The weeks are counting down till Tracker returns for Season 3 within the 2025 TV schedule, with a a lot smaller solid of sequence regulars this time round. On the plus facet, Jensen Ackles is as soon as once more becoming a member of Justin Hartley as his on-screen brother, and he’ll really be round for extra episodes than I anticipated. Because the present hypes the upcoming return on social media, I’m not even somewhat bit stunned to see that Supernatural followers wasted no time find connections to Ackles’ earlier present.
Jensen Ackles’ Double Return To Tracker
Tracker will return with a two-part season premiere occasion unfold throughout two weeks, with Jensen Ackles taking part in Russell Shaw in each. After information broke that he’d reunite with Justin Hartley for Season 3 after wrapping on Prime Video’s Countdown, I’d assumed it might be one other one-off like his appearances in every of the primary two seasons. As a substitute, it seems that Colter can have his brother readily available in a giant strategy to begin out Season 3.
Whether or not that’s as a result of Russell is round to assist or Russell is in want of assist stays to be seen, however I’m on board with two episodes of Ackles reverse Hartley. (Each episodes with the Shaw brothers thus far can be found streaming with a Paramount+ subscription now.)
The primary half of the premiere known as “The Course of,” with CBS’ logline revealing that Russell will be a part of Colter to attempt to observe down the lacking spouse and youngster of one in every of Reenie’s shoppers within the wake of what he’d discovered about his father’s demise on the finish of Season 2. No matter occurs in “The Course of” presumably gained’t go completely based on plan, with the Shaw brothers racing to place an finish to an underground operation in Half 2 of the premiere, known as “Leverage.”
Followers Spot An Early Supernatural Reference
Tracker hasn’t shied away from nodding to Jensen Ackles’ fifteen seasons of Supernatural, with a bunch of Supernatural Easter eggs in simply his first episode. Contemplating that Ackles celebrated the twentieth anniversary of the Supernatural pilot virtually precisely a month earlier than the CBS present’s Season 3 premiere, the timing couldn’t be higher for his time as Dean Winchester to be alluded to. Check out the video that had followers speaking:
Admittedly, there’s no second within the preview that’s as apparent as Russell climbing into an Impala or sleeping in an inexpensive motel room a la the Winchester brothers, however that didn’t cease Supernatural followers from hitting the remark part to weigh in on the rock-paper-scissors second.
A working joke from again in Jensen Ackles’ CW days was that Dean virtually at all times misplaced rock-paper-scissors as a result of he virtually at all times used scissors. Listed here are simply a few of the examples of Supernatural followers making use of that lesson to Tracker within the Instagram feedback (edited for readability):
- @pmclean66: “Rock, paper, scissors. A Supernatural Easter egg 😂 Find it irresistible!”
- @laurensophxx: “Now I gotta know if Russell picks scissors or not.”
- @ aileenslayden: “Rock, paper, scissors, huh? I recommend you go for rock Justin… at all times works! 🤣 Can’t wait to see the present again once more!! 🥰”
- @spngirlie19: “Jensen’s SPN reference, nicely completed!! I’m so excited for Season 3!!!”

You possibly can revisit the primary two seasons streaming on Paramount+ now, and if you happen to’re not within the temper to take a look at some Supernatural seasons, yow will discover all fifteen streaming with a Netflix subscription now.
