This season, there are several new TV shows that are based on feature films. Historically, most have done poorly in the ratings and have been cancelled after one season. Will Limitless be one of the lucky ones and be renewed for a second season by CBS? Stay tuned.
On Limitless, deadbeat Brian Finch (Jake McDorman) is given the NZT-48 drug and it unlocks 100% of his brain. Brian has complete recall of whatever he’s learned at any point in his life, either consciously or subconsciously. The FBI want to use him to help solve crimes but they’re not the only ones interested in Brian and the drug. The rest of the cast includes Jennifer Carpenter, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Hill Harper, and Colin Salmon.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
10/23 update: CBS has given this series a full season order.
4/27 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated charts, please try reloading the page. You can also see them here.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Limitless TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Please keep this series coming,
I love it sooooooo much!
Love this series sooooo much, please keep it coming!
Just finished the mid season premier and I can honestly say they did a really good job refocusing on the central conflict of the show. I think if we can get more episodes like this it has the potential to go for several more seasons.
Awesome show… Watched back to back on Demand… Will be tuned in waiting for season 2.. Thank you CBS
Has anyone else noticed the mohawk doll head that appears in each episode?
Also… Brian “Sinclair”?
…I believe you mean Brian ☆Finch☆
Brian Sinclair is a British futbol/soccer player
Thanks for the note. CBS’ press materials previously called him Brian Sinclair. If you do a Google search you’ll find many mentions of it.
DEFINITELY needs to be renewed for another season.
I have to say though, I am extremely disappointed with the title for S01E11 (airing tomorrow 01/05/16)…. talk about a serious f***in’ spoiler….
I really hope the title is just a ruse…
This show is genius! Please don’t cancel!
great show , i lloovvveee it , please don’t cancel
The show is awesome, the characters all mesh well, and love how its not completely serious all the time, the comedy thats thrown in lightens it up a bit. Keep the Season’s coming please.
Great show don’t cancel
the show is great, and i love all of the characters. i thought ep. 11 brought some much needed depth. however i think brians ability should be reigned in a tad, being able to instantly solve every little problem makes the rest of the cast seem like window dressing. he might as well be a private detective rather than a fbi resource. its like watching sherlock holmes on steroids. on the other hand the shows comedy moments and the general chemistry of the show is enchanting and mesmerizing. if there is a second season it would be great to see… Read more »
