(S02E08) Even though last week's episode of Kyle XY wasn't filled with mysteries and XX/XY mythology, it did leave us with a few questions and expectations: who was Lori's attacker, will Kyle really reveal everything to Declan, etc. Lucky for us, this week's episode gave us the answers.

"What's the Frequency, Kyle?" was a good episode that offered us answers, developed characters more, and gave us a bit more to chew on when Madacorp is concerned.

(S02E07) There were no answers to our burning questions in this week's episode (for example, where is Foss and is Emily his wife?), but "Free To Be You and Me" offered some character development.

XX and XY finally talked to one another, Jessi made friends, Stephen made a new friend too, we learned more about Andy, Kyle and Amanda had their first date, and Declan and Kyle reconciled.

(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.
