While Colter Shaw is the face of Tracker, the show has been quietly building a strong roster of female characters who add depth and dimension to its storytelling.
Velma Bruin, played with warmth and wit by Abby McEnany, offered humor and grounded perspective in earlier seasons. Bobby Exley (Eric Graise) may have been the tech wizard, but Velma’s pragmatism often saved Colter from his own reckless impulses. Gabrielle Walsh’s Reenie Green, introduced later, brought fresh energy and complexity to Colter’s world.
Even the women who appear only in single-episode arcs leave a mark. From desperate mothers to sharp investigators, they reflect the diverse ways women navigate crises. They’re not damsels in distress—they’re fully formed individuals with agency, whose lives Colter intersects with, but doesn’t define.
As Tracker continues, fans are calling for even richer female storylines. If the series can lean into this strength, it might evolve from a lone-wolf drama into a fuller exploration of community and connection.
