*Sigh* A bit late to the party with my review but I'll keep it brief. I've always liked Queen Latifah. Bringing Down The House (back in pre woke 2003) was absolutely hilarious.

Bringing Down The House (back in pre woke 2003) was absolutely hilarious. The chemistry between her and Steve Martin and Eugene Levy was spot on. This "show" is clearly not The Equalizer I remember from the 80's. The writing is just... bad. The fighting is just... bad. I'm perplexed as to the reason Hollywood is continuing to ruin classic TV shows with these trash reboots. Expand

This show is ridiculous! It is not believable that Queen Latifa is capable of the things she does on the show. Utter nonsense! And the whole "woman power" schtick is getting REALLY old. Stop trying to make women into men! Terrible casting,This show is ridiculous! It is not believable that Queen Latifa is capable of the things she does on the show. Utter nonsense!

This is a must watch for me moving forward. Most interesting new action network show in years.

I love Queen Latifah as an actor, so this role is a perfect marriage with her tough "bad ass" style character portrayal. I also love that we're seeing more women in lead roles as defenders of injustice. Not too sure about the sidekick choiceI love Queen Latifah as an actor, so this role is a perfect marriage with her tough "bad ass" style character portrayal. I also love that we're seeing more women in lead roles as defenders of injustice. Not too sure about the sidekick choice in Adam Goldberg, but as he's only a supporting role character and not seen often, I'm hoping he can bring more "life" to the part than what he's given so far. All in all, very thankful they've been given the green light on season 2! Expand

Love seeing Latifah in this role - and the rest of the cast is refreshing in a procedural and works well together. I will keep watching this show - especially if the writing continues to get better.

Whilst I do like Queen Latifa, she is very talented, I do think the casting is a poor choice for this. If one word could be used to describe this show, its Implausible. The athletics - Implausible.

If one word could be used to describe this show, its Implausible. The athletics - Implausible. The combat looks staged, and then there is all the politics I am intentionally sidestepping. I think I managed halfway through the first series before I had enough.

This is not to say a woman could not pull this off, but she would need to be lean and mean, like Vasquez from Aliens, Lashana Lynch and Grace Jones from 007, and countless other female action stars who look the part. I'm sorry but as great as Queen L is, a larger than life person pulling off those kinds of athletics and combat is just implausible, I mean I get out of breath having to run up a few flights of stairs! If you're going to peddle politics, at least make it plausible.
