CBS' crime drama showTrackeris heading into its second season,slated to premiere on August 19, 2025. With most ofTracker’s season 1 cast returning, new intriguing storylines, and higher stakes,Trackerseason 2is shaping up to be an even better story following a successful first season. AlthoughTrackerseason 1 aired just a few months before its second season, it only consisted of 13 episodes, premiering in the second half of the typical network TV year. This factor makesTrackerseason 2 premiering in 2024—the same year as its first season—plausible.
Trackerseason 2 will also bring new exciting changes. The announcement ofRobin Weigert not returning forTrackerseason 2, leading to Teddi and Velma’s inevitable separation, suggests that the narrative will shake up some established dynamics.Jensen Ackles, who portrays Russell Shaw, will reunite in season 2with Justin Hartley’s Colter Shaw, an anticipated reunion since they shared the screen in season 1, especially since Ashton Shaw’s death has not yet been resolved. Given the excitement leading up toTrackerseason 2’s premiere,it is critical to know the show’s premiere time.
