Touch - Production of the series started today

Share on Reddit


Jon Cassar (The Kennedys, Terra Nova), director of 56 (out of 192) episodes of 24, tweeted that Touch, the new FOX sci-fi drama series starring Kiefer Sutherland, entered production today.

The pilot of this show, created by Tim Kring (Heroes) and starring Kiefer Sutherland (24), Gugu Mbatha-Raw (Undercovers) and Danny Glover (Lethal Weapon), was shot in July 2011 by Francis Lawrence (I Am Legend). And now, episode 1.02 is in filming. A 13-episode first season was ordered by FOX.

Still no word on the timeslot this show will occupy this season. Will it be on Mondays at 9 (aka the former timeslot of 24) in case Alcatraz flops, or will it be on Fridays at 8 before Fringe (it'd certainly be more compatible than a cooking show) ?

No word on the premiere date either, other than a vague 'Spring 2012' (when you look at the trailer you'd think it would be nice if Touch started on March 18, but it's a Sunday). Plus, there's the same problem than NBC with Awake : if these two networks don't start their shows in January or February, how will they do to air all 13 episodes before late May ? If FOX wants to air all 13 episodes of Touch during the 2011/2012 season, the latest start possible is February 27 (if it's on Mondays) or March 2 (on Fridays), and there would be no interruption/no reruns until May 21 or May 25.

Anyway, for those who haven't seen it yet, here's the trailer for the pilot of Touch :
