I wished it had found more fans and stayed on. It was good.
This was good!
First of all, HE'S THE DEVIL, why would he want to solve crimes for a living? They portrayed him as caring about the first victim and wanting to get involved, but it's hard to believe the devil would care about anyone and want to solve their murder.
There is a scene where supergirl has to ask PERMISSION to save some one. Why would supergirl need to ask anyone's permission to do anything? That is sexist. They wouldn't have superboy going around asking permission to do things. Can I fly? Can I save this person? What should I wear with my cape?
Seeing people be murdered, and watching, and thinking about it all day sounds awful. That is the feeling I had while watching this first episode. It was just a concept that was not interesting to me. There is nothing positive here except the fun quality to the special effects. I want the show to be about something fun in the future not people being killed all day.
The show has changed, so I changed my review..
They are trying really hard NOT to make this show predictable in anyway. That by accident has kept me watching, because I really have no clue at all where the show is going, or if I will like where it ends up.
He takes a pill that makes him smart, and works with the FBI. That seems to be the only thing that is constant, but this show seems flexible enough to even change that. Maybe the title being limitless means they could do anything at any time.
In the first few episodes it started out like he was just going to solve cases and fall in love with his FBI partner. That seemed a bit boring, but they didn't go there at all. (Yet.)
Before, his life was in danger and his loved one's would die if he didn't do what the bad guys wanted, but now there are no bad guys. Or maybe the bad guy are just pretending to be nice, we don't know.
The "cases" or reasons he needs the smart pills aren't even the same all the time. Nothing seems to repeat.
Each week it is a new adventure. But, of what kind you just don't know.
I like the show and think the episodes and lead character are fun. I am still not giving it a bunch of stars, but I think by the end of the season when I can look back at what happened I may increase the rating. I am glad the show is not getting cancelled before a full season.
This show is stupid.
Why does the main character NOT know how to mind his own business? Why does he feel its job to hack into the computer accounts of everyone he knows in order to "protect" them? The first episode spent a whole hour not telling any kind of story or having a point. And it just stops at the end with no resolution.
Apparently the rebels in this show think that the world would be better if no would paid back their debts and that a corporation that owns all the credit card companies is evil just because they exist. I suppose it would be nice if everyone's debts were erased, but if after that people could never get credit again because banks found it too risky to lend money or give people credit, how does that make the world better?
Also he goes around snooping on random strangers and then confronting them about the bad things that they have done, and no one just grabs him and beats him to death right then and there....
The fact that the 1st episode ends with no resolution is the only reason I will look at the second episode. I can't imagine I'm going to like it but I've wasted so much time already I want to see the end I guess...
It's a tv show, that's it. It doesn't need to be called pennyworth. It's not even trying to relate to batman in anyway. Why would such an active man decide to be a butler? That makes Alfred the butler seem stupid. I'll just go over here and butter some bread. My life is over, all I can do it make toast. It's like what did your parents do before you were born, and do you really care?
When they put out all the episodes at once, they don't (have to) explain things right away, because they feel people will keep watching.
It starts with someone in a space suit, who perhaps lives on the moon? There is a talking monkey!? It was almost an hour of waiting for explanations that never came.
The monkey did say, the dead man made him what he is today, but that was barely useful.
I guess I didn't understand why a man was trying to build a rocket instead of the government. This show was hard to understand. His next door neighbor was in some kind of strange cult like group. He watches their ritual through the window and draws attention to himself and they come out to get him and he runs. The rocket making and the cult stuff does not go together.
