11 Oct
Summary
- Season 4 premiere on Oct. 4, features a dangerous criminal operation.
- Production moved to Los Angeles for season 4 after three seasons in Vancouver.
- Justin Hartley hints at deeper personal truths and family history mysteries.
The compelling series 'Tracker' premiered its fourth season on Sunday, October 4th, continuing Justin Hartley's portrayal of Colter Shaw. The initial episode, "Safe Harbor," thrust Shaw into a complex investigation at the Port of Los Angeles, uncovering a dangerous criminal enterprise while searching for a missing father.
This season marks a significant production shift, as 'Tracker' moved from Vancouver to Los Angeles after three successful installments filmed in Canada. Actor Justin Hartley expressed pride in the Vancouver work but enthusiasm for exploring new locales for Colter's narratives.
Hartley has teased that the season's early cases will escalate dramatically, delving into "much bigger things" and revealing hidden truths. He also hinted at storylines that will challenge Shaw's personal code and confront lingering questions about his family's past. Jensen Ackles is set to reprise his role as Russell, Colter's brother, who is aware of a critical secret concerning their father.
While CBS has not yet confirmed the total episode count for season 4, the series has seen a gradual increase in episodes each season since its 2024 debut. 'Tracker' has become CBS's number one series, with Hartley attributing its success to a modern take on a classic procedural format where characters evolve over time.
Confirmed release dates for early season 4 episodes include "Safe Harbor" on October 4th, "Switchback" on October 11th, and "Original Parts" on October 18th. New episodes air Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on CBS, with the premiere airing at a special 9:30 p.m. ET slot. Episodes are also available for streaming on Paramount+.
