Touch S1E1 – Pilot
Just watched Touch, a sci-fi serial drama written and created by Tim Kring. The same guy who brought us Heroes before that show got axed. Main players for this series are, Kiefer Sutherland who plays Martin Bohm and David Mazouz as Jacob “Jake” Bohm.
Martin lost his wife during September 11 and now takes care of his son Jake who is mute, autistic and has an obsession with numbers. It has been 10 years since September 11 and Martin has been working all sorts of jobs just to make ends meet for his son. Even though his wife was well off, he had decided to give everything of his former wife to his son.
In this episode, 318 was the plot device and Martin learns that even though Jake has never spoken a word; his son has for the longest of time been communicating through numbers. Narrating the series is David Mazouz and in the narration, he explains that everything and anything is connected by the red threads of fate and no matter how much it gets tangled; those connected to it will come together.
Since the next episode will only come out on March 19th, 2012, Serge hopes that this series does not get axed. It looks good and Serge loves how Kiefer plays the role of Martin, a dad who is trying his best to understand his son and the gift that his son has.
Giving this episode 4 out of 5 stars.
