Is ‘Tracker’ New This Week On CBS? ‘Tracker’ Season 3 Return Date

Sunday Scaries hit different when there’s no new episode of Tracker on CBS. So when does Justin Hartley’s hit survivalist drama return with new Season 3 episodes?

Tracker‘s Season 2 finale premiered back on May 11, which means it’s been three months without new Colter Shaw (Hartley) adventures. When we last left the top-notch tracker, he headed back home on a job, visited his mom Mary Dove Shaw (Wendy Crewson), and learned some major revelations about the death of his father, Ashton Shaw (Lee Tergesen) — including the fact that his mom mom was involved somehow!

“I know we’ll get to the nitty-gritty of why my mother hired this guy,” Hartley told Variety in a recent interview teasing Season 3. “Was she protecting her kids? Was an affair happening? Was the government involved? Was it strictly just my mother? Why did she hide that from us for so long? Why did she lead me to believe that it was my brother who was involved when he wasn’t? It seems like this divide-and-conquer thing that she’s doing. It was just an odd thing to do with your children. There’s some deep psychosis there. We’ll unpack that.”

When Tracker returns for Season 3, the show will also look a bit different, since two key cast members departed after Season 2: Eric Graise (Bobby) and Abby McEnany (Velma). Fiona Rene (Reenie) will return alongside Hartley, though. And on Thursday, July 31, fan-favorite guest star Jensen Ackles confirmed he’ll be back as Colter’s brother, Russell. So how long do we have to wait for a Tracker reunion?

Is Tracker is on tonight, August 17? Will there be a Tracker Season 3 on CBS? And when does Tracker return with new episodes on CBS? Here’s everything to know about the future of Tracker on CBS, including Tracker’s Season 3 premiere date, Tracker streaming info, and more.
