498: On The Scent Of Tracker

Extra Hot Great: This Week In TV

This year, Super Bowl home CBS gambled its coveted post-game time slot on a brand-new action drama called Tracker; David J. Roth joins us for a conversation on, among other things, how it stacks up to the similarly-named Reacher. Around The Dial takes us through The Amazing Race, This Fool, Kings From Queens, and Griselda. Tara pitches the Primo episode "The Game Champ" for induction into The Canon. Then, after naming the week's Winner and Loser, it's on to a Game Time located next to either a wormhole or a dolphin tank. Hop in your RV and join us!
