It has traditionally been the biggest launching pad for a new series that there is on network TV – the show that debuts right after The Super Bowl.
 
This year, CBS and CTV get the honour of introducing a brand new drama both networks believe will be a huge hit with viewers – and with a big audience already there, they’re hoping most will stay tuned to see it, despite a long night of TV.
 
CBS is offering “Tracker,” an hour-long procedural featuring former This Is Us star Justin Hartley as a skilled tracker who solves mysteries using his special skills. The network has been promoting it heavily for a while and this is the first chance for audiences to see it.
 
And what is CTV doing with all those eyeballs? Why, simulcasting “Tracker,” of course! They do have a new Canadian show called “Sight Unseen” about a vision impaired detective, but have chosen to stick with the American fare, undoubtedly so they can continue the lucrative day long simsub.

“Sight” will still get a big launch, though – it debuts Jan. 21st, after the NFL division game.
 
“Tracker” gets its regular timeslot Sundays at 9 on CTV, and - you guessed it – simulcast with CBS. It’s one of the most anticipated new shows of the season. Here’s what the U.S. TV Guide has to say about it.
