The Equalizer was an American action-adventure television series that aired on the CBS Network between 1985 and 1989. It now airs on DirectTV channel 308 and Dish Network channel 198: Sleuth as part of the regular daily line-up.

The series starred British actor Edward Woodward as Robert McCall, a former secret agent who tries to atone for past sins by offering, free of charge, his services as a troubleshooter (often literally), a protector, and an investigator. People in need found him through a newspaper ad: "Got a problem? Odds against you? Call the Equalizer." In the pilot episode (as he "opens for business"), we discover that the nickname "Equalizer" was bestowed on him by another operative, played by comedian Jerry Stiller.

Aided by a group of sometimes-mysterious contacts (some of whom date back to his spying days), McCall traverses the streets of New York City, bringing justice to hoodlums, racists, murderers, kidnappers, drug dealers and other truly deserving individuals. His contacts are also prone to human foibles, ranging from egotism to domestic problems.
