Touch {FOX} #1: An emotional and heartfelt drama that touches your heart.



Blending science, spirituality and emotion, the series will follow seemingly unrelated people all over the world whose lives affect each other in ways seen and unseen, known and unknown. At the story’s center is MARTIN BOHM (Kiefer Sutherland), a widower and single father, haunted by an inability to connect to his emotionally challenged 11-year-old son, JAKE (David Mazouz). Caring, intelligent and thoughtful, Martin has tried everything to reach his son. But Jake never speaks, shows little emotion, and never allows himself to be touched by anyone, including Martin. Jake is obsessed with numbers—writing long strings of them in his ever-present notebooks—and with discarded cell phones.

Social worker CLEA HOPKINS (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) believes that Jake’s needs are too serious for Martin to handle. She sees a man whose life has become dominated by a child he can no longer control. She believes that it’s time for the state to intervene. So Jake is placed in foster care, despite Martin’s desperate objections.

But everything changes after Martin meets ARTHUR TELLER (Danny Glover), a professor and an expert on children who possess special gifts when it comes to numbers. Martin learns that Jake possesses an extraordinary gift—the ability to perceive the seemingly hidden patterns that connect every life on the planet. While Martin wants nothing more than to communicate directly with his son, Jake connects to his father through numbers, not words. Martin realizes that it’s his job to decipher these numbers and recognize their meaning. As he puts the pieces together, he will help people across the world connect as their lives intersect according to the patterns Jake has foreseen.

Martin’s quest to connect with his son will shape humanity’s destiny.

I watched it, and wow.. I think I even cried a few times. It is quite emotional. But I loved it.

I'm definitely watching more of this.

I saw the episode last night and loved it. It was so emotionally draining but also a very interesting Pilot and I think i'm going to continue watching it seems to be a good show.

I think they will too.

Thank you for starting the thread Jen!

It's a show I'm going to definitely watch more episodes of. I enjoyed the pilot and I agree I got emotional quiet a few times.


I agree Judith. The first season of "Heroes" was amazing, but after that...yeah I worry about his involvement too.

Yep.

Hopefully that won't hurt the show.

For some reason I liked season one of Heroes but never was THAT into the show as some where.

I do wonder how they are going to follow up from the Pilot and I also agree that they should keep going with the people in the Pilot cause those few people are interesting especially the counselor.

Nope. They just did a preview viewing of the episode kind like what they did with Glee.
