The international rollout of 'The Hunting Wives' is on hold as Lionsgate negotiates with Netflix for a Season 2 renewal, which requires the series to become a Netflix original with global rights. Despite its success in the U.S. and some international markets, the process of reworking distribution deals is ongoing, but a renewal is expected soon.
CBS has renewed the series "Tracker," starring Justin Hartley, for a second season after its strong ratings performance, making it the first freshman scripted series to land a Season 2 renewal this season. The show, which premiered after the Super Bowl, has garnered high viewership, ranking as the most watched new series since "Young Sheldon" in 2017/18 and the most watched new drama since "Empire" in 2014/15. CBS Entertainment president Amy Reisenbach expressed gratitude for the positive audience response and praised the show's cast, writing, and producing teams. "Tracker" is based on the bestselling novel "The Never Game" by Jeffery Deaver and follows the character Colter Shaw, played by Hartley, as he uses his tracking skills to solve mysteries while dealing with his own family issues.
