Tracker, the Justin Hartley-led series is crushing it! Not only did it perform strongly during premiere week, but it's continuing to dominate in 35-day multi-platform viewing! Cheers to the amazing cast, crew, and all you fantastic viewers for making this series a success!

CBS premiere week dominated the charts with an increase of 32% over last year. CBS had the top 16 shows of the week! This is the first time a network has accomplished this since at least 1987. 👏 📺
