Limitless
A young man who gains the ability to use the full extent of his brain's capabilities is hired by the FBI as a consultant.
In the vast landscape of television dramas, one show stands out for its unique premise and compelling storytelling - 'The Rookie'. Set against the backdrop of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), this American police procedural crime drama spins an engaging tale around John Nolan, a man in his forties who chooses to embark on a new career as a police officer. After a life-altering incident, he becomes LAPD's oldest rookie and has to navigate skepticism from higher-ups who perceive him as just another midlife crisis.
'The Rookie' isn't just about solving crimes; it’s about resilience, personal growth and humor amidst adversity. It offers viewers an immersive experience by focusing not only on the professional challenges that come with being a cop but also on how these challenges seep into the characters' personal lives. The protagonist's determination and sense of humor provide him an edge over his fellow rookies who are much younger and less experienced in life.
The series boasts an impressive ensemble cast led by Nathan Fillion as John Nolan. Fillion delivers a strong performance as the likable but flawed hero, making viewers root for him throughout his journey. Other noteworthy performances include Melissa O'Neil as Lucy Chen, Eric Winter as Tim Bradford, Alyssa Diaz as Angela Lopez among others. Each character adds depth to the storyline with their unique personalities and individual struggles.

I really liked this. It was a shame it was cancelled. Something a bit different.
