“Tracker” Is Basically a National Emotional Crisis Hotline with One Guy and a Truck

Have You Lost Someone? Colter Shaw Has Entered the Chat.

When most people lose their keys, they retrace their steps.
When someone disappears in Tracker, Colter Shaw sniffs a pinecone and immediately knows where they went, what their emotional damage is, and what childhood book they read in 1997.

This man doesn’t just find people—he finds their secrets, their fears, and their deepest unspoken regrets. Usually in under 44 minutes, commercial breaks included.

Colter Shaw: Tracker, Therapist, Possibly a Wizard

We have questions.

  • How does he always know the way?

  • Why does his hair still look good after sleeping in his truck for 3 days?

  • Does he have a secret subscription to “Field Psychology Weekly”?

He’s like a blend of Bear Grylls, Sherlock Holmes, and a golden retriever with abandonment issues. And somehow… it works.

Every Episode: A Town, A Trauma, A Twisted Truth

Forget police reports and paperwork—Colter rolls into town, sniffs the air, and knows something shady’s going on. And then BAM: secrets unravel faster than a soap opera marathon.

By the time he’s done, the missing person is found, the townsfolk are in therapy, and Colter is already driving off into the sunrise like a man allergic to emotional closure.

The Real Mystery? Why We’re This Obsessed

We’ll be honest: Tracker is addictively soothing chaos.

You never know what’s coming:

  • Someone’s missing.

  • Someone’s lying.

  • Someone has a cabin in the woods with too many secrets.

  • Colter is brooding by a lake, looking like a postcard from Sad Man Monthly.

And we keep watching, not just because it’s thrilling, but because it’s weirdly healing. Like, am I okay? Or did Colter just make me feel something??

Tracker is proof that sometimes the person who needs saving the most is the one doing all the saving. Also, it’s proof that every town in America is hiding one very specific secret just waiting to be found by a man with a GPS and unresolved trauma.

📺 Catch Tracker on CBS. Bring tissues. And maybe a compass.
