Touching Evil - 3/19

I'm surprised that no one has commented on this yet. I think this show is great. Both episodes have been excellent thus far.

Synopsis available here

That Cyril is an interesting character. So he still believes that reality is a dream.

Who played Richard Simon, the arsonist? He looked so familiar.

I liked this episode also. I think part of the reason the plots are so compelling is becasue they are emotionally charged.

I really enjoy this show and think it's continuing in the right direction.

I liked the pilot, but not this last episode. I just thought someone would have to be an idiot to take a rufee around an arsonist who liked to burn people. And why? I thought he should have shot her.

I think he was trying not to shoot her because of the baby. And also, I guess he figured his partner would jump in to help (which she did).

Does anyone else think the reason he couldn't sleep was because of Cyril's beliefs about reality/dream world?

So far, I've liked both episodes.

Um... isn't the entire basis for this program that they guy isn't all there, and doesn't "play by the rules"?

That "Kate and Allie" kid is making quite a career for himself as of late, playing psychos. First it was "NYPD Blue", then "Joan of Arcadia", now this show.

Good show, worth staying with. Cable is consitently doing a better job of rolling out good drama.

And one of Vern Schillinger's unpleasant sons on OZ.

I loved Creegan's playing Horsey with the kid. That was very natural.

One thing that really stands out to me about touching evil is the writing. This could easily be another lame cop drama but the writing is what differentiates it from the others.
