‘TOUCH’ AND GO: KIEFER SUTHERLAND’S RETURN TO TV

For eight seasons, Kiefer Sutherland was one of Fox’s most famous faces, starring as counter-terrorism agent Jack Bauer on the groundbreaking Fox series “24.” After taking a year off, Sutherland’s ready to return to television — and to Fox — in the drama series “Touch.” On the new show, he’ll play a single father whose son can only communicate through mathematics and can’t be “touched.” Sutherland says he wasn’t looking specifically to return to television, but after reading the script for “Touch” and seeing so much growth potential for its characters, he couldn’t resist the opportunity to star in the series.
