R-L: Jennifer Carpenter and Jake McDorman

CBS certainly knows when it has a hit on its hands. Such is the case with Limitless, which has received a full 22-episode order as the second most-watched new show of the season, according to Nielsen. I fully agree as Limitless, which stars Jake McDorman, Jennifer Carpenter, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, and Hill Harper, is high on my list of must-see TV.

Below is CBS’ official press release.
