Tracker Season 3: Release date, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
Fans of Tracker are counting down the days for Season 3, and honestly, it's easy to see why. The show's mix of gritty action, emotional storytelling, and unique take on the weekly procedural drama has built a loyal following—and Justin Hartley's performance as Colter Shaw is at the center of it all. Season 2 wrapped up in May 2025 with some game-changing reveals, and now, the buzz around what's next is heating up fast. Here's a laid-back look at everything we know so far about Tracker Season 3, from its release date and cast changes to what the next chapter might bring. Release Date for Tracker Season 3
Mark your calendars— Tracker Season 3 officially premieres on October 19, 2025, airing Sunday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. Filming started back in mid-July 2025 and will continue through April 2026, all set against the stunning backdrop of Vancouver, British Columbia. And for those catching up or rewatching, Seasons 1 and 2 are already streaming on Paramount+ in the U.S., with select regions getting it via Disney+. New Season 3 episodes will also be available on Paramount+ the day after their CBS broadcast. Tracker Season 3 Cast: Who's Returning?
The Tracker Season 3 cast is seeing some shake-ups, with a leaner core team and familiar faces returning to drive the story forward. Here's the breakdown: Justin Hartley as Colter Shaw : The heart of the series, Hartley returns as the lone-wolf 'rewardist' who tracks missing people for cash. His compelling performance continues to anchor the show.
Fiona Rene as Reenie Greene : Colter's sharp-witted lawyer and occasional sidekick is back, bringing chemistry and charm to the team.
Jensen Ackles as Russell Shaw : Colter's estranged brother, played by the Supernatural star, is expected to return after stealing scenes in Season 2. Despite his busy schedule, Ackles is reportedly in talks to appear.
Wendy Crewson as Mary Dove Shaw : Colter's mother will likely return, especially after Season 2's shocking reveal about her potential role in Ashton Shaw's death.
Lee Tergesen as Ashton Shaw : Colter's father is expected to appear in flashbacks, deepening the family mystery.
Sofia Pernas as Billie : The bounty hunter who's crossed paths with Colter before is likely to make another appearance.
Chris Lee as Jay Exley: Introduced in Season 2 as Bobby's cousin, Jay steps up as Colter's tech support, filling the void left by a departing cast member.
Notably, the team is shrinking. Abby McEnany (Velma Bruin) and Eric Graise (Bobby Exley) won't return for Season 3, following Robin Weigert's exit as Teddi Bruin after Season 1. These departures shift the dynamic, with Colter relying more on himself and a tighter crew. Executive producer Elwood Reid has teased a restructured team, moving away from the 'call-a-friend' formula to focus on Colter's independence. Plot Details: What to Expect in Tracker Season 3
While Tracker keeps its signature style of new cases every week, Season 3 is going to peel back more layers of Colter's complicated past. Expect the usual thrills—missing person hunts, tricky criminals, and intense action—but the real heart of the season will lie in the fallout from that Season 2 finale.
If you remember, the final episode, 'Echo Ridge,' ended with a jaw-dropper: Otto Waldron confessed he killed Colter's father, Ashton, after being asked to do so by Colter's mother . Yeah—Mary might have had a darker role in the family's history than anyone thought. That twist alone sets up a deeply personal storyline, with Colter likely chasing answers about Mary's motives and her connection to a scientist named David Pearson, who mysteriously died the same year as Ashton. Even a disconnected phone number found in Ashton's stuff might come back to haunt him.
The new season will walk a fine line between standalone drama and a deeper, serialized family mystery. Hartley has teased that Colter is far from invincible—he's human, vulnerable, and may even come close to death. With plenty of surprises, a leaner cast, and the writers planting subtle clues from past episodes, Season 3 promises to push both the character and the audience further into the world of Tracker .

Computer, Please End Program: 6 STAR TREK Holodeck Malfunctions
On Star Trek, one of the most famous pieces of technology is the holodeck. But unlike most Starfleet equipment, this device is just as likely to malfunction as to operate correctly. For more evidence that this is true, just check the most recent episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. 'A Space Adventure Hour' reveals the first time that a holodeck was tested on a Starfleet ship. And, well… you can probably guess what happens next. For this week's Trek Tuesday, we're recalling six times the holodeck malfunctioned. Did we include your favorite? Cover image credit: Marni Grossman/Paramount+ The Practical Joker The episode that first introduced the holodeck was Star Trek: The Animated Series Season 2's 'The Practical Joker.' In this episode, the holodeck was called 'the rec room.' This is referenced in Strange New Worlds' 'A Space Adventure Hour,' when Christopher Pike (Anson Mount) calls the holodeck the 're-creation room.' RELATED: Two Takes Trek: A Holodeck Whodunnit In 'The Practical Joker,' the computer of the U.S.S. Enterprise under the command of James T. Kirk (William Shatner) gains sentience. This leads to the computer playing 'practical jokes' on the Enterprise crew. Some are more harmless, like printing 'Kirk is a Jerk' on the back of Kirk's uniform. But the situation is more dire for Leonard 'Bones' McCoy (DeForest Kelly), Hikaru Sulu (George Takei) and Nyota Uhura (Nichelle Nichols). They end up trapped in the rec room, where the safety protocols are turned off, leaving them threatened by the simulated elements. Elementary, Dear Data The series that fully introduced the holodeck to viewers was Star Trek: The Next Generation. And in The Next Generation Season 3's 'Elementary, Dear Data,' the show introduced the most memorable holodeck character: James Moriarty (Daniel Davis). The trouble begins when Geordi LaForge (LeVar Burton) instructs the computer to create an adversary capable of facing Data (Brent Spiner). Unfortunately, the computer succeeds in this task a bit too well. The hologram version of Moriarty is so smart, he becomes aware of the fact that he's a hologram. And he wants out of the holodeck! Moriarty would return again in The Next Generation Season 6 episode 'Ship in a Bottle.' Our Man Bashir What's worse than a holodeck malfunction? A holodeck malfunction combined with a transporter malfunction! In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 4's 'Our Man Bashir,' Julian Bashir (Alexander Siddig) is enjoying a holosuite program that bears a striking resemblance to James Bond. Meanwhile, Benjamin Sisko (Avery Brooks), Kira Nerys (Nana Visitor), Worf (Michael Dorn), Jadzia Dax (Terry Farrell) and Miles O'Brien (Colm Meany) are returning from a mission aboard a runabout. RELATED: Star Trek : Tracing the Holodeck's History Michael Eddington (Kenneth Marshall) attempts to beam the away team off the runabout before it explodes. Due to the explosion, the officers are trapped in the transporter buffer. Eddington acts quickly to save them, but they end up taking the place of characters in Bashir's holosuite spy program. Heroes and Demons Thanks to its holographic doctor and being trapped in the Delta Quadrant, Star Trek: Voyager had its share of holodeck episodes. In the Voyager Season 1 episode 'Heroes and Demons,' The Doctor (Robert Picardo) gets to go on his very first 'away mission.' The action begins when Voyager beams aboard a sample of a protostar to study. But unbeknownst to the crew, they also inadvertently beam aboard a lifeform alongside the sample. This lifeform begins causing crew members to vanish into a Beowulf holodeck program. Thus, it is up to the Doctor to infiltrate the holodeck and rescue the crew from the program. Terminal Provocations Photo Cr: Best Possible Screen Grab CBS ©2020 CBS Interactive, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Sometimes, holodeck malfunctions can have lasting effects. Such was the case for Star Trek: Lower Decks Season 1's 'Terminal Provocations.' In this episode, Samanthan Rutherford (Eugene Cordero) is eager to show off for D'Vana Tendi (Noël Wells). He attempts this via a training hologram he created, Badgey (Jack McBrayer). RELATED: Star Trek: Picard Season 3: Everything to Know About Hologram Moriarty But unfortunately, part of Rutherford's younger and angrier personality affected Badgey's coding. When safety protocols fail, Badgey attempts to murder Rutherford. While Rutherford defeats Badgey in 'Terminal Provocation,' the patricidal hologram returns in many episodes over the course of the series. Su'Kal Photo Cr: Michael Gibson/CBS ©2020 CBS Interactive, Inc. All Rights Reserved. In the Star Trek: Discovery episode 'Su'Kal,' the crew of the U.S.S. Discovery is on a mission to rescue Su'Kal (Bill Irwin). This Kelpien has been stranded aboard a ship for over a century. And in order to keep him safe, the entire ship has been converted into a holodeck. When Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green), Hugh Culber (Wilson Cruz) and Saru (Doug Jones) beam aboard the ship, they are startled to find that the holodeck makes them appear as different species. While it takes until a subsequent episode, Saru is eventually able to convince Su'Kal to shut down the holodeck program, allowing everyone to safely escape from the Kelpien ship. The Star Trek episodes discussed in this article are currently available for streaming on Paramount+.
