Kyle XY Exciting Hit for ABC Family

KyleXY Kyle XY kicks off with an enigmatic premise, as a mysterious youth named Kyle (Matt Dallas) is adopted by a psychiatrist and her family, and discover to have no memories, no language and no belly button. Kyle assimilates to normal life with superhuman ease while attempting to discover clues to his strange existence. Despite lacking the intensity of Lost or specials effects of Smallville, Kyle XY is simply a good show. Though super-intelligent, Kyle is out of his depth with regards to relationships, and Dallas’ innocent and beleaguered expression reinforces the character’s almost child-like persona. Good writing keeps the premise fresh while effectively balancing character over plot. Overall, Kyle XY is a good, teen-friendly win for ABC Family’s lineup. Kyle XY airs on ABC Family at 7:00 PM on Monday.
