Not sure if I like it yet, but is showing some promise.
Anyone else check it out?
Kind of reminds me of a good thought inspiring trip except more like speed referring the the drug in the show.

You know it's based on a movie right?
I'm actually watching it now. So far I think I like the show better than the movie.

Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream.

I didn't know that but now that you mention it that seems like a story line I know of, can't remeber what from but yea.
Thought the show was decent, but not sure about longevity, it feels like it is already getting too many loose ends and illogical stuff going down.

It's by the same name, it starred Bradley Cooper. It even kinda starts off the same. Meet old friend when he's down on his luck, friend gives him miracle pill, he takes it finds out how incredible it is, goes back to get more, friend ends up dead, he takes the pills. Cops even tag him as the suspect in the friend's murder, although he clears himself pretty quickly. I'm only about 20 minutes in so far so I dunno how much longer it's going to hold to the same general story line.
I'm not sure why they decided to make a show out of it, but I'll give it a shot.

it was on at 10pm est, great show, first ep. it's like a few months- a year or 2 after the end of the movie. which is to say the show is a continuation of the movie.
the main dude from the movie is in the show as the same guy he was at the end of the movie.
9/10 would recommend

Been watching every new episode as soon as I could. I had my doubts about how this could really work as a show, but they've managed to do it. One of the currently airing shows I look forward to the most. Which sucks. Because almost every time that happens, it gets canceled way too soon (often not even making it to a second season, those that do, do not generally ever go beyond season 3).
Anyone who hasn't watched it, highly suggest you do.
As a side note, it probably has one of the best opening credits for those into psychedelics.

IMO caffiene and theanine is much better. The first month of piracetam was awesome, but for some strange reason it stops working

so much this. Also, Turmeric and possibly S-Adenosyl-Methionine. Ampakines haven't been researched enough. Don't turn yourself into a lab rat.

And some flaxseed omega 3's have been working surprisingly well. Clean diet, sleep etc. But this guy has got it^
