The pilot episode was AMAZINGLY good. Really liked last week's episode as well, but they'll need to stop with the "I'm going to take your kid" angle of the social worker as she keeps losing him faster than his dad...that and his running away each week will get old fast (but it is only two episodes in, so who knows if that is even the plan).

Anyway, GREAT show so far!

This is the same one with Sutherland? Didn't the pilot air months ago?

Yep, that is correct. I don't know why they did it that way (Honestly, who knows with Fox) but they at least did say after the pilot that it was coming in March. We had been eagerly awaiting its return.

Did you see the pilot?

Just watched the pilot and first episode. I really liked the pilot a lot. The plot device of communicating with numbers is a good one, i think. The first episode was good also but the ending was just a bit too maudlin/sentimental... imo.

If I knew how to do spoilers I would identify the parts that I thought were just a tad overdone.

Overall it's an interesting show and I'll definitely keep watching..

... oh, an afterthought... didn't Jack Bauer say 'I promise' about 20 times per episode of 24? it's not that bad here but he never kept his promises there so we'll see if he does in Touch. He also says 'son of a bitch' in the same raspy whisper too...lady cast as social worker doesn't look like any social worker I know..they're under paid/overworked and can't afford the nice pants suits... nit picky I know.

You start the spoiler part of your post with the word "spoiler" inside of brackets "[....]" and then you end your post with "/spoiler" inside of brackets. If you quote this message you'll see what I mean.

This show seems to be going downhill.

I really liked the first two episodes. It was kind of cool to figure out the puzzles and how the connections related.

Kind of annoying now. I'm actually rooting for the cute non-talking kid to get hit by a bus or something. Won't make a second season unless the formula gets better.
