TV show description:
A science fiction crime drama, this TV show follows the events of the 2011 film of the same name.
The series centers around the drug NZT-48 which unlocks 100% of the brain, giving whoever takes it complete recall of whatever they have learned — whether it be in class, a documentary, or even subconsciously. The origins of the drug are a mystery but it’s highly addictive and can have serious side-effects.
Deadbeat Brian Finch (Jake McDorman) is at a stage in his life where he realizes his ambition of becoming a rock star is not going to happen. Eddie Mora (Bradley Cooper) introduces Brian to the mysterious clear pill and it doesn’t take him long to realize its potential.
With his brain unlocked, he exhibits almost superhuman characteristics. Even Special Agent Boyle (Hill Harper), a highly skilled and highly trained professional who is at the top of his game, is unable to chase down Brian.
Aware of the drug’s existence through largely failed testing, FBI agent Rebecca Harris (Jennifer Carpenter) believes Brian’s abilities can be used as a resource and is determined to get Brian on her side.
With people willing to kill for the drug, Brian must decide where his loyalties lie.
Episode #22 — Finale: Part Two!
Following a stunning betrayal to their team, Brian and the FBI race to stop an NZT-enabled Sands (Colin Salmon) and his associates from orchestrating an international incident. Also, Brian experiences devastating side effects when his NZT immunity starts to wear off
First aired: April 26, 2016.
What do you think? Do you like the Limitless TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I am so sick of watching new shows and getting into the characters an loving the show an then have them cancel it….absolutely loved limitless!!!
BRING IT BACK PLEASE!!!!
One of the best new shows of the 2015-2016 season. So disappointed that CBS cancelled it. It was funny actually hilarious at times, heartwarming and always interesting, the show always seemed to make me want more. I really hope that another network picks it up, would love to see where season 2 takes us!! Please bring back Limitless!!
I’m so bummed about this cancellation. whatever. I hope at least another network might be able to pick it up with the same actors….
So disappointed!
I’m really disappointed it was cancelled. I just found it on Netflix and loved it. Watched it from beginning to end as quick as possible and couldn’t believe there wasn’t another season coming. Sad.
Unusual, smart, fun and funny with an “everyman turns hero” main character–and of course, cancelled. Pity…
disappointed this was my one show that I looked forward too. Hope it gets picked up elsewhere. love it.
Best show I have ever watched in my entire life. SO interesting with a really cool plot; I really want to see what happens after finale part two!!!!! Really hope it’s picked up by another network.
This was a fun show. I’d call it espionage light. It’s nice not to have the pulse pounding intensity sometimes. It should be renewed.
love the show. smart, funny. great cast. heard it might be picked up by another network. please make it happen
I really enjoyed this whole season. I can’t believe it would be cancelled! The good ones like this usually come back one way or another, say movie series??!
I confessI never watched Limitless when it was on the air. I saw it on netflix,they have a one to five star rating system.All the T.V. shows (many networks)there are only two shows that have a five star rating Limitless was one of them.I watched the 22 episodes in two days. Great show sorry to hear it was cacelled bad choice!.Would have looked forward to many more shows.Hopefully it will be picked up by someone else.
OMG I know CBS has all the good T.V. show but they let a good show fall threw the cracks….canceled, well maybe someone else will pick it up.
Damn CBS! Why do they always cancel good ones. Please bring it back. I was so looking forward for season 2.
They always cancel the good ones Wake up WHOMEVER makes these decisions
