With Jensen Ackles being Tracker’s first season’s exciting guest star in the upcoming episodes, the casting news isn’t over yet. The show’s final episodes of the season seemingly claim for a significant expansion of the narrative bringing in more and more new characters that would somehow enrich Colter Shaw’s storyline.
Now that leading actor Justin Hartley has confirmed it himself, another addition is making its way to Tracker — the thing here is that she’s not new to sharing the screen with Hartley.
In one of his recent interviews the actor revealed that season 1’s finale will also feature Jennifer Morrison “coming on to play a key role”. Those who enjoyed Hartley’s drama show This Is Us back then will instantly grasp the idea of who the actor is going to reunite with quite soon.

You end up making everybody around you every bit as miserable,” she shared. “I have always felt from my earliest youth that I had the choice...

Charles Addams' very first Addams Family comic strip -- or at least a proto-version of the Family -- appeared in the pages of the New Yorker in 1938. In the strip, a vampire-like woman stands next to a large, bearded, brutish man at the foot of a staircase in a haunted mansion. Bats fly overhead and spider webs adorn the light fixtures. A creepy third member of the family peers down through a railing high above. Standing at the door is an eager, white-suited vacuum cleaner salesman attempting to hawk his wares. "Vibrationless, noiseless, and a great time and back saver. No well-appointed home should be without it," the salesman says. He is unperturbed to be in a haunted house, and presses on with his sales pitch, even though the manse has clearly never been swept.
Charles Addams would revisit these creepy characters regularly, eventually settling on a core cast of characters.

If you want a few solid examples of beautifully written friendships, look no further than Abbott Elementary.
Abbott Elementary Season 3 Episode 5 took us inside the friendships of several staff members as they navigated off-campus issues.
We got to see more character development from our favorite misfits, too.
In earlier seasons, we've been given the impression that some of the Abbott teachers tolerated each other only when they had to.
But lately, we've seen evidence that quite a few of these relationships go deeper than the average coworking acquaintances.
"Breakup" started off strong with the best cold open of the season.
A new substitute teacher enters the building and runs screaming out the doors within seconds of arriving, leaving even our most pessimistic veteran teachers shocked.
Barbara, Melissa, and Gregory had been taking bets on how long the new teacher would last, but none of them predicted that he wouldn't even last to the first bell.

Overwatch 2’s Season 9 update has brought with it some critical upgrades, but not everything is going smoothly for the hero shooter. It appears the update has also changed the size of the projectiles leading many players and streamers to make public callouts about the bad implementation of the update.
Season 9 began on February 13, 2024, and Blizzard had promised some beefy updates to the characters and game overall. Unfortunately, the studio may have taken things a smidge too far and now players are getting kills without even aiming at their target!

Overwatch 2 hasn’t had the smoothest journey so far. From its pre-launch promises to the game’s current state, the community has rolled its eyes over the many changes that have taken place. Overwatch 2 Season 9 majorly held a vision around fixing the game’s competitive state, but it seems like players are already starting to find flaws in the update.
Recently, a player noticed how hitboxes in the game weren’t making sense. Instead of landing a direct headshot, the opponent seems to be taking normal body damage instead, almost changing how headshots make a difference in gameplay.
Overwatch 2 Season 9 Seems to Be Pandering to Casual Players More Pro players may not feel as good landing headshots anymore.
In a clip that feels awfully wrong at first, user kayjii on Twitter showcases what exactly happens when you try to hit an opponent with Genji’s shurikens. The clip shows them...

Small towns hide secrets. They’re typically really good at it too because the smaller the town it seems the darker the secret they are trying to hide. If you grew up in a tiny Midwest town like I did you would know this to be gospel. Southern noir or Southern Gothic is a special sort of genre that when done right shines a sinister light on those secrets. Add some good old good vs evil to the mix and the supernatural and you’ve got something special. In the case of todays series you had the best of all of these mixed into a twisted, beautiful, epic masterpiece that came happened to be co-launched by a master of horror named Sam Raimi and a gent more known for solving mysteries than writing them… a Hardy Boy himself Shaun Cassidy.

Following up on their excellent Blood Money box set from last year, the folks at Arrow Video now offer the four-film collection Savage Guns, another deep dive into the vaults of the Italian western. With each of these releases, Arrow gives viewers the opportunity to form a richer and broader notion of the genre, to examine the way these films work the warp and weft of similarity and difference, providing audiences with expected payoffs of sex and violence while also playing variations (subtle or otherwise) on familiar generic themes.
Featuring sparkling new restorations based on original film elements, Savage Guns comes in another lavishly appointed package from Arrow Video, complete with hours of bonus materials, like cast and crew interviews, commentary tracks, introductions to each of the films by critic Fabio Melelli, and appreciations of two of the film scores by audiophile Lovely Jon.

Warning: contains major finale spoilers for The Tourist season two.
In The Tourist season one, Jamie Dornan played Elliot Stanley, an amnesia sufferer who pieced together unsavoury details about his life before he lost his memory in a road collision. Elliot had been the accountant of an international drug baron named Kostas, from whom he’d stolen $1 million in cash in collusion with Kostas’ con-artist fiancée ‘Victoria’. He’d forced vulnerable addicts including a Russian woman named Lena Pascal to become drug mules, resulting in the deaths of two of Lena’s friends. Elliot had also fallen for Australian traffic cop Helen Chambers, whose forgiveness of his past misdeeds gave him enough hope that he chose not to take his own life in the season’s final moments.
By the end of The Tourist season two, everything had changed. Jamie Dornan was now playing Eugene Cassidy, part of one side...

There are no Black characters in Branden Jacobs-Jenkins’ caustic family drama Appropriate, but they nevertheless haunt the play. They are the unmarked graves scattered over the grounds of the former plantation home in southeast Arkansas, where the story’s action takes place. They are the spirits, felt like a shiver by guests in the home. And they are the objects collected — hoarded, really — over decades by the estate’s patriarch.
He’s dead now, and Appropriate, which opened Monday at Second Stage’s Hayes Theater in New York, concerns the blistering reunion of his heirs. The production is the first of Jacobs-Jenkins’ original works to be on Broadway and is staged by Lila Neugebauer (Causeway), who directed the dramatist’s Everybody at Signature Theater in 2017.
Appropriate begins with the shrill whine of cicadas. As that noise quiets, others intensify: the sounds of bodies shuffling in the bushes and the grunts of physical exertion.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had a lot to say about certain members of the royal family after they stepped down from their roles as working royals in 2020 and moved to California.
The first time the Duke and Duchess of Sussex appeared back in the U.K. together following their departure was for Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations in 2022. Because no one was sure what kind of reception they would get from Harry’s relatives, all eyes were on them when they attended the service of thanksgiving for the queen. Prince William and his wife, the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton], weren’t seated anywhere near the Sussexes but cameras caught Meghan and Kate’s reactions when they saw one another. Here’s more on that, plus what a lip reader noticed the princess saying to William after the service concluded.
