The Equalizer

The show spends too much time on personal lives between characters instead of cases. Talk, talk, talk. If a show has Med, PD, Fire, or Law in the title I want to see stories about Med, Fire, PD, and Law all with content related to those titles. The Equalizer falls into the category of too little Equalizing and not enough kick butt storie lines..... it needs to come up with unique plots and how she solves them, but that takes good writing and imagination, which is missing in this series. As noted by others, Queen Latifah is miscast here, I personally love her comedies but this show is a stretch.

By comparison, the Denzel Washington movies bring a nice mix between the personal issues that cause the initial crisis, and how they are Equalized. Cause and effect are balanced.
