TORONTO, May 31, 2023 /CNW/ - Bell Media announced today that it has landed new highly-anticipated series set to join CTV and its Specialty Channels as part of the 2023/24 season.

Coming to CTV are:

• TRACKER, based on the bestselling novel The Never Game by Jeffery Deaver, and starring Justin Hartley (THIS IS US) as lone-wolf survivalist Colter Shaw, who roams the country as a "reward seeker," using his expert tracking skills to help private citizens and law enforcement solve mysteries while contending with his own fractured family.
