This most recent episode (with Kyle going to school for the first time) was one of the better ones. It reminded me more of the mood and tone of the Pilot.

Given this info......
ABC Family is giving its freshman drama "Kyle XY" a second season as the cable channel has ordered at least 13 new episodes of the series.
To date this season, the Touchstone Television/Benderspink-based "Kyle" has averaged a solid 2.1 million viewers, including 336,000 among adults 18-34 and 793,000 among adults 18-49. Faring even better are its Friday night encores on ABC, which have averaged more than double its initial ABC Family run - 4.6 million overall viewers and 1.8 million among adults 18-49.

ABC will continue to air the re-runs of the ABC Family hit show, Kyle XY.
The show has done so with ratings on the main network that ABC is extending the run to air all 10 episodes of the drama about a mysterious teen past its original four-episode commitment.
ABC has been running Kyle XY Fridays at 9pm drawing an average 4.6 million total viewers to the timeslot - finishing first or second most weeks in the demo, notes Variety. ABC Family premiered the show on June 26th to 2.6 million - the biggest audience for an original series in the network's history, and has since averaged 2 million overall viewers.
The season finale of Kyle XY airs August 28th on ABC Family and re-airs September 1st on ABC.

Goop episode tonight/this week.
It wasn't like it was a huge surprise, but it was a little freaky at first seeing that picture from '85.
So do we think the security company guy is actually trying to help Kyle, or not? I'm guessing he is.

The show is getting a bit darker. I think I even read something with the creators saying they thought it was getting darker than they originally planned, which is fine with me.

OK episode tonight, but one thing kind of annoyed me - if those are actually supposed to be his parents, shouldn't they be MUCH older?
Wasn't the picture at UW of him from 1985? Say he was 20 in it, meaning he was born in 1965, and if his mom was 20 when she had him, she should be 60.
Unless it turns out to be a hoax by the "company."

I think the "parents" are a cover-up sent by the company.

Of course that still wouldn't really explain why the pictured kid's parents are that young, so I'll say that is a hoax.

Maybe the parents got the same treatment as he did.
