What Time Is ‘Tracker’ On Tonight? How To Watch ‘Tracker’s Season 3 Premiere Live On CBS And Online

Great news, Tracker fans! After an agonizing five-month hiatus, CBS’s hit survivalist drama is back. In other words, you can finally give your Sunday Scaries a night off.

For those who need a reminder, when we last left Colter Shaw (Justin Hartley) in Tracker‘s Season 2 finale he had learned some jaw-dropping secrets about his father’s death and his mother’s involvement. So Season 3 is kicking things off with a two-part premiere that dives deeper into the truth.

While Tracker Season 3 will be missing Velma (Abby McEnany) and Bobby (Eric Graise), Reenie (Fiona Rene) and Randy (Chris De’Sean Lee) will be back to help Colter — not to mention, the premiere marks the return of Colter’s brother, Russell Shaw, played by fan-favorite guest star Jensen Ackles.

The official CBS synopsis for Tracker‘s Season 3 premiere, “The Process,” written by Elwood Reid and directed by Ken Olin, is as follows: “As Colter grapples with the shocking truth surrounding his father’s death, Russell joins forces with his brother to help track down the missing wife and daughter of one of Reenie’s clients. Their reunion finds them mixed up in a chain of events involving a sinister underground operation known as ‘The Process.’”
