I understand saving the good stuff until the season finale, but if Kyle XY had been this quality all along, I probably wouldn’t have made fun of it so much. Nah. I probably would have. The season finale seemed much better than the other episodes this season. The hair and make-up was better. The lighting [...]

I have “The Right Stuff” by New Kids on the Block stuck in my head and have no idea how it got there. Haven’t heard it in years, except maybe on a VH1 special, but there it is. Just the chorus, over and over again. This may be a psychiatric condition. I blame Kyle XY. [...]

Who directed this episode? Was it a member of the Junior High Soap Opera Re-Enactment Society? The pained expressions and over the top delivery was just too much tonight, and as I sat there watching Kyle and Jessie pull up the t-shirts to expose their matching belly button free bellies, I had to wonder, who [...]

I’ve missed the last couple of episodes of Kyle XY. Last week I was trapped in Virginia and the week before our cable was out because the roofers decided to just cut ten feet of cable out of their way rather than picking it up. Jerks. Related Stuff:

I’m not the world’s biggest Kyle XY fan. I find the narration to be annoying, a lot of the acting to be stilted and of a level of quality usually reserved for amateur dinner theater, and the After-School special-ness of the episodes to be beyond cloying. In fact, I dislike the show so much, that [...]

Kyle XY turned into Electric Boogaloo tonight. The dance lesson with Kyle and the nameless Trager brother was cute, although it could have used a montage, like Chris Penn’s dance lesson montage in Footloose. And Kevin Bacon should have shown up at the Swing Spring Fling for a group dance scene! (There’s always room for [...]

What is with this warehouse where Kyle was training with Tom Foss? It’s like the place just gives him whatever he needs. He needed a climbing wall, and there was a climbing wall. The Trager boy needed a car, and there was a car. Now Amanda lost her piano, and suddenly there’s a beat up [...]

I’ve decided I want a sappy soundtrack for my life, like the one Kyle XY has when there’s a break-up or a reconciliation or a moment of challenge. Now I have to decide if it would be better to have a band follow me around or just turn my iPod up really loud. The iPod [...]

The thinkle is spreading! It’s jumped from Kyle to Declan and now the brother, whose name I can’t be bothered to remember! It’s struggling to make the jump to the Trager dad, but it’s having a hard time breaking past his Botox barrier. Kyle’s own thinkle is getting more thinkly. At one point tonight he [...]

Teen drama is just so. . . stupid. Kyle XY did OK last week, then this week it went all Beverly Hills 90210 on me with teenage “relationship” problems, underage drinking and re-virginizing. And in the middle of it all was Kyle’s thinkle. A thinkle is a wrinkle between the eyes that indicates emotions ranging [...]

Tonight on ABC Family: attempted rape, goo covered nudity, murder and lies! Talk about “A New Kind of Family.” Last week I had a huge problem with Kyle XY; this week’s episode wasn’t particularly awesome, but it was so much better than the season two premiere. It looks like Kyle XY is making my weekly [...]

I totally missed Kyle XY last summer, despite the giant posters at the San Diego Comic-con reading “Who is Kyle XY?” The image of Kyle waking up naked in the woods on the edge of Seattle struck me as a direct rip off of the opening shot of John Doe, which annoyed me because I [...]
