In the video above, CBS funnyman Stephen Colbert enlists the services of Tracker star Justin Hartley when his favorite Late Show coffee mug goes missing. Despite Colbert’s refusal to refer to him by name and not “Tracker,” Hartley drops what he’s doing — he was just about to watch the guys from FBI wrestle the guys from NCIS! — and leads a chaotic search through the Ed Sullivan Theater. It all culminates in a wild foot chase through the studio audience.
Along the way, Colbert channels his inner David Caruso and attempts to revive a classic CSI: Miami meme. Hartley’s not into it at first, but eventually changes his tune.
Press PLAY to see TV’s most unlikely crossover unfold — that is, until Abbott Elementary crosses over with It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia — then keep scrolling for additional intel on Tracker Season 2.
Premiering Sunday, Oct. 13 at its new time, 8/7c, Tracker Season 2 “the strange disappearance of a missing family whose car was found abandoned on the side of the road in the backwoods of Arkansas,” per the official synopsis. “Along the way, Colter makes “a shocking discovery about the mother’s past that leads him into the world of organized crime.” Reenie, meanwhile, “opens up her new law firm and enlists Velma’s help in setting up shop.”
As TVLine was first to report, Supergirl and A Million Little Things alum Floriana Lima will recur in Season 2 as Camille Picket, “Colter’s off-and-on lover for at least the past 10 years.” We’re told her “sister went missing 10 years ago and her case was never solved — which brings up some trauma for both Camille and Colter on every anniversary of her disappearance, but also causes them to reconnect, at least for an evening.”
In addition to Lima, Matt Long (Manifest) and Lindy Booth (The Librarians) guest-star in the episode, both in pivotal roles tied to the aforementioned missing family case. Enuka Okuma (Rookie Blue) and Ryan Dorsey (Sons of Anarchy) also appear.
