Wiki.
The Equalizer is an American spy thriller television series, originally airing on CBS from September 18, 1985, to August 24, 1989; which was co-created by Michael Sloan and Richard Lindheim. It starred Edward Woodward as Robert McCall, a retired intelligence agent with a mysterious past, who uses the skills from his former career to exact justice on behalf of innocent people who find themselves in dangerous circumstances, while sometimes also dealing with people from his past in covert operations who want to pull him back in or settle old scores.
The concept has inspired two further works, including a film trilogy (2014, 2018 and 2023) starring Denzel Washington, and a re-imagined 2021 TV series starring Queen Latifah as Robyn McCall.
