Review: I had heard of Kyle XY in passing over the years. When it first came out we were sent some press releases and such, but I never really gave it a chance. It just looked too teen oriented for me. I already watch Smallville, thats enough youthful angst, I figure. So, when we came upon this DVD I decided to give it a good chance, because honestly most of my favorite shows keep getting cancelled and I need new ones!
Its been referred to as Smallville meets Dawson's Creek and I really found that to be the case. The relationships in this world take the first chair, and after that comes the sci-fi elements. This caught me by surprise, because Smallville has really balanced the two very well and this show is definately more love drama than action/sci-fi. Its still a cool show and definately worth checking out, but don't expect straight sci-fi.
The bonus features on the DVD include Kyle XY: Future Revealed – A look at what would have happened in Season 4, Deleted Scenes and Audio Commentaries. This DVD set is your chance to wrap-up this cool show and complete your collection! We even get a look into what would have happened with this series if Fox had graced it with a fourth season. Honestly, on Fox it was lucky to get three, they're so cancel-happy (we still miss the Sarah Connor Chronicles!). The story could have been more involved and the acting isn't always top shelf, but this is a cool show and worth getting into.
