“Tracker” May Be the Only Show Where a Man With a Truck Solves Everyone’s Problems (Except His Own)

One Man, One Truck, One National Crisis at a Time

Let’s be honest—if you see Colter Shaw pull into your town in that beat-up truck with a haunted look in his eye, something has gone terribly wrong.

Maybe your sister disappeared. Maybe your boss is secretly running a cult. Maybe your pet iguana has gone missing and is now leading a raccoon gang in the woods. Whatever it is, Tracker’s got you covered. Or, more accurately, Colter’s got you covered—as long as you don’t ask him how he’s doing. Because, spoiler alert: he’s not.

He Has No Home, But Everyone Wants Him in Theirs

Colter is the guy who knocks on your door, asks one question, and then knows your entire childhood trauma. It’s like therapy, but free, and with more forest chases.

He doesn’t sleep, eat, or ever change his clothes (we assume they’re self-cleaning via trauma absorption). He just shows up, solves your life, and disappears into the fog like a sad cowboy who read too many psychology textbooks.

Every Episode: “Oh no, we lost someone again!”

CBS: Say less.

If your local sheriff’s office can’t find a missing person in 48 hours, they don’t panic—they call the freelance survivalist with emotional damage and a compass.

Let’s be real: Tracker is the only show where one guy using vibes and tree bark is more effective than 20 federal agents with drones.

Colter Shaw’s Life Philosophy:

“Who needs a therapist when you can run into emotional metaphors in the woods?”

Lost girl? Found in a cave.
Missing brother? Check the old treehouse.
Your identity? That’s in Season 2, baby.

Colter’s superpower isn’t tracking. It’s making emotionally devastated people open up to a man who just walked in 10 seconds ago and smells like campfire.

He Solves Everything. Except… You Know, Himself.

Yes, Colter can find a missing person in 24 hours using broken twigs and a gut feeling. But ask him to talk about his own family trauma? You’ll see a man sprint into a national park faster than you can say “unresolved issues.”

He’s America’s emotional support ranger. And we love him for it.

Why You Need to Watch

  • Plot twists? Yes.

  • Mystery? Always.

  • Therapy disguised as action-adventure? You bet.

  • Justin Hartley looking rugged in flannel with intense eye contact? CHECK.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your trail mix, emotionally prepare yourself, and follow Colter into the unknown.

📺 Watch Tracker Sundays on CBS or stream on Paramount+ before Colter tracks YOU down to ask how you’re doing (emotionally).
