Many TV shows and live-action movies feature, at some point, a plot involving the main setting (or other major location) being heavily damaged or destroyed in a fire. After the main situation leading to the fire is played out, the rest of the episode will be dedicated to the major characters dealing with the aftermath. Either a new setting will be introduced, characters will deal with someone's death (as a result of the fire) or some other Aesop relating to fire safety will be explored. May be related to Let the Past Burn: when a house is destroyed in a fire with an emphasis on the memories the house represents. Examples |

Happy Days: The episode "Hot Stuff" revolved around a fire that destroys Arnold's, and three of the main characters being trapped (Fonzie, Potsie and Ralph) and having to be rescued. The main storyline was driven by a decision to update the old '50s-style Arnold's set with a modern setting. | |

The Smurfs: A couple of examples: "The Smurfs Christmas Special," where Gargamel uses a spell to destroy the Smurf Village in a way that is similar to fire. This part of the storyline — and later, when the Smurfs return note from rescuing two children from the clutches of an evil lord to find their village in ruins — was written keeping in mind something many people can identify with: Losing their homes on Christmas or mid-to-late December due to fire or other disaster, but are in the meantime able to escape unharmed. The Season 7 episode "Skyscraper Smurfs," where a newly-built "Smurfaminium" erupts in flames, rendering the Smurfs homeless. (But not for long, as they move back to their original Smurf Village homes.) |

Bonanza: The season 12 opener "The Night Virginia City Died" was really the night Virginia City died ... the original set of the main Bonanza town, that is. In the summer of 1970, the series moved production from the Paramount lot to Warner Bros. studios, and in order to take apart some of the buildings used on the old set, a script was devised to destroy the "old" Virginia City. That script centered on an unidentified arsonist setting fires to various buildings around town; various people are suspected, but it isn't until episode's end that the real culprit — the fiancé of Clem, the town's deputy — is identified, and it happens only after she dies in the last fire she set (she had been sexually abused as a child by her stepfather, who died in a fire she set years earlier). By the episode's end, when the townspeople are rebuilding, it is clear that the town has a different look, and it is because filming is now taking place in a different studio. | |

One features prominently in Felicia Mitsuki’s backstory in Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story, as her parents died in an apartment fire. While she believes a Witch was responsible and zealously hunts down Witches as a result, the truth is that she herself accidentally caused the fire by kicking her mother while she was frying chicken. | |

In the backstory of November 9, Fallon was seriously injured and almost died in a house fire, which started when her father's classic car caught fire in the driveway, with the flames spreading to the house. Fallon has been left with permanent scarring and a lot of psychological baggage. It's later revealed the fire wasn't an accident, or at least the arsonist deliberately set the car alight, though he didn't intend for it to spread to the house. | |

Cheers: Season 11's "The Little Match Girl" has Rebecca accidentally setting the bar on fire after vowing to quit smoking and tossing her (apparently not-completely-extinguished) last cigarette into a wastebasket in Sam's office. (While half the bar's interior was gutted, Sam must have been able to find exact replicas for everything, because by the next episode the place looks pretty much exactly as it had before.) | |

Dallas: The 1983 season cliffhanger, "Ewing Inferno," sees the Southfork Ranch mansion heavily damaged by flames after J.R. Ewing and Ray Krebs get into a fight. Ray confronts J.R. over a car accident that caused Sue Ellen and Mickey to be badly injured, and a wine glass thrown at him hits a lighted candle, igniting some cloths and resulting in the huge inferno that traps several people. (Everyone's OK, as it turns out.) | |

Sudden Death starts off with this, setting the general shocking tone for the movie. A house in a Pittsburgh neighborhood is on fire. Inside is the main character, firefighter Darren Mc Cord crying out for help as he holds a terrified little girl in his arms. Burning debris falls onto the two, just when other firefighters arrive to save them. Darren quickly looks back down at the girl, but she's just staring forward, motionless, not screaming like she was a minute before. It's implied that he was fired from his job because of this, and why he went on to work as a fire marshal for the Civic Arena, and potentially adding to his determination to save his own kids from the potential disaster. | |

The Simpsons: Several episodes have seen a fire damage (to varying degrees) the Simpsons' house, including: "Homer the Heteric": Caused by Homer falling asleep while smoking a cigar, and the lighted tip igniting his pornographic magazines. "Miracle on Evergreen Terrace": Bart causes the family's Christmas tree and presents to burn to a crisp after his prized fire truck shoots water at an electrical outlet. (He claims that he had thwarted a burglary, but before the family can explain Bart's ruse, Kent Brockmann uncovers the truth.) |

Hooper's Store has caught fire twice on Sesame Street. The first happened in episode 0540 and then the second happened during a Very Special Episode for the season premiere of Season 33 (episode 3981). The Season 33 episode was made as a response to 9/11 and deals with Elmo becoming frightened by the fire and learning about what firefighters do and that he doesn't need to be scared as long as they can help. One home video, Sesame Street Visits the Firehouse also dealt with a fire. | |

A rather dark and tragic example occurs in X-Men: Evolution fanfic A Time to Burn Bridges by Artemis's Liege. Rogue returns to the house where she was raised, after her diabolical adoptive mother Mystique cruelly uses her then betrays her, in order to bury her recently deceased other adoptive mother who was actually good to her. After the funeral, Rogue douses the interior of the house with gasoline to deliberately create a fire, momentarily reconsiders her actions for a few moments after reminiscing about the happy memories she has there, and then just lights up her childhood home anyway. | |

Sam manages to save Abigail, but gets trapped inside, and leaps out just as a burning ceiling collapses on him... which unfortunately means that poor old Clayton leaps back in.

A fire that destroyed a funeral home and killed its owners (a kindly middle-aged couple) is the main driver in the often tumultuous relationship between their sons, The Undertaker and Kane. During a 1998 episode of WWE Raw, their mutual friend-enemy Paul Bearer reveals that Kane (Undertaker's "brother") had set fire to the funeral home, killing their parents; it had been thought by Undertaker that Kane was also "killed" in the fire, only for him to learn that Kane survived. Bearer (who was at the funeral home when the fire broke out, and escaped without injury) had Kane institutionalized after suffering extreme emotional and physical trauma, and he claimed that Undertaker knew that Kane survived, learned of his brother's whereabouts and began abusing him for his sadistic pleasure. The story continued on and off for the past 15-plus years, but always comes back to this root story. | |

Skyfall: In the climax, Bond, M and Old Retainer Kincade are holed up in Bond's family's Scotland manor as the villain's forces lay siege. At first, they do pretty well with a few old hunting rifles and improvised explosives...until the villain actually arrives by helicopter and starts throwing grenades through the windows. Not to be outdone, Bond rigs a bomb of his own while M and Kincade escape via a secret tunnel. | |

The Sun Hill police station burned down twice in the The Bill; both times allowing a revamped set and a turnover in cast. In "Golden Opportunity" (2002), PC Des Taviner throws a Molotov Cocktail through the window of Inspector Munroe's office to destroy a counterfeit banknote that would prove he had stolen money off someone he had arrested. However, unbeknown to him, the decorators who are in the process of refurbishing the station have left all their equipment in Monroe's office - including two gas canisters. As Des throws the petrol bomb, the ensuing explosion engulfs the whole station. The explosion and resulting fire kills six officers and completely guts the station. In "Confessions of a Killer", a crook rams the station with a van filled with containers of petrol. Although it initially fails to detonate, it is subsequently set off by a mobile phone. Three officers die in the ensuing fire. |

Little House on the Prairie: While many episodes featured houses being damaged or destroyed due to fire, the most famous example was the 1980 episode "May We Make Them Proud," where a burning pipe is left in some blankets in the basement of the School For the Blind. The fire spreads upstairs, eventually destroying the house and killing Alice Garvey and Adam Kendall Jr. (both of whom are trapped in the flames). In one of the last episodes of the series, 1983's "For the Love of Blanche," one of the few dramatic points in an otherwise lighthearted program had baby Rose Wilder knock down a lamp, causing a small fire. Blanche, an orangutan whom Mrs. Olesen wanted killed after it attacked Nancy in self defense, saves Rose's life and alerts Jenny Wilder, who puts out the fire before it causes any major damage. |

EastEnders has had oh so many. The prime example was when Little Mo's abusive husband Trevor snapped and doused their house in petrol with them and Little Mo's baby trapped inside. Mo bravely (or stupidly) lit a match in defiance, but in a scuffle the match was dropped and the house caught fire. Heroic fireman Tom managed to rescue both Little Mo and her baby, but when he went back for Trevor an explosion killed them both. | |

Pokémon Reset Bloodlines: Red's Past Experience Nightmares hint strongly hint that he was in one when he was younger, and that his mother died in it. Later revelations add that he might have accidentally caused it when his bloodliner powers awakened. Alish, Blaine's granddaughter, was raised by him since her parents also died in a fire themselves. A Serial Killer known as the Bloodliner Hunter attempts to kill one of his victims this way. Thankfully she survives thanks to the intervention of a G-Man who happened to be near the area when it happened. |

The Hogan Family: A memorable 1987 episode, "Burned Out," depicts the Hogans being forced to flee their home after an old lamp shorts out in the attic. The upper story and attic are heavily damaged, but the main focus of the episode is on the family's renewed grief over losing their matriarch, Valerie (Valerie Harper having left the series earlier in the year, and her character having being killed off in a previous episode). The most poignant scene involves teen-aged son David investigating the damage in his room, and seeing the charred remains of his mother's picture on what used to be his nightstand; he sees it and breaks down in tears. (In a way, that scene depicted a reality for many families who lose a loved one, then most if not all pictures and other mementoes of the deceased loved one's life are destroyed by fire.) And the second most involved him revealing a prayer he had made when discovered what was happening and was unable to find his family: "Dear God, I just lost my mother. Please don't take them too." |

Family Guy: In the first-season episode "Mind Over Murder," Peter — who is under house arrest after being convicted of assault — opens a bar in the basement of his home. Things are going well under a carelessly discarded cigarette ignites a fire; Peter and Lois (who have gotten into a fight over her desire to sing for the patrons) are having a heart-to-heart talk, unaware of the danger to them until the fire has grown to engulf much of the basement bar and trap them both. Meanwhile, Stewie has built a time machine that will allow him to move in time — this time, to a point where he isn't teething. Just as the fire has spread upstairs, Stewie accidentally reverses time ... to a point before he goes into teething, and in the process saves the lives of Peter and Lois, and Peter from having an assault conviction. Why? Because in the "new present," Peter trips over the time machine, becoming injured and not having to go to take Chris to a soccer game where he and the woman got into the argument, leading to the assault. In another episode, "Jerome is the New Black" (from season 8), Peter causes a house fire that destroys new friend Jerome's house. |

Here, Mark — realizing he may have inadvertently caused the fire by kicking over a noisy space heater that was old and in poor working condition — rushes into a burning bed-and-breakfast (where its proprietors and their teen-aged daughter live) to save the girl trapped inside but, overcome by heavy smoke, falls unconscious. Don't worry: Mark regains consciousness and saves the girl. While the girl appears to be uninjured, Mark suffers burns on his arms and face. | |

The Burrow burns down in the movie version of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Between that film and the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, fans were wondering how this would affect the wedding of Bill and Fleur given that in the book the event took place at the Burrow. In the end, the burning of the Burrow was a Big Lipped Alligator Moment as the Burrow just appeared for the wedding scene as if nothing happened. Although, it does seem to be recently repainted, implying that it was simply rebuilt in between films. | |
