Fan-favorite TV couples like 9-1-1’s Buck and Eddie, The Bear’s Sydney and Carmy and Tracker’s Colter and Reenie — or Billie — deserve to finally get together on screen in 2026.
Based on Jeffery Deaver‘s novel The Never Game, Tracker has viewers tuning in each week to see their favorite fictional survivalist — a.k.a Colter — travel the country to help solve missing person cases, track down information on criminal cases and so much more. Colter (Justin Hartley) usually receives help from his team, which includes his attorney Reenie.
Colter and Reenie’s history isn’t limited to a professional relationship though, and she has since caught the eye of Colter’s brother too.
“Reenie loves some of that attention. Who doesn’t love a little bit of validation here and there? We’re all human,” Rene exclusively told Us Weekly in November 2024. “But I think Reenie is looking for the caliber of man who can be emotionally, physically and mentally available. [Someone] in the same state who she doesn’t have to track down every single time she wants to talk to him. I think that that’s pretty pertinent.”
At the time, Rene also weighed in on Reenie and Colter exploring a romance in the future.
“I think deep down Colter loves Reenie. I really would like to think that he has unconditional love for her,” she noted. “He really wants what’s best for Reenie and he wants to see her happy. I think Elliot at that moment is really making her happy. So I think it’s undeniable for Colter to feel that too. But does that mean that he is over it?”
Meanwhile, on The Pitt, the hit HBO Max series introduced Us to Mel (Taylor Dearden), Langdon (Patrick Ball) and the staff of a Pittsburgh hospital’s emergency department. While working a grueling 15-hour shift, Mel found a mentor in Langdon, which inspired some viewers to question whether their connection could turn into something more.
“I think that has to do with the fact that audiences have been trained by most medical dramas for love affairs more than it has to do with me and Mel,” Ball told Us in April, adding that he finds it “so funny” to learn about fans who are supporting the chemistry between his and Dearden’s characters. “I think what Langdon sees in Mel is that she’s got the right stuff. She sees the world the right way. She understands what this job is. She’s really smart and she’s really competent and she’s also a caregiver.”
He continued: “Langdon is a caregiver. He’s learning what it means to be a father and the responsibility of that, the complexity of that and the scariness of that. There’s no playbook on how to be a good dad and he’s really trying to figure that out. Then he sees somebody else who is a caregiver and can see them carrying that responsibility. I think he understands that and is drawn to that. I don’t think there’s anything romantic about it. It’s just a ‘real recognizes real’ [type of] great, positive and platonic relationship.”
