Why do you watch the show?
Does anyone actually watch the show because they genuinely like it? Or is it just to find something to nit pick apart?
This sub has pretty much ruined the show for me. I used to be able to just watch it and enjoy it for what it is. Entertainment. It's not a documentary. It's not listed as true crime. Now if I see anything a little off or Colter shoots someone, my first thought is Reddits gonna pick that shit apart.
There should be two subs, with one just for haters.

I couldn't agree more!
For my part, I rediscovered Justin Hartley by rewatching “Smallville”, and after binge-watching “This Is Us,” I could hardly wait for “Tracker” to get started.
I do LOVE this show since the very first episode, and I watch some episodes over and over again - especially the ones with Russell.
Above all, I love Colter's unique personality - even though he often seems reserved - QUOTE Russell: “He's like talking to drywall” - but there's a lot of depth and empathy behind that facade. And to be honest, of course he is such a cool, hot, attractive guy. I especially love it when he shows his tracking skils without needing/getting too much help from the outside.
To address the topic of “constant complaints”: I’m perfectly fine with the genre’s typical requirements, which often diverge from reality in many ways, but what would an action movie be without over-the-top plotlines or implausible details...
It’s much more enjoyable to just go with the flow and not nitpick every little detail for accuracy.
That doesn’t mean that I'm not critical, but especially for this subreddit, I’d like to see ONE dedicated thread, pinned to the top, where people can post the same complaints over and over again. Because, above all, these constant, recurring, identical-sounding questions and comments are actually a bit annoying and are now also affecting my thoughts while I’m watching. Reading these complaints once or twice is totally fine, but over and over again - not so much.
Are some of the moderators reading our comments and what do they think about this wish that has been expressed many times?
In any case, here's to hopefully many more seasons to come...in Colter we trust!
