The Equalizer
So I’m not sure who watched it, but a remake of the Equalizer premiered after the Superbowl this year. The first time The Equalizer appeared on Television was in 1985 and starred Edward Woodard. He was a former Covert operations officer and the show ran up 1989. Just like the new series, he obtained his clients from placing an ad. However, in 1985 it was in the Newspaper.
Denzel Washington made the first film, The Equalizer and it came out in 2014 and it was based on an American Vigilante. He was a Former Marine and worked for the Defense Intelligence Agency. Now the name of the Equalizer in both the first series and the movie was Robert Mc Call.
Both were excellent shows and I love it when the underdog wins in these shows with the help of a “Ghost” so to speak.
The new series stars Queen Latifah and she is excellent in the show. I believe she is ex-CIA and Chris Noth from “Law and Order Series” plays her ex-boss and is trying to get her to work for him. But she says she can do more good on her own. Her name in this series is Robyn McCall and she is every bit as good as the guys and she has a family in it which makes it a little unique as I don’t remember the guys having a family.
Queen Latifah has some catchy come backs when she is scoping out the criminals and working with her peeps. One, who is a hacker who McCall helped avoid a life sentence for hacking the police department. However, he married the other peep who has a special skill as a sniper. And says he traded one life sentence for another. Robyn McCall gets her clients the same as the men who played this part; however, she has an ad on the Internet.
It is an awesome show and I highly recommend it.
Check it out! I can’t wait for the next episode.
