Kyle XY Orders More Episodes!!

From Buddy TV -

The second season premiere of ABC Family’s sci-fi drama series, Kyle XY, scored high in the ratings chart, with fans trying to find answers to unresolved issues raised in the previous season.

The debut season of Kyle XY followed its lead character, Kyle, as he tried to gain some insight as to why he woke up with no memory of his past and no knowledge of his true identity. He had to learn how to be human, starting with fundamental activities such as eating, drinking and communicating with others.

In an interview with iF Magazine, Matt Dallas, who portrays Kyle in the sci-fi series, said the previous season “was all about everyone taking care of Kyle and him finding out where he came from and what his origin was.” However, in the current season, the 24-year-old actor said that it is Kyle’s turn to take care of all the other characters as he embarks on a personal journey to find “his purpose in life.”

Although Kyle still has little idea of his true origin, it was revealed in the previous season that he did not possess a bellybutton, a telltale sign that he is not of the human race.

When asked how the effect is achieved, Dallas replied, “To be honest with you, we don’t use a prosthetic. We have one, but usually they CGI it out. Which works better for me because it means less time in the make up chair.”

The developments on-screen have given way to some changes off-screen. Dallas said that in shooting this season, he was made to undergo more rigorous physical training, which included rock climbing and “crazy leaps and jumps.” Dallas also had to learn how to play the guitar.

Another change fans can expect this year is a longer Kyle XY season. The first season only contained ten episodes, whereas the second season has twenty-three episodes, which, according to Dallas, will be shown in two different blocks.

“So, you’ll get a set of thirteen and then there’ll be a big hiatus and then you’ll have the second block in the winter,” he explained.

Dallas also talked of the possibility of new villains for this season, and referred to the character Jessi XX (Jamie Alexander) as “the dark to Kyle’s light.”
