Touch, Season 1

From writer/creator Tim Kring (Heroes) and executive producers Peter Chernin (Terra Nova) and Katherine Pope (Terra Nova) comes Touch, a preternatural drama in which science and spirituality intersect with the hopeful premise that we are all interconnected, tied in invisible ways to those whose lives we are destined to alter and impact. Martin Bohm (Kiefer Sutherland), a widower and single father, is haunted by an inability to connect to his mute, severely autistic 11-year-old son, Jake. But everything changes when Martin discovers that Jake possesses a gift of staggering genius - the ability to see things that no one else can, the patterns that connect everything. Jake is indeed communicating after all. But it's not with words, it's with numbers. Martin meets Arthur Teller (Danny Glover), a professor and an expert on children who possess special gifts when it comes to numbers. Now it's up to Martin to decipher the meaning and connect the numbers to the cast of characters whose lives they affect.
