Okay, first off, I am not giving this a glowing recommendation. I am also not going to pretend that Queen Latifah was the correct person to step into the role originated by Edward Woodward and continued by Denzel Washington. But it wasn't as bad as it looked in the commercials.
The show mixes some of the traits of the two Robert McCalls. Right away, you see Robyn McCall exhibit some of the traits of Denzel's character in her fighting. But you also get to see further in the episode, some of the chess playing that made Woodward's McCall so brilliant and iconic.
It wasn't great. But it was good enough for me to watch the next episode and see how it goes.
