We LOVE this show. Queen Latifah is outstanding. The energy and sparks between Robyn and Det. Dante are scintillating! This is the type of content we need MUCH more of. There is no reason to keep recycling the same old tired actors, The Queen gives CBS is much needed shot in the arm!

Great show, I just wish they would create a deeper storyline where the CIA or an off-book rogue element nefariously gets "Queen Latifa, aka The Equalizer" under their thumb, to force her to go on Black Ops for them, etc.. etc... Spice it up a little bit, get her pissed off!
