help Limitless FAQ
How does the Limitless series connect to the Bradley Cooper movie?
The series continues the world of the 2011 film rather than remaking it. Bradley Cooper returns periodically as Eddie Morra, who has become a powerful U.S. senator after using NZT.
Why can Brian Finch take NZT without suffering its usual side effects?
Eddie Morra secretly gives Brian an injection that suppresses NZT's dangerous aftereffects. Morra uses continued access to that treatment as leverage, leaving Brian caught between Morra's plans and his work with the FBI.
What does Brian Finch do for the FBI while he is on NZT?
Brian becomes a consultant who uses NZT-enhanced memory, pattern recognition, and problem-solving to help Agent Rebecca Harris investigate difficult cases. The FBI monitors his doses closely, although it does not initially know the full truth about his immunity.
Why was Limitless canceled after one season?
CBS ended the series after its first season, despite leaving room for Brian's story to continue. Attempts to find another network or streaming home did not produce a second season, so the television run remains a single 22-episode chapter.
