For Season 2 of the Fox drama series Touch, the dramatic action shifts from New York to Los Angeles, where single father Martin Bohm (Kiefer Sutherland) and his gifted son, Jake (David Mazouz), are on the run.  Their priority is to help distraught mother Lucy Robbins (Maria Bello) find her missing and equally gifted daughter, Amelia (Saxon Sharbino), who may just be the key to understanding Jake’s abilities.

During this recent interview, show creator Tim Kring and executive producer Carol Barbee talked about what went into reinventing the series for the second season, strengthening the serialized element of the story, utilizing Kiefer Sutherland’s ability to do action, how the production design has changed with the change in setting, the biggest challenges in making the show, Jake’s increasing ability to communicate, the supernatural aspect of the show, and the best part about bringing these characters to life.  Check out what they had to say after the jump, and be aware that there are some spoilers.

After making waves with eight seasons of the action thriller series 24, actor Kiefer Sutherland and Fox are back together for what looks like a promising new drama series that I wish would’ve debuted this fall instead of next spring. From Heroes creator Tim Kring comes Touch, a drama about a widower (Sutherland) whose 11-year-old mute son is seeing patterns in numbers. But what does it all mean? Looking like a mix of Alex Proyas’ Knowing and the mythology of Kring’s aforementioned superhero drama on NBC, a new trailer released straight from Fox really makes Touch look like a promising addition to Fox’s dramatic line-up in 2012. After the jump you can see the trailer for yourself as well as the series’ official synopsis.

The series was part of Fox’s upfronts presentation back in May, and now Fox has officially order 13 episodes of Touch, a new drama series starring Kiefer Sutherland, who makes his return to the network after eight seasons of 24. Tim Kring (Heroes) created the new series which will hit the air sometime in the spring of 2012. Director Francis Lawrence (Water for Elephants) is behind the pilot for the series which is said to have 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. David Mazouz, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, and Danny Glover also star. You can check out the full series synopsis after the jump.

Last month we learned that Fox was going to bring back their 24 star Kiefer Sutherland to the small screen in Touch, a new drama series from Heroes creator Tim Kring. Now TV Line has learned that Danny Glover has joined the cast of the series which follows a father (Sutherland) who discovers that his son (David Mazouz) can predict events before they happen. Glover will play a professor named Arthur DeWitt, an expert on children who has some special gifts when it comes to dealing with numbers. The new series doesn’t debut until midseason next year so we don’t have any images or trailers from the upfront presentations last month, but after the jump you can check out the extended series synopsis from Fox’s upfront presentation earlier this month.

Wonder Woman will not die.  David E. Kelly is a bizarre choice to run the show, and the networks seemed to realize this when they passed on Wonder Woman in unison.  But where there’s a will (and a deeply troubled network), there’s a way: NBC has picked up Kelley’s Wonder Woman reboot.  I hope to see a live-action Wonder Woman in my lifetime, but not like this.  Not like this at all.

This report comes among a flurry of pilot season news involving such talent as Steven Spielberg, Conan O’Brien, Ethan Hawke, Rob Thomas, Tim Kring, and more.  Hit the jump for a recap.

Depending on your stance during the last couple seasons, you’ve already mourned or celebrated the cancellation of NBC’s comic book drama Heroes. No matter who’s to blame for the show’s eventual downfall, the series creator has some thoughts of his own on the reasons for the show’s eventual failure. Coincidentally, his thoughts on the show’s demise also seem to predict what the future of television might hold for viewers who don’t have the patience for another long-running, involved series like Lost.

Find out what Kring had to say after the jump.

After NBC did us all a favor by canceling the trainwreck of a series that Heroes became, there was some outcry from the most loyal of fans for a satisfying finale to the overly complicated super powered action drama. Back in May there was confirmation that network executives were thinking about putting together a two hour finale event to send the series off with some dignity, but now it looks like those chances are slim to none. EW reports NBC has decided not to pursue a TV movie to end Heroes with a proper finale. However, despite the fact that Heroes won’t return to the network airwaves, creator Tim Kring seems optimistic about a revival in some other form. Hit the jump for details.

When NBC cancelled Heroes last week, countless passionate fans were crestfallen at the loss of one their favorite series — at least in theory.  I mean, the latest season of the superhero saga did average under five million viewers per episode, right?  Yet, in a statement addressing the Heroes fanbase, creator Tim Kring cited “more than 45 million TV viewers around the world.” He lamented, “I certainly understand [NBC's] challenge of creating a business model around a show which arrived precisely as the audience was finding new ways to watch traditional content on multiple screens.”  So the news likely did depress millions upon millions; unfortunately, too few were 18-49-year-olds who watched the show (and its commercials) live within the U.S., as those are the eyeballs advertisers shell out for.

My condolences to the fans, but hold out hope for a rumored  Heroes movie in 2011 to tie up the loose ends, and check out the whole Kring’s statement after the jump.
