An average 28-year-old man who gains the ability to use the full extent of his brain's capabilities is hired by the FBI as a consultant.
I remember the movie was a bit irritating. But a series is different. It's potentially interesting to see a high functioning brain as a super power. The premise does have quite a lot of stories that can spring from this idea for future episodes.
Jake McDorman is pleasant enough to watch as an everyday Joe stumbling upon unique gifts. Jennifer Carpenter has an interesting face though she is highly improbable as a romantic interest. Bradley Cooper does add a bit of gravitas to the show being all A list now.
The pilot at least has some well done on location NYC filming. So production values look quite high.
Worth giving it a chance to develop and see how it goes.
