Limitless starts off pretty slow. The first episode is very basic and feels stretched too long. The science in it is so simple that even the average viewer might find it hard to sit through it. The subsequent episodes are much much better and the challenges are fun to watch.
The show speeds up from the second episode and the science becomes deeper and more interesting to watch and follow.
The last episode is probably the most important one. It's slow, but in a good way this time. Certain parts even brought tears to my eyes by just thinking about the things shown for my own life. The finale gives the show a very strong ending.
The stories about different people and tribes in each episode give the show a different feel which I loved.
Some of the acting feels very forced at times and so do the dialogues. I think it's because the team has tried to make it feel like a movie. The close-up face cam with the experts also feel odd.
Chris is fun to watch as always. Ross and Peter as experts made the show very interesting. Overall, the show is great and will definitely make you rethink your daily routine, diet, exercise and other habits.
Limitless should be used as motivation for all viewers to make changes in our lives to ensure that we grow old healthy.

The series was tailored for Hemsworth measurements, as he is an athlete by nature so he was able to perform the required activities.
So it is fun to watch him training and struggling and joking about it, but in terms of quality content, for me there were no revelations, anyone who is interested in the sciense of aging and watches related youtube channels already knows the basics that are presented in the episodes. It's devestatiing still, to see that we have some tools we can use to slow aging and the deterioration of the bodt, and mainly prevent hard deseases such as cancer and brain function in old age but still it's clear, even in Limitness, that nothing really stops aging. All the old peaple shown in these episodes looks old, they may be in better shape and more vital then many others and without deases but they look at there age and not younger meaning that the aging process does not stop, yet the body is still able to function better and the person does not suffer from illness which is common in old age. I think that in 20 years when people will watch this it will still be relevant. Fasting, wordout, stress management, exposure to heat and cold, we know it's healthy and beneficial, but still, non of it will add many years to your life (it may add some, but the chances to pass 100 is very low no matter what you do, the human body geneticlly is programed to last for a limited time which can be extended a bit, but not much more). A reminder is that the oldest people on earth where not athletes, did not fast, did not expose themselfs to very hot or cold temp, and did nothing except being active and not eating too much. The bottom line is that today we can do things that will allow us to live and still be active till our 90s maybe, to avoid dying prematurely from cancer or heart deases, so extending the time we have without the suffereing of illness, and add some quaility years to our lives, but at the end aging can't be stoppes with any of these tools. A new technology and can impact DNA is required and it will take many years to find it.

Most inspiring series I have watched ever I think. I hope everyone takes the time to watch it on Disney plus. Really makes you think and appreciate life and the memories. And it really motivated me to exercise more, fast longer and live life love life. Thanks Chris you are truly a great human I hope you and Elsa live very long healthy lives with your family. Your heart your strength your endurance your love for family and friends was so genuine and inspiring. I truly believe this experience will definitely make your life and others that watch it lives Much longer much calmer much happier and definitely more appreciative of every moment they have here in this earth. I don't have much family and I hope I find the love you have in your life because with love you can truly endure anything in this life and into the next. Cheers. Kandis in Texas.
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.
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.
