I was hoping that police officer from the 1st episode would be in more episodes. I don't like a new "partner" in every episode. Although his ex-girlfriend/lawyer seems to be the one to be that partner.
I find it irritating, that he is on the road, headed to a different state each week, yet she still pops up. How unlikely is that, plus doesn't each state have it's own legal bar to pass How come she is never in court for an actual crime defense, that would take a few weeks or months to prepare for. Nope, she is waltzing around the country looking for Colter. LOL
The only parts of the first two episodes where I was engaged were during the flashbacks of the main character's childhood. Those were great. Real tension and drama, and for once the writers were not showing all their cards and explaining everything. No one said, "You pushed dad off a cliff!" They just showed what happened and let the audience figure it out. If they would do that, this show might actually be good.
Either that, or just go all in with the campy Captain Obvious writing. Tracker seems lonely in his truck all by himself. Give him a chimp and a new pretty lady to save from danger every week.
For some reason, I still like the show. I think it's because of the mystery, investigation and action/adventure. They need to move up a notch on the adult part of this. This is like a kids show!
It's already been renewed for Season 2 though. I was slightly surprised because it's just so hard to get the number of viewers these days for network shows but i guess it was good enough?

I have a similar feeling.
I keep watching, and I like the series.. even tho it's hard to convey its merits.
It's sort of like a basic comfort food. There's nothing new or special about it, but it leaves me with a good feeling. Other than the lesbian handlers, one looking like later Roger Ebert.. this show feels like something from 1991. And I think that speaks to your point about its G-rated simplicity. It reminds me of old mystery series, where they were equally appealing to both parents and kids watching simultaneously.. which I think is becoming rare today. And like your link reveals, other people are feeling it. CBS' highest rated new series in 7 years. The Super Bowl lead-in helped, but it is sustaining something right.
The last episode (episode 8: Clemmons) was not bad at all. I just hope they keep building on the storylines, maybe have more regular characters, more action and slowly they can not be so obvious. Glad it was renewed for season 2, but they gotta prolly have to "upgrade" the show if they want to make it last beyond Season 2.
One thing I hate these days is that shows I like barely can last 2 seasons. The network cancels it quickly.
Last episode was surprisingly good. I must say, I'm surprised at this show and it's decent. Let's keep making it better because Season 2 is always difficult/challenging for new network TV shows.
