If the rest of the show is like the pilot (available in the usual places), then it'll be a fantastic show.

Will very definitely be watching.

Very good and interesting. I just hope they don't do what they normally do with shows like this and stretch it out too far if it becomes popular.

Has a very Heroes feel thanks to Kring - music, cinematography, foreign languages/subtitles all the same. Not that it's a bad thing... just, the same.

Jury is out.

Nice feel good series so far. I've always liked films/tv shows that have several stories running all at once that don't make full sense untill right to the end. I just hope it doesn't get too samey after a few episodes.

Seems very formulaic and will suffer from unknown second season syndrome sadly.

About 10 years ago there was an import called tomorrows news or gazette about a guy who gets tomorrow's paper every day nd has to save someone, Touch reminds me of this with a bit of heroes thrown in.

His name is Gary Hobson. He gets tomorrow's newspaper today. He doesn't know how. He doesn't know why. All he knows is when the early edition hits his doorstep, he has twenty-four hours to set things right.

That's the one, no new ideas anymore! Well found.

Agree with this, I gave it a chance but not really interested in it tbh. Kiefer Sutherland grates in it as well, for me. In summary, there's far more worthy programmes fighting for space on the planner so its in the bin.

Feels a bit like a new style Quantum Leap to me, man trying to figure out what he has to "fix" in order to move on. Bored now.

Lost interest during the second episode. It mostly consists of Kiefer shouting at the kid. I'm oot.

I loved the pilot but am feeling a bit wary after the second episode - it was fairly predictable and didn't really offer anything new beyond what the first one did. I'm going to need to see some conflict/threat and some answers or I'll be switching off frown

It's beautifully made though
