Touch

When Touch first came to TV,most of the fans who tuned into the show was 24/Jack Bauer fans.Most of them were disappointed to see Kiefer Sutherland as a guy who is afraid of heights and say some random guy "I care for you".Anyway it held its strength in the first 3-4 episodes with story-line which eventually ended up connecting lives in touching ways.But then it got predictable.I think season 2 has come to correct those mistakes focusing more on the Amelia-Aster Corps-Jake story-line with a different tone to the show where some violence is involved.And Martin Bohm is no longer a weak guy but gets the nature of a detective who is chasing clues and the scene him with guns have thrilled 24 fans who hanged in with the show.But it is notable now that the fans who watched the season 1 for its touching moments losing the interest in the show.So the real challenge for the show to survive is not to lose the identity of the show which it originally meant to.Hopefully it well turn out to be a good show.So far its a good show to watch weekly.

This pilot has to definitely be the second best pilot ever followed after the Sherlock Pilot.Insane, I mean once the episode had passed certain events I was just in a total awe the way those certain events all got connected to one final event.A must must must watch especially to all Jack Bauer fans and really looking forward to the rest of the season and hoping that it will be as mind-blowing as the pilot. Superb acting, awesome pilot story. Looking like a thrilling ride undoubtedly. The concept is just amazing, its full of surprises. Surely a sitcom that I will be following and will insist others also to have a look at the pilot and be ready to be amazed.

being in Germany i stumble upon new series by chance. i watched the pilot and thought "wow, this could really become my new favorite drama series", the plot was unusual, the acting of the kid was great and kiefer nicely interpreted the role of a scared, overwhelmed and caring dad without being cheesy. yes - the social workers choice of words and idea of help for the kid is rather odd, but it altogether promised to be a good series. the atmosphere was mysterious enough, the dialogues, colors, pictures, plotting and scenes were well done. then finally the second episode aired. and I'm very disappointed. kiefers dialogues are stupid (he sounds way too much like ctu), the storytelling isn't nearly as good as it was in the pilot (way too easy to guess whats happening) and the social workers skills are with her looks and not with the kid. the pilot had 8,5 stars, the new episode more around 5. i hope it will get back to the intriguing start!

Touch was NOT! a disappointment, in fact it shows that there are real ideas that can blend reality and fantasy. In the days of reality TV that we are all forced to watch, this was a breath of fresh air. Secondly, the subplots are essential in helping the story to blossom. Without it there would be a break in the flow, and we would be lost. It ties itself together well. Unfortunately there are some people who couldn't understand what the writers are trying to accomplish. Understanding the cell tower idea was not complex. This apex of our technology only seems right to have his son "receive" the information through. Or from another perspective, the only place that he can concentrate with all of the world trying to say that he is handicapped instead of understanding him. There is no reason to review this show poorly. It was a cinematic masterpiece. It took elements from real life and fantasy and made a story line that is amazing and promotes acceptance of people who are different from what we see in every day life. Who wouldn't want to have discovered something so amazing inside a child who seemed "hopeless". If you didn't really enjoy this show than you have lost your sense of mystery. It shows that you would rather open a puzzle box with the puzzle already finished than to discover the picture underneath.

Martin Bohm (Kiefer Sutherland) lost his wife in the twin towers on 9-11. He used to be a newspaper journalist, but he's struggling with his life especially his autistic son Jake. Jake is a mute, but he seems to be doing something with numbers that is foretelling events that hasn't happened.

There is a high concept interesting idea, but it's a tiring show. Kiefer is ALWAYS out of breath, always chasing after the kid. It's all too repetitive. The other stories related to the main show are sometimes interesting. They don't always work and they don't really advance the main story. That's probably why that structure was eventually dropped. The second season was a feeble attempt to try to continue a failing show.
