The Equalizer” starring Queen Latifah was canceled by CBS just two days before the Season 5 finale aired Sunday night. The episode — which saw street vigilante Robyn McCall (Latifah) get engaged to her boyfriend Dante (Tory Kittles) — acted as the show’s series finale.

For Latifah, however, the show “blew past every dream we had for it,” calling its five-season run “surreal.” Latifah did not use her Instagram post to encourage fans to write their local streamer services about reviving the series.
