Limitless

How this didn't get renewed for a second season is baffling. There wasn't one episode I didn't like. The main character, Brian, is just great, as are the rest of the actors. It has just the right amount off comedy mixed with some pretty dark stuff too, plus really cool visual effects thrown in. Some shows seem to plod along, episode to episode, without much else really going on, but this isn't one of those shows. lots of really clever stuff and 'how the hell is he going to get out of this one' type scenarios, without it being over the top. I've watched it twice and I'm STILL annoyed it ended!

I binge watched this awesome series, and I want season 2 now :) Its an amazing, fun-filled series with a non nonsense approach mixing comedy and thrill together so effortlessly. Loved Brian, Rebca's character the MOST, but all characters were so well cast. PLEASE bring season 2. I am a big fan of blindspot and this on crvd its niche out in balancing thrill and comedy very well :)

In my opinion this show proves that serious topics can be approached from a funny angle. The main character, Brian, is a kind hearted highly moral person who also happens to ve extremely goofy; so when it comes to solving cases with the FBI he can be hilarious as well as effective. I loved the show and I'm sad that it didn't get a second season.

I LOVE This show. It is the freshest thing on the air along with "Spotless", which is another category entirely.

What are so many of these reviewers not seeing?

The scripts are funny, clever, beautifully implemented. The characters are truly realized. It's fun and current, light and bright.

I had my doubts as to how a series would be constructed based on the movie, which I also very much enjoyed. But I could not see how the show would stretch for episodic TV. Bringing joyful Brian in lifts the darker material. The dialogue is quick and spot on. It's apparent a great deal of effort has gone into this production, and I am grateful for it.

I have relished every single episode.

I'm not understanding the hate this show is getting. I get that the show probably didn't go where a lot of people thought it would, being a sort of continuation of the 2011 movie "Limitless" but honestly, the way people seem to think it should of gone is boring in my opinion. Every show out there seems to be full of heavy content and really dark, and this show, while still having some heavy themes, is like watching the show equivalent of a rainbow. And I love that! It's light, it's funny, it's well-cast (despite what people say about the lead, who, IMO, is the best part of the show) and it doesn't need to go in a darker, more intricate direction. I mean, also consider that as I write this, the season is only half done, and there's plenty time for more political intrigue or whatever people seem to think this show is lacking. But in my opinion it's a good show as it is now: it's refreshing. It's similar to a cop show, but it is unique because it's not about a cop, it's about a guy effectively functioning as a human Guinea pig for cops. It's a different perspective. It's about how his job, and the drug, affect his life.

It's not a Netflix show or an HBO show so don't go in expecting something like House of Cards... it's great for what it is, and that is a sometimes cheesy network show. I love this show and it's my favorite on TV right now, it makes me happy, and it's nice to watch after a long day. I don't know why people were expecting some sort of break out crime drama rated MA because if you recall the film that this show gets its premise from was mediocre at best. There's nothing wrong with this show that can't be summed up by saying that it's not your cup of tea. If you like happy, funny shows, with realistic and dimensional characters and quick-witted scripts, then you'll like this show.
