The Justin Hartley starrer/action-adventure phenomenon Tracker continues to go from strength to strength, adding eyeballs each week, remaining a force in the demos, and engendering a most loyal and vocal fanbase — and chief among those loyal and vocal fans is Y&R patriarch Eric Braeden (Victor Newman), Hartley’s long ago TV father!
Eric Braeden Boasts About Justin Hartley’s Acting Prowess
“Watched JUSTIN HARTLEY on “TRACKER” tonight! Loved the show!” enthused the actor on X. “No wonder the show is so damn successful! I couldn’t stop watching!
“Justin is a very good actor, very convincing, very strong!! [He] has what all AMERICAN STARS from JIMMY STEWART, JOHN Wayne, James ARNESS, etc, had, namely, a basic decency and integrity and strength! He simply is BELIEVABLE!”

Comment Central
As usual, viewers and devotees flocked to the comments section of Braeden’s post, and Braeden, as is common, responded to many of them in kind.
To Tricia JJones, who wrote, “Justin Hartley is also easy on the eyes, plus being a great actor!” he added: “Great athlete as well!”
When “Crimsonbee” offered, “I used to love him, can’t get over how he divorced his second wife & haven’t been able to watch him since. He was the BEST Adam.” Braeden rejoined: “That’s a personal issue ! I simply look at a performance! If one were to base one’s opinion about an actor on his personal life, who knows who we would or would not like! Same goes for EVERYONE in public life!!”
And to Eileen Peart who gushed, “Very few actors hav such raw compelling aura abt them. Like Tyrone Power in Witness for the prosecution! ( I could go on but x wouldn’t let me! Lol) Thats why [Eric Braeden] Victor Newman is so riveting 2watch. U bring such compelling scenes w such strength&fire that I can’t look away!” Braeden demurred: “That’s so nice of you to say!!”
