Touch: Season 1
Hey Guys,
here we go again… me and my parents just watching the first thing we found on Netflix – Touch. We had seen episodes of it before. We are not sure if we saw the whole thing or just half. But we started watching when it was first aired in Germany. Actually it is just not my thing. My parents wanted to watch because of Kiefer Sutherland. It was in that phase, when my father bought every Kiefer Sutherland film he saw. The serie is kinda like 24 – Kiefer Sutherland runing around and his kind never does what it should. That are all of the simularise.
Stop joking…
Communication
The story is about a father with a kid that is a challenge. He doesn’t like to be touched and hits around when they do. He doesn’t speak and is mostly writing numbers. The father is overwhelmed with work and is son on his own. This is when the social security office steps in to check if he can care for him or not. The kid – the name is Jake – sees the world different. He sees things in numbers. He sees the bigger picture. He gives his father numbers and he must find out what they mean. It can be anything… a flight number or a time. Sometimes it is just everything at ones. All these people are connected with each other. Things on the other half of the world are effecting the events.
Does this lead?
The first season shows us that everything is somehow conacted and that there are others like Jake (the kid). Someone want these people. But we does get more. Season one is just showing us a little piece of the picture and when you think in the final everything will lead now together, it doesn’t. You don’t get any answers or no what it is that actually is going on. This is not totally a bad thing. It make you look the next season just to see if the second season will give us answers. But the whole episodes are not very emotional for me. They don’t get me. Destiny is not enough to make me interessted.
Look or not
It is really hard decision. The serie is not bad. It is okay to watch, but either the story nor the characters capture me in any way. There is no character that i love. They just all their. Some stories are sweet but they don’t break my heart or make me feel warm. I just watch it and than it is over and you just can stop watching without the feeling of missing something.
So if you don’t have anything else to watch, than watch this but if you have another serie you may stay with that serie. I won’t rewatch this serie… so this is for me a not watching.
