“Tracker” (TV-14) – Justin Hartley (“This Is Us”) leads this new CBS action-drama series based on the novel “The Never Game” by Jeffery Deaver. Hartley plays – cue the burliest name you can think of – Colter Shaw, a “lone-wolf survivalist” with excellent tracking skills. Colter travels around the country to help citizens and law enforcement solve the mind-boggling mysteries and tragedies that have affected their town. In the first episode, Colter heads to Klamath Falls, Oregon, to dig deeper into the disappearance of a 14-year-old boy. Hartley also serves as an executive producer for the series, so here’s hoping this network show will be gripping enough to pull in viewers and get picked up for another season. The first two episodes are out now, with subsequent episodes premiering every Sunday. (Paramount+)
