Touch

And this has what to do with the subject of this thread?   See 4 other replies

Other than the fact that we all live on the same planet and are members of the same species, we are NOT all connected to each other. The basic premise of this show is total rubbish. It's bad science fiction and fails equally as fantasy. I was hoping to see it had been cancelled to make way for something better.   See 4 other replies

A few things i see here...First, yes, they dont know if jake is autistic, but that is the assumption simply because he does not respond to commands and (not always) some autistic children have trouble responding to others for as yet still unknown reasons. Second, just because Roy Miller doesnt like this show based on the lack of realism, it does not make his opinion of its lack of realism less valued or legitimate, and it does not give others the right to go after him in forums because they want to wave their flags of "stick up for the little guy" around. Respect his opinion as just that, an opinion.Third, this show DOES have an "AWESOME" concept to it, but it also does have an awesome annoyance factor in some of the scenes where sutherland is chasing jake around. So both points are taken.Lastly, My personal opinion of this show is that it will likely run for a few more episodes before being cancelled shortly before most of the storyline makes real sense. I do not believe it will survive even on Sutherlands star power more than 1 season. Shows like this generally do not appeal to older audiences, which are the most likely to be home watching TV on a monday through friday night.   See 10 other replies

Go watch the movie "PI" by Darren Aronofsky. A muslim friend explains to the main character, Max, that the Torah is a sequence of numbers and is a code from God. The world is more than just us here in the US. That's the premise really of the show, is that no matter where we are, what country we live, we are all connected to each other somehow.
It's one of the better shows that have been produced...next to 24 that is :)   See 4 other replies

One of the main storylines in Touch is that Martin lost his wife when the Towers fell. Maybe the creators of the series are trying to make sure that they don't damage to the image of Muslims in the U.S. even more.A hijab is not a burqa, it is merely a headscarf and, almost everywhere in the world, it is a completely voluntary accessory.   See 4 other replies
