because sometimes Colter is doing some really dark and heavy stuff,” he noted. The goal is to create well-rounded individuals who have their own lives outside of assisting Colter, thereby offering viewers deeper emotional connections with them.
For instance, Reid mentioned that characters like Reenie (Fiona Rene) and Randy (Chris Lee), still present in the series, will play a significant role. “Reenie takes a lot of the guilt on and she’s brought Randy up there to fix it,” Reid said. “You get to see them in the office. That forms a good bond between those two.” Additionally, new characters are expected to be introduced as the show expands Reenie’s law office, adding more depth to its narrative landscape.
Future of “Tracker”: More Changes on Horizon
Reid acknowledged that these changes do not necessarily mean the end for certain characters. “You never know,” he stated. “The only person that is safe is Justin.” Reid emphasized the need for growth in character development rather than just expanding action sequences or stunts. The executive producer concluded by assuring fans, “We’ve got a good team in place and we’re going to bring in another character.” This statement leaves room for further speculation about the direction of future episodes.
“Tracker” returns to CBS on Sunday, October 19, at 8 p.m. ET before streaming the next day on Paramount+. The upcoming season promises a mix of suspenseful cases and character-driven moments that will keep viewers engaged as the series continues its journey into its third season.
