This is a very clean-cut and overly-done show but I really missed them. I rated it a 8/10 for what it is. It's not Game of Thrones. It's unpretentious, doesn't take itself too seriously and is the perfect Saturday fare that I used to watch as a kid.

The protagonist is a lone wolf, bad boy with a golden heart, dark past, falls in love with a new love interest each episode, is better than anyone else at fighting, thinking, policing, tracking, etc.. and defeats the "villain of the week" with ease.

I missed this so that's why I rated this so highly, but it's really cute and cozy and you definitely know what you're getting into. Simple entertainment, without any agenda. Just a decent guy trying to make the world a better place, one reward at a time. Quite fun.

I wasn't sure that I was going to watch Tracker because to be honest there just aren't too many good shows on network tv anymore and there a million shows like this one so for me to watch it it would have to really stick out and be good. Well, Tracker has. Besides hearing nothing but good things about this show it's also the most watched show on tv. Like I said, most of the best shows are now on a streaming service or cable but Tracker has become one of the best on network tv. I've been a fan of Justin Hartley since Smallville and have always wondered why he hasn't been given a chance to star in big show. Now that he has he's more than shown he can carry a show because he's the best part of this show.

Tracker S3E4

If you're in a hotel room and someone knocks in your door and you ask who they are, they don't identify themselves. You walk up to the door you ask again and they don't identify themselves, you don't look through the peephole but you open up the door, not knowing who it is. Who in their right minds would do something that stupid? If someone knocks even on my home door and I ask who it is, and they can't give me an answer, there's no way in the world I am unlocking my door. So why in God's name does CBS continuously make people out to be morons in order to advance the plot of their shows. Surely their writers can do a better job of coming up with a way of abducting somebody then turning that person into an idiot .

I wasn't sure what to expect with this series. At first, it seemed to start a little slow, introducing some background of the main character and the questionable family history. After watching a few more episodes it has grown on me and I quite enjoy it. I like the individuality of each episode; each having it's own unique story, somewhere different and keeping the main premise - Colter Shaw finds people/things for rewards. Seems some people forget that. It also drip-feeds more intrigue into his family, to keep it interesting. It has taken me a while to 'warm up' to the Reenie character, don't know why, can't put my finger on it. Justin Hartley has been excellently cast. I like the other characters as well. Having just finished S2, I am looking forward to another season.

If you've read the books, you know that Colter Shaw is very matter of fact and quick to a plan and follows through that plan by his actions. Throughout his "rewards" he's trying to uncover the fate of his father and his brother. The other reviewers are making negative comments regarding Colter that are actually true to the books. If you liked the books, this is pretty much on the mark. I'm looking forward to more episodes and since I did read all the bools, I know Colter will get into more "outlandish" situations and get himself out of it. I've read Lee Childs, too and Jack is a lot more violent, but both he and Colter always hatch a plan, see it through without, well, almost, without a hitch and save the day. And not everything is political.

I started watching because of Justin Hartley, I will watch anything with him, really. The series turned out to be very interesting and makes me feel good. The first season was a little too "by the book", even though the cases were interesting. But the second one picked it up even more and I am really enjoying the stories, they seem to be more complicated. I wouldn't call this a masterpiece but it does make you feel warm and fuzzy inside. I miss these sort of easy-going and nice stories with an interesting twist. The main story is also interesting. I also like how they are showing different places in US in different episodes. Give it a try, the first episodes give you a very good idea of what the series is about.

Ok first of all, this is a great show, I never really know what to expect and they are really good about throwing out red herrings. But my literal favorite thing about this show...other than Justin Hartley's hotness and the random appearance of Jensen Ackles...love him...is Justin Hartley's / Colter Shaw's serious lack of emotion. He just blue steels his way through everything, people will be all emotional and crying and he's just like "OK" and then walks away. I'm going to be very disappointed when they give him emotions. But it got a 9/10 because they could utilize Jensen Ackles a little better and I am not a fan of the rotating cast. I like Reenie and Randy...but I liked Bobby and Velma and Teddy too.

It always amazes me how many people watch these generic procedurals. I know I'm not the target audience, but basic cable keeps churning out these objectively bland shows that has no character development, no chemistry between romantic partners, sex is extremely cheap (girl cop falls into bed because he tells one sob story about his dead dad), and annoying plot holes that's waved away very easily. Lead guy always makes the right call (even if logically it doesn't make sense in real life), always partnered with a tech person that basically does half the job for said lead character. All while the music sounds like it's made by the same person across all 50 or so of these shows.

I love this show and now into it's 2nd season. I feel like I'd have missed out on watching this if I'd read the reviews before hand so very glad I didn't.

My only little niggle is I'd wish the long running story would hurry up and be solved, I need closure, he needs closure, we all need closure haha 😄 I don't understand why there's so many negative reviews. Each episode has its own different story of colter finding a missing person/animal. They all tie up nicely and it's really easy watching. I've just binged watched 10 episodes in 2 nights.

Give it a go, I promise you'll not be disappointed!!

The second season is much better than the first. Finally, the tracker is starting to live up to the series' name - and we see more trackers, a little more survival, spatial awareness that suits the terrain, and even more eccentric characters who live in the wild.

There is still a lot to improve, but it is definitely a change for the better As someone who decided to watch this series just because of the name, I almost created it in the first season which was not at all related to nature and outdoor skills; But I'm happy that my hope that the central element I was looking for in the series really appears more and more in the second season and it also makes all the stories in the series much more interesting and cool. For those who have the patience to endure the first season and wait for the second, it is recommended.

I liked Justin Hartley on This is Us, so I thought I would give it a shot. This show is so bad. I'm not sure if it is Because of trying to make each of the episodes self supporting, but the simplicity of the plots has been laughable. The characters are boilerplate, from the chiseled, indestructible lead, to the hacker dude that can access data in seconds that evidently Iowa enforcement can't find, to the multitude of attractive women with little depth all fawning over the lead.

This dude can somehow home in on people that have been missing long enough to require a reward being posted without a single stray thread to chase down or a single wrong turn in the expanse of the Rockies. Even more miraculous is that he has cell reception every time he needs it, and he never gets hurt despite being in fights in every episode.

I'm still trying to determine what exactly differentiates the roles of the supporting characters. There is no depth for any of them. They all seem to be caricatures of roles the writers once saw on other shows and the actors do nothing to add to their parts.

This would have been so much more watchable if they would have allowed each trek to span multiple episodes which would have allowed for a few red herrings and less predictability. Then they wouldn't have needed the road grader to flatten the plot and character development.

There's only one episode out so far but it's off to a good start.

I like the lead actor. He still looks like he did 20 years ago when he was in Smallville which should probably be illegal.

It's a little too early to tell where this show is going and how much of an ongoing storyline there'll be.

Additionally, there are some pleasant nature shots. The pacific northwest always makes for a good background.

Don't get me wrong, this won't be anyone's favourite show of all time but it doesn't have to be. This seems to be one of those shows where you just sit back and have a comfortable time once a week,

This is a series full of action and suspenseful mystery. Each episode offers a new adventure with high tension and clever puzzle-solving. Beyond the action, the Shaw family mystery provides an emotional layer that keeps you intrigued. The series successfully combines elements of investigation, family drama, and survival, making it an exciting and suspenseful watch. The chemistry between the characters also steals the show, especially Justin's interactions with Jensen Ackles' character in the special episode, full of funny jokes and exciting dynamics. For lovers of mystery and adventure stories, Tracker is a very captivating choice.

There was a similar show a while ago called The Finder (2012) which had a similar premise. This is a bit different though. While still light hearted, it's not a comedy/drama but a drama with occasional comedy.

It could have been cool if he was the guy doing stuff - like MacGyver - but this guy has a team on his rooster that are all superfluous. All of the things his team does, he could just as well do himself.

All the scenes with his team are boring and seems to be shoehorned into an otherwise promising show. The show has the same vibes as Human Target (2010), but based on what we've seen so far, I'm not sure if it will be as good as that was.

Still, happy to see a drama/action show with 0 supernatural stuff going on. If I could have my pick, we'd have a new Punisher episode every day, but these fillers will have to do for now.

Tracker is every bit as good as the reviews here have pointed out. It's about a man named Colter Shaw (Justin Hartley) who's dad raised him giving him tools to be a survivalist. He uses those skills and his natural instincts to find missing people and collect rewards. He has team that includes a lawyer, a business handler and tech expert that helps him find these people. Colter will do any and everything to find these missing people. I'm not saying this is the best show that in tv but it is quite the entertaining show. This is a procedural show that has a new case every week. Justin Hartley absolutely kills it as the lead here and makes the show worth watching. It's the #1 show on tv and currently has a 90% on Rotten Tomatoes so it's liked by both the audience and critics.

Yesterday (11/17/25 I watched Tracker. Poorly written where he tracks the four kids.

1. He said the father made his own camo outfit! Wrong. I am a hunter. You can buy that outfit at Cabela's / Bass pro Shops.

2. He tracks them in the forest, cliffs only to come out to cabins accessed by roads!!!!! Simple map would have gotten them to the kids. Supposed to be a rugged trail in remote area 3. Father goes through kidnapping only to give up so easily. Seemed rushed due to page script length.

4. He only has a backpack and light clothing.

5. Obviously, none of the writers and actors never set foot in rugged terrain. I always liked the other episodes, but this one was bad.

Ideal premise and great lead in Justin Hartley. This could be a great show but it's spoiled every time the Bruin characters appear! Completely kills any tension that might be building. A real shame.

I still enjoy watching purely for Hartley though - he's got such a great screen presence and it's disappointing he's not been given better movie roles. Could big an even bigger star!

Some really well shot locations in this too, a nice change from the usual city settings in most series.

Would like to see more of a thread throughout the season rather than just the self contained episodes, (in addition to the family history, that is).

May 2025: I just changed my rating from a 7 to a 4. Season 2 is just horrible: far-fetched plots that aren't anything like the original season. We had really gotten to like Tracker last year but are so disappointed in season 2 that we are likely go to stop watching. They clearly changed writers and for the worse. They should go back to their original writers and stick with interesting plots about actually tracking people down, not over-acted, over-produced over-dramatic plots. It's really too bad.

April 2024: I just changed my rating from a 4 to a 7. The show has gotten better all around. Definitely give it a try.

Original Review (before update above) I really wanted to like this new show and was eager to see it. After watching the first episode, however, I am extremely disappointed. It's just terrible. I don't think it's Justin Hartley but everything else about it: the other characters (all predictable, all caricatures, some terribly acted), and the plot (again, predictable and trite). Some other viewers have suggested Justin Hartley's acting is stiff and bad. I don't think so; in fact, I think he's pretty good in this. But that can't compensate for the banal script and terrible plot. I might give it one more try and watch the second episode, but if it isn't exponentially better, I'm giving up.

I like Tracker. The star is very charismatic and a good actor. I love that they bring in Jenson Ackles as his older brother time to time. I wish they had more of him. The stories are good American stories without a ton of sex and trashy story lines. Very much a 21st century western kind of series. The second season is better than the first and hope that keeps up!

I SO much wanted to like this series. I really did. But the pilot was just borderline, so I optimistically waited for S1E2. Unfortunately, it further confirmed my initial reaction: this is Déjà vu TV and not in a good way. So far everything has been done before--and better.

Older viewers can probably remember shows that have used this same formula: protagonist with baggage in his past works with a somewhat nerdy guy/gal who does the tech behind the scenes, and is supported by handlers that behave like office managers. The story lines have been superficial, the action sequences forced and illogical.

There's also some very amateurish editing. For example, in S1E2 at approximately 11 minutes, it's raining and his truck is wet, windows dotted with drops. The very next scene right afterwards the truck is not only dry and detailed spotless, but the passenger window is rolled down. Seconds ago it was a downpour. Really? Most scenes are not filmed contiguously, but since these shots occur sequentially, it was quite an obvious gaffe.

I know we live in a world of remakes, re-issues, re-mixes and sequels to the max. It's a sign of no originality and lack of writing talent. Yes, this show *might* survive past S1 as we've seen that quality does not correlate with success (and the opposite is also true). Intelligent shows have suffered premature deaths while drivel like could potentially live on. Perhaps Paramount will put it out of its misery sooner than later.

No, it's not the worst show on TV, but I'm going to pass on the remaining episodes.

This is more of a classic style detective show rather than the hard-hitting cop shows popular nowadays. Justin Hartley pulls it off quite well as the handsome dude who, along with his witty lawyer sometimes-sidekick Reenie, charms his way through skeptical law enforcement into finding missing people.

The show remains fairly upbeat and doesn't get too dark. They start to pick up with a bit of a grittier style in S2 and I hope they continue.

I think ultimately the show will come down to how well the writers can weave in the main plot of his family background. They haven't done a whole lot with it so far, and honestly it hasn't been all that interesting - although Jensen Ackles as his brother was a major plus for the show. It has mostly been a "missing person of the week" style, but S2E9 just wrapped up a longer side story in what was the best episode to date. Hopefully the writers are able to dive further into the multi-episode or even longer-running quests instead of wrapping every story up with the end of the same episode.

The helpers Hartley has are forgettable with the exception of Reenie, so Hartley is doing all the heavy lifting.

As many reviewers have said, this COULD be a great show. The first 10 minutes of the pilot show the protagonist finding a lost hiker deep in the wilderness. Okay, cool! That, to me, seems like what a tracker should do.

Unfortunately, that's all the "tracking" you're going to get. The rest is standard TV BS of a backup team of "cool weirdo" hackers pulling up data in 5 seconds that the cops couldn't even find with a warrant, instantly giving the protagonist all the info he needs to find the lost person in question.

Okay, I admit, in episode 4, there is some "tracking" but it's literally the protagonist shining his flashlight on a bootprint next to a giant bloodstain in the middle of a forest. Um, no offense, but even I could follow that track, and I grew up in cities all my life.

Frankly, the writers don't seem to know what they want this to be - is it a Reacher clone? Well, the protagonist mostly sucks at fighting and never kills anyone. Is it NCIS? Well, they are finding criminals, but mostly they get a pat on the back at the end and a "tsk tsk you naughty boy."

What even is this? Even poor "Reenie Green" (god what an awful name) can't spice this up with a little sexual banter. And Colter mostly looks like he's constipated as he spends his days driving around an enormous truck in order to ask witnesses one question, after which they just tell him literally everything he asks for.

Coulda been a contender. Instead, it's a yawn.

Good guys win, all's fine. Unfortunately, Colter does little tracking, his friends find things out for him, it's lucky that he has service on his phone wherever he is. I would have loved more tracking and also more humour. The episode with jensen ackles stands out for that too. Apart from a couple of fixed characters, the acting is regrettable; s2 ep.17 is cringeworthy.

It's a very "feel good" show but could definitely be improved.

I really love this series and find the plot compelling, but it's genuinely hard for me to overlook how highly unrealistic it is, particularly concerning the work and operational activity of Bobby, the lead cyber-specialist. His portrayed competence, the impossible speed at which he executes complex digital tasks, and his constant, often inappropriate sarcasm while under immense pressure are all elements that are just badly unrealistic, frankly bordering on ridiculous. While I try my best to suspend my disbelief and manage to enjoy the overall narrative and character development, I must admit that this specific, exaggerated portrayal of the "hacker" archetype makes enjoying the show an ongoing struggle.
