Forget ‘Tracker,’ Disney+’s Forgotten 13-Episode Crime Series Is a Perfect Weekend Binge
*The Finder* is a crime procedural that follows Walter Sherman, a former soldier whose brain injury left him with an unusual ability to find missing people and objects. The article presents the 2012 series as a potential weekend binge for viewers who enjoy *Tracker*’s case-of-the-week format, while noting it never matched the success of its parent show, *Bones*.
Walter works with Leo Knox, a former lawyer who runs a bar, and Willa Monday, a rebellious teenager who becomes his assistant. The series was moved to Friday nights and aired out of order after being planned for Thursdays; its mid-season launch also put it at a disadvantage against established shows. It lasted 13 episodes before cancellation, though audience reviews were warmer than critics’ responses, with an 82% Rotten Tomatoes audience score.
In short
- *The Finder* offers a case-of-the-week crime story.
- It ran for 13 episodes in 2012.
- Audience reception was stronger than its ratings success.
