(S02E22) "I think it's time we introduce ourselves." - A Latnok memberWow! Another great
Kyle XY episode that paved the way for what will surely be a rocking finale. What? You thought this was the finale because it's episode 2.22? ABC Family is actually treating us with a 23rd hour of
XY this season! So expect to see the prom unfold, more Sarah and Jessi dealings, and surely more Latnok. In the meantime, let's deal with this week's Jessi-centric episode, "Hello..."

Kyle XY fans rejoice!
TV Guide reports that our favorite
super-teen with no belly button returns to the small screen on January 14 in its regular timeslot. That is when we'll learn if
Jessi survived her fall (although if you can't wait until then, keep reading).
And we have another reason to be celebrate, the cast and crew had time to complete the 10 remaining episodes of Season 2 before the writers' strike started.
Spoilers ahead!Continue reading Kyle XY's January return

More secrets and lies! More Madacorp! More mysteries! More Foss! Sorry, I guess the news that
Kyle XY will return for a third season got to me. Those who read my
Kyle XY reviews over the summer know that I'm a Foss fan, so I sure hope they find a way to have him stick around as long as possible.
Various sources confirm that even if the last ten episodes of Season 2 have yet to air, ABC Family is satisfied enough with how
Kyle XY performed over the summer (and probably with how the second part of the current season looks) that they decided to renew the series.

(
S02E13)
Last week's episode put the wheels in motion for the midseason finale of
Kyle XY. "Leap of Faith" not only answered questions (what was the connection between Adam and that Jessi-looking woman) but also raised tons of new ones (who is keeping Adam alive and why). Even if most of the fans have been pleased with the pace at which the show answers questions, the wait between now and the midseason premiere will be quite long.

(
S02E12) "Lockdown" is the episode before the midseason finale (yes, it's already that time of year!). The episode pushed the storylines further in order to set the tone for this coming Monday's episode, "Leap of Faith."
Thanks to Nicole setting a lockdown, Andy and Josh came to an understanding, Declan and Lori talked things through, Amanda and Kyle explained one another (well, sort of), and Kyle was able to get guidance for his next move. But let's not forget that the lockdown also had an effect on Nicole and Stephen, who somewhat grew more apart but, in the end, made their way back together.

(S02E11) After two action packed episodes, I expected this week's installment of
Kyle XY to be a filler episode. When watching the first minutes of "Hands on a Hybrid," I thought I was right but the rest of the episode proved me wrong. Not only did the episode tell us more about Madacorp's business and how far Ballantine is willing to go, but Kyle and Jessi finally know they are alike.

(
S02E10) Sorry for the delay in posting my review of this week's episode. Let's resume it to: Life got in the way. Again this week,
Kyle XY entertained us with a great episode that helped further the storyline. The writers are definitely setting the stage for the mid-season finale (aka episode 2.13).
Josh tried to get Andy to confide in him. Kyle and Amanda's relationship was put to the test. Emily continued her ploy to have the Tragers think she and Stephen are having an affair (and it worked on Lori). Ballantine got a lot of screen time, and a first name. Foss and Declan had to work together in order to help Kyle. Nicole discovered that Jessi and Kyle may have a lot more in common than just being teenagers... Kyle finds that out too!

(S02E09) Oh. My. God. What a fantastic episode! A good number of fans, myself included, had been saying that we thought the season was rather slow, especially the last few episodes. But this week's episode was unlike those last episodes as it was filled with
Kyle XY mythology and was action packed.
Foss is back! There were a lot of flashbacks with Adam Baylin, Kern, and Bryan Taylor at Zzyxz. And we finally know what Andy has. Sadly, Nicole, Stephen and Emily weren't in the episode but I'm sure we'll soon enough know what they were up to. (What do you think Stephen did on his business trip? Was Emily with him so she could follow through on her mission to take care of him?)

(S02E06) An interesting episode title for an interesting episode. According to
TV.com's Kyle XY guide, this week's title was inspired by a Philip K. Dick novel titled "
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep," which was the inspiration for
Bladerunner. Could there be similarities between the book and
Kyle XY?
In this week's episode, Kyle discovered a new power. Stephen starts work at Madacorp. Jessi begins to have a "normal" life... and gets a boyfriend. Josh realizes that Andy is great. Lori finally sees something through. And, most importantly, a friend is revealed to be ... a foe!

(S02E05) ABC never planned to air all
Kyle XY episodes this summer. However, the network was supposed to air the five first episodes but decided to remove
XY from this week's lineup. Fortunately, I had enlisted a friend's help so I would get my
XY fix every week even though ABC stopped caring. Thanks to said friend for taping the series for me. This change in my viewing schedule means that starting next week, you should expect my reviews around Wednesdays.
This week's episode finally had Jessi's world collide with Kyle's. I doubt that fans were surprised this week by the episode as most of us had already predicted part of what happened.

(S02E04) It was inevitable: Kyle would soon have problems juggling between family life and his secret superhuman one. This week's episode was all about that balancing act Kyle must perform. The episode didn't only allow Kyle to work on a new ability and save the say, but also provided Josh and Lori a time to shine. Sadly, "Balancing Act" was XX-less but that doesn't mean that her storyline didn't evolve.

(S02E03) Are you on the list? In this week's episode of
Kyle XY, the teens at school either want to be on the list or not. This year's list is quite revealing and is an eye opener for one of the female characters.
This episode offered us good character development and showed us how powerful Madacorp is. From the list to "mind over matter" and not forgetting XX getting a name, episode 2.03 delivered the goods.

(S02E02) My laptop died just before I was about to leave for a business trip on June 17. As soon as my plane landed in my hometown last Friday, I ran to a local computer seller and bought a new laptop. After a few hours of installing new software and doing updates, I can now bring you the
Kyle XY second episode review.
Last week's premiere ended with Kyle going back to the Tragers and XX coming to life. Even if the episode was answers-packed, the ending left us with a few questions: Would Kyle and the Tragers be able to go back to how life was before he left? Would Kyle be able to keep his secret from his loved ones? Who would get a hold of XX first? What would XX's impact on Kyle be when they finally meet one another?

(S02E01) When TV Squad asked us to
list what we would watch over the summer, I struggled to find something else than reality TV as I don't get all the nifty cable channels. After seeing that ABC would air most, if not all, episodes of
Kyle XY, I decided to give the show a shot as I heard only good things about it.
In order to prepare myself for the Season 2 premiere, I bought the Season 1 DVD and had a little
XY marathon. Of course, I got hooked and couldn't wait for the premiere to get answers, especially when, in one of the DVD extras, the people behind the show promised me tons of answers early in the season.
The people behind the show didn't lie to me.
