Limitless

We need more shows like this. It was educational, entertaining, used a host I already knew, and the footage was breathtaking. There experiments that feel corny at the moment, but the stunts are a means an to an end. It is absolutely all about the content in between the stunt scenes.

Chris shows how taking oneself seriously is far more important than getting initial praise. Time and time again he leads by example while his friends/colleagues drop out of individual challenges. The show also provides tips at the end of each episode to show how you could incorporate the new life hacks into your own routine.

TV is really hit and miss these days but at least this coming out of NatGeo as it does gives you some guarantee of quality.

I found this to be really watchable.

Because Chris tells us in the beginning he has trouble coping with stress then that really contextualises this series.

He goes off and explores ways of dealing with stress in a more positive fashion and succeeds and fails as well from time to time making this a bit more human than you'd probably expect.

It's shot in very scenic parts of the world making it nice on the eye.

The show also brings in experts from around the world to inform Chris and us as to how different factors make all the difference - and possibly even prolong life - when stress is a factor.

I also noticed the soundtrack by Keefus Ciancia was really well done.

It's quality.

Life is fragile. Life is confronting. Life is fleeting. And we need to prioritise what we choose to devote our finite time to. Chris has exposed so much of his vulnerabilities in this series. Before this he seemed infallible and a man with everything at his fingertips, but thankfully for us all.. he's just like us. We are treaded to a very raw and beautiful side to Chris that I personally am grateful for seeing. To then find out post production of this series Hemsworth had decided to take some time away from work to devote to his family (I believe this was due to a rare genetic condition relating to alzheimers) it was evident that this show was a big awakening for him too.

Great mix of what all these producers put together. Documentary of science combined with big time action actor. Love the cinematography, build up of story and sound combined with the challenges and openness.

It's like watching real life training to be invincible. Chris did it all. Very impressed. I couldn't do these tests. Surprised we haven't seen other actors show their training like this. Makes a ton of sense and is quite entertaining. Love that Chris brought his pals along for the ride.

I don't want to give much away but I think this was done real well and I still have 35 characters to write...

Some episodes (naturally) interested me more then others, but there all beautifully shot, beautiful landscapes. The information bits inbetween are well done, informative, interesting and bite sized. Chris's voice over and narration is great.

Chris in this in general is funny, and brings his friends on these crazy rides. The episodes I've seen even inspired me to think about these aspects of health. Like I said the cinematography is great, and the episodes have this theme where they show a different story of someone else that compliments the main story, this really makes this fresh. One episode kind of made me feel being on a an adventure and wanting to try to embrace the cold aswell a bit more.

Would recommend giving this show a watch, even if you end up enjoying some episodes more than others.
