In short a great pilot, although I'm left worried that this series will become yet another show that has little place to go after pouring all its creative energy into its first episode. Are we now left with little more than a by the numbers adventure of the week? Touch's premise that everything is connected (and we get to see the dots being joined up) is 'mumbo jumbo' explained by Danny Glover early on and I can't see it being revisited again other than in the opening credits each week. Replace "Fibonacci Sequence" with "Super Computer" and in many ways you end up with "Person of Interest", although Touch does have a few interesting central characters at least.

If Touch can continue to keep us caring about its main and episodic characters (even with a bit of blatant emotional manipulation every now and again) then it might go the distance. But I suspect most viewers will have formed a solid opinion by episode three either way.
