Summary
Reviewers say 'Tracker' is lauded for its engaging premise, Justin Hartley's strong performance, and intriguing cases. The blend of action, suspense, and character-driven storytelling is appreciated. However, some find it formulaic with repetitive plots and underdeveloped characters. Complaints arise about the lack of genuine tracking elements and reliance on tech. Political undertones also detract for some, though it remains an enjoyable procedural drama.
Featured reviews
Very warm and makes you feel happy
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.
Does anyone know that this is a Jeffrey Deaver character?
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.
First episode impressions
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,

Justin Hartley is terrific as the lead
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.
Why does CBS make people stupid?
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 .
