A reimagining of the classic series, The Equalizer centers on an enigmatic woman with a mysterious background who uses her extensive skills to help those with nowhere else to turn.
Ya, I watched the first 4, then stopped. Too procedural. I don't care what happens to anyone. Meh.

Dropped my score to 6/10 and won't continue watching after 1x7. Just too much victim drama for my taste. And the show lacks depth.
I'm struggling too. I'll probably watch the rest of the season and then drop it. Another show with an agenda.
I wouldn't even call it an agenda... It just felt more and more like they tailored the show for a target audience that doesn't include me. It doesn't even annoy me, there are other shows to watch. :)

Just marathoned The Equalizer. 2 Thumbs up. I like it. I don't mind everyone's complaints because I love love love sweet vigilante justice, so this show speaks to my feelies, taking the law into my own hands. :D Procedurals are predictable and follow a formula which can get boring, but so long as the vigilantism is sweet sweet vengeance on those who deserve it, I'll probably keep watching. :D
The first and only thing I keep saying during all the episodes, is how has this not caught up with her? How has someone not found her suburban house and killed her and her family in their sleep by now, when she's so easy to find? Other than the CIA possibly monitoring and protecting her, how has her criminal life not already caught up to her? Wouldn't you have to hide and stay on the move to not get found by so many evil third parties with a vested interest in remaining evil? She's not like Babayaga instilling fear into the hearts of criminals, she has an ad for crying out loud! :D Huge Plot Hole for me, but whatever, it's fun.
My score is a very watchable 7/10. The detective work and stories are richer and fuller than Debris, at least so far.

I tried Lovecraft Country, it was awful. Didn't like it at all.
The premise of Into The Night sounds really bad, I didn't even start that one.
Are you seeing what I'm seeing? Doesn't it say "average" instead of "really bad"?
Technically yes, but anything less than about 7.5 is a no for me.
I will watch Movies that are very low - but only to see how bad they really are :)
Ah... :) Then you will miss the joy of watching https://next-episode.net/lovecraft-country and https://next-episode.net/into-the-night - the only 2 shows I recommend in my forum signature that are below 7.5 :cool:
