US TV: Touch

[heavensent]

for me naman ok lang siya, parang CSI different cases every epi, pero may 1 major case for the whole season

^True. baka I'm just eager for the story to unveil faster..

[summersong]

Ang dating sa akin halos pareho sila ng theme ng Person of Interest: one person gets a number, another guy chases after the number, a black woman supporting them reluctantly. Mas family-oriented nga lang 'to, PoI mas lamang sa action. Nakakapagod ngang panoorin ito dahil Martin does all the legwork at ang laki ng emotional toll sa kanya, sa PoI kasi pwedeng tumulong yung iba.

I hope the finale will be worth waiting for.

mas lalo na ko nacurious dun sa story about sheri and what she seems to be covering up.

my guess is, there really is something fishy going on with that amelia case. and sheri is desperately trying to cover it up. first with teller's death and now with keeping jake away from martin (since he's esentially jake's hands). i also i think na she has something to do with jake's aunt coming into the picture. that is why jake keeps referencing to the company logo.

Lahat ng mga characters na lumabas sa Touch ay based sa New York or pupunta ng New York so I am guessing na there is something big that will happen in New York, na magcro-cross ang mga landas nila or they are somehow connected or related to one another -- parang degrees of separation

[_gigles_]

I wonder kung ano connect nung two asian girls na laging lumalabas, may significant connection kaya sila?

Parang sa Heroes lang rin. Hindi pa talaga maka-get over to si Tim Kring sa Heroes nya. hehe.

[pixiedust]

^haha! true. new yorker ba itong si tim kring?

^^oo nga noh. i forgot about those girls.

RENEWED for Season 2.

[pixiedust]

^i guess this means we'll get a cliffhanger finale. haha!

sana tim kring uses the second season to properly develop the characters and the story line. and sana it won't be like heroes na pag dating ng season 2, yung magandang naumpisahan just fell apart.

[pixiedust]

kabitin naman yung finale nito! medyo naiyak ako sa moment ni martin and jake ha. ang subtle pero ang powerful. kung ako si martin, nag break down na ko right there.

naisip ko lang, ang haba nung stretch ng story nung season pero ganun lang yung ending. i mean, pwede siyang gawing less than 12 episodes and we'll probably still get the same effect.

and super heroes ang peg talaga nito. so many seemingly random storylines per episode tapos sa finale biglang curtain call nung mga ibang characters.

[_gigles_]

^agree with the moment of Jake and Martin, pero I expected a hug or something after everything he went through naman but I guess baby steps muna sila. haha

parang may mga unnecessary events nga na pampahaba lang, either way they could still come up with the same finale or maybe sa season 2 sila magkakaroon ng connect.

Di ko pa rin alam ano connect nung 2 Japanese girls, kung significant ba sila or wala lang.

I thought lalabas or mahahanap si Emilia.

[FOURever]

^nung una iniisip ko baka yung japanese girls yung 'messenger' or parang taga konekta or taga-tighten ng connection ng mga connected people

[pixiedust]

oo nga di ko pa rin gets yung connection nung japanese girls. maybe sa next season nga.

i found it weird lang din pala that martin didn't react strongly when the mom said her daughter's name is amelia. i mean sobrang invested na niya on the case plus he now believes that everything is not a coincidence. so i was expecting sana na mas "omg" yung reaction niya. even the mom, when martin said jake is into numbers. parang "ah ok" lang yung reaction niya. kala ko she would go on like "my daughter too...etc."

but then again i guess, how the ending was made leaves us hanging. baka sa season 2 na silang dalawa magrereact. hehe.

If there are 34 more people (aside from Amelia and Jake) who see the world in a completely differently way through patterns and numbers, does that mean all of them are autistic?  Remember meron ding isang autistic male adult whom Martin met in the earlier episodes na obsessed din sa numbers and who scribbles in a notebook as what Jake does.

Feeling ko, parang conspiracy theory na ang Touch.  Aster Company is in search of the "36 righteous ones" and they somehow know who these people are even before they were born.  Why are they testing the limits of the abilities of these so-called "36?"  Kasi meron episode doon na nastre-stress na si Jake kasi paulit-ulit siyang tine-test ni Sheri.

Nagresearch ako tungkol dito sa 36 righteous people and this is what I found:  According to the Talmud, it is said that at all times there are 36 special people in the world, and that were it not for them, all of them, if even one of them was missing, the world would come to an end.  Mystical Hasidic Judaism as well as other segments of Judaism believe that there exist 36 righteous people whose role in life is to justify the purpose of humankind in the eyes of God. Jewish tradition holds that their identities are unknown to each other and that, if one of them comes to a realization of their true purpose then they may die and their role is immediately assumed by another person.

No wonder kaya pala adamant yung iba pang kasama ni Avram na magkita sina Amelia at Jake.

So far, this is how the Amelia sequence goes:  318529632879522975611881604551242545. I wonder what it means pag nabuo na yung sequence.

[sima]

I am happy for Martin noong kusang hinawakan ni Jake ang kamay niya noong nandoon sila sa Santa Monica Pier at nagkaroon sila ng chance encounter with Emilia's mom.

Since they are on the lam and nasa Los Angeles sila, doon na ang susunod na habulan blues ni Martin.  But I am guessing may connection pa rin yung mga taong mame-meet nila sa LA sa NY.

Sana magsalita rin si Jake tulad ni Emilia.

[greenarrowbabe]

^^ wow talagang niresearch mo pa. 

^ ako din! ramdam ko yung tuwa ni Martin nung tinouch siya ni Jake.  first time!

RENEWED for Season 2.

awesome! so love this show...

[greyzie]

i just finished the first season... addicted to it like my addiction to heroes' first season... sana tim kring will stay sa show, he has a certain touch (no pun intended ... given na magaling si kiefer as an actor. bilib ako sa child actor who plays jake.

for me naman, ok yun reaction ni martin... parang he took it in stride na di accidental yun pag-meet nila ng mom ni amelia.

can't hardly wait for season 2...

Season 2 starts on 08 February 2013!
