Kyle XY Review: Is it Worth Your Precious Viewing Time?

Who is Kyle XY?

About.com Rating 4.5

Reminiscent of Roswell, Kyle XY tells the story of a teenage boy who wakes up in the middle of a forest, unaware of who he is or where he came from. Is he an alien or could he have been manufactured by our own government?

Is it Worth Your Precious Viewing Time?

Absolutely. Kyle has all the necessary elements a summer series needs to captivate an audience....family drama, teen angst, humor and loads of mystery. Many of the scenes were laugh out loud funny, the family dynamics were realistic and all the while, I eagerly waited to learn more about this mysterious boy who seems to possess supernatural gifts. Like any good series, I found myself anxiously awaiting the next episode. Kyle XY is the perfect series to tide us over until the fall season begins.

Reminiscent Of....

Roswell, Smallville and The 4400.
