Equalizer is not listed on any Channel this week in Regional Victoria! Nine has Mega zoo and Emergency on Thursday night. Gem has Nrl and Go has a movie.
Nine has aired all the episodes from US. Looking at US schedule it is quite haphazard, maybe due to COVID production.
Oddly enough my pvr tv guide says Toronga whos who in the zoo, obviously getting their zoo programs mixed up
I’m gathering there’ll be at least a three week break between eps of The Equaliser – ep 4 screens here tomorrow night while ep 5 won’t be seen in the USA until March 28. Unless Nine’s done a deal where we get to see that ep – “The Milk Run” – before American viewers.
Nine was loud to trumpet “more than 20 million viewers watched the first episode”. What they didn’t mention was only 8.20 million returned for the second episode and viewer numbers have continued to drop.
After three eps, we’re starting to lose interest as well.
Nine will not air it before the US. Nine always intenteded to air the pilot behind MAFS and move it to Gem/Now once the ARL started. Poor ratings just mean it been moved from the 8:30pm it was listed on Monday to 9:30pm.
There has been a lot of critism of the show and there are problems with the writing and direction as it tries to cram everything in jumping around between a barely servicable main plot about the victim, and subplots with Robin’s family, side kicks, and intelligence work, and a detective who is intersted in her activities. Of course we have seen it all before in the orignal Equalizer, Person of Interest and Taken. Adam Goldberg is playing a much more boring version of his super-hacker from Taken, who seems to hate his over-optimistic, over-happy and superflous wife as much as I do.
