival after one of the largest wildfires in state history destroys their beloved community.

Ultimately, BURNING OJAI underscores the resilience of Ventura County's residents at a time when the threat of California fires shows no signs of slowing.
