Jake never speaks, but his obsession with numbers appears to enable him to predict the future, and he finds a way to communicate with his father through numerical patterns that are often linked to chains of events involving random connections between people around the world. Martin gets help from social worker Clea Hopkins (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) and an educator (Danny Glover) who studies gifted individuals, but their work also attracts the attention of Aster Corporation, a shadowy business empire that takes a special interest in the abilities of Jake and others like him.

Sep 14, 2017 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review… John Griffiths Us Weekly Top Critic Its spirit is willing, but the construction has foundation problems. Mar 22, 2012 | Rating: C+ | Full Review… Ed Bark Uncle Barky Top Critic Playing around with fractals, chaos theory and more, the tone and concept are appealing - and more rooted in drama than science fiction. Mar 22, 2012 | Full Review… Joanne Ostrow Denver Post Top Critic There is a sense of adventure and uplift in Touch that is rare in current procedurals. Mar 22, 2012 | Full Review… Sarah Rodman Boston Globe Top Critic One of the best pilots of the 2011-12 season to date. Mar 22, 2012 | Rating: A- | Full Review… Verne Gay Newsday Top Critic From a purely workmanship point of view, Touch lacks the depth and assurance the best shows in the big-picture mystery genre (like Lost and, for that matter, the early seasons of 24) boast. Jun 22, 2018 | Full Review… Megan Basham WORLD "Pilot" on its own is an entertaining hour of television, regardless of whether or not the show can continually compete. Mar 22, 2012 | Rating: 8.3/10 | Full Review… Ross Bonaime Paste Magazine For all its numbers wizardry, the overmanipulative Touch doesn't yet add up. Mar 22, 2012 | Full Review… Ellen Gray Philadelphia Daily News Touch feels like yet another series that seemed like a better idea for a one-shot movie than a weekly TV series. Mar 22, 2012 | Full Review… Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Sutherland is decent, but it all gets repetitive quickly.
