Kyle XY Discussions: "I've Had The Time Of My Life"

KYLE XY - "I've Had The Time of My Life" - Prom is finally here and everyone is scrambling to make the night as perfect as possible, on "Kyle XY," airing on MONDAY, MARCH 17 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET/PT) on ABC Family.

This will be the last Kyle XY discussion post. The idea was a complete flop and I don't expect to continue this in the future. It's really hard to keep people interested with so few resources and so few readers....That and my busy schedule didn't always leave me available to watch the latest episode in a timely manner.

You know the drill. If you want to discuss the episode, leave your thoughts here.

Hit the link below for my thoughts on the episode

After watching this episode, I've decided that I would like Jessi to be a supervillian. I mean its perfect! All Taylor has to has to do is keeping training her to be a super soldier and she could theoretically be the Lex Luthor of Kyle XY. That is.....if they don't kill her first.

With the sudden revival of Andy, I'm guessing that Jessi is going to die. Most tv shows have characters that die and Kyle XY has yet to see that happen. Especially, considering how controversial this show is, to the point that the writers are just trying to add a controversy like masturbation to every episode. I can completely see them playing the "death card".

-The cheating accusation was a little unbeleivable and I felt like this storyline was a little weak.
-Again they play up Lori writing her song for the prom. Should be good, congrats to April!
-This wasn't a particularly memorable episode. It was just so so. The most important part of the episode was developing the Nicoles relationship Josh and Kyle.

Kyle XY Discussions: "Primary Colors"

-Wish they would have spent more time dealing with Andy's cancer remission. The show just kind of tossed that in and spent little time with it. Which is both good and bad. The good is that the episode can flow better and the bad is that they are over looking a potentially good storyline.
-Josh is funny as usual. "but he's the king of stupid town!"
-Jessi further solidifies her need to be a jerk
-Can you say love triangle? April, Declan, and that new DJ guy, whose name alludes me right now.
-And lastly, the introduction of Sarah is not that great of a twist. It's not all that shocking and not all that interesting, but I'm willing to give the show the benefit of the doubt.

Kyle XY Discussions: "First Cut Is The Deepest"

KYLE XY - "First Cut Is The Deepest" - Kyle takes Jessi on a trip to learn more about Sarah to make amends, but he soon realizes that the damage may already be done, on "Kyle XY," airing on MONDAY, FEBRUARY 18 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET/PT) on ABC Family.

I really really enjoyed this episode. I thought the overall story was well put together. Great acting, humor, and Andie was amazing! She is slowly becoming my favorite character on the show. I demand more Andie!!!

-Sarah really must have been insane, who wrights on the ceiling??? And with good hand writing too. Wouldn't your hands start to cramp up.
-The Kyle Andie hug was amazing! Possibly the best moment of this season so far.
-Jessi is a complete jerk...
-Adam Baylin sleeps in a warehouse??? Just like Foss??? Personal Hygiene???
-A nerdy DJ???
-Foreshadowing the death of Jessi???
-I've noticed that this show makes a lot of references to past episodes. It's like "hey remember that thing you did a couple of episodes ago?" That's not necessarily a bad thing, I just thought it was worth pointing out since this show seems to do that a little more than other shows.
-Declan randomly punching that guy was hilarious!
-And finally, once again this episode proves how clueless Amanda can be. Is she not smart enough to put two and two together. Jessi in a bar.....then you have Kyle in a bar......all at the same time. Nope, nothing to be suspiciously paranoid about!

Kyle XY Discussions: "Between The Rack And A Hard Place"

KYLE XY - "Between The Rack and a Hard Place" - Kyle is torn between obeying Adam's orders to stay close to Jessi and heeding Amanda's plea to stay away from her, on "Kyle XY," airing on MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET/PT) on ABC Family.

Did I like this episode? Honestly,I thought it was just so so. Despite really liking the last episode, I'm burned out with two episodes in a row taking place in one location. I miss the episodes that balanced different sets and multiple storylines.

-I'm really starting to grow a liking to Andie.
-I'm more than ever disliking Amanda. Don't do it Kyle, she's not worth it!
-The scene where April pepper sprays the new TA in the face was hilarious! Funniest moment from the past 5 episodes!
-Errections *cough* have been so common place in Kyle XY, that I almost come to expect a reference of some kind in every other episode...Move over Sour Patch Kids!

I really enjoyed this episode. The story was clever and there was plenty of humor despite the entire episode being in one location. *SPOILERS*

-The beer bed was hilarious!
-I thought Josh sticking up for Declan was unusual.
-I like how Declans personality is developing this season.
-Doesn't Amanda ever question how Kyle can control electrical appliances? She's not that dumb is she?
-More grapefruit humor...priceless and disturbing.
-I liked Josh's green shirt.
-*SPOILER* It's about freaking time we saw those people at the end of the episode.

First off, I just barely watched this weeks new episode. Embarrasing I know. *sigh* It's been such a busy week and you know my week has been busy when I'm not able to watch the new kyle episode the day of.

- Oh yeah, Amanda's feelings have changed. *rolls eyes*
- During the whole episode I was just thinking, "why can't Kyle talk to Amanda telepathically?" But I guess that only works with Kyle and Jessie.
- Also, wtf? Why is Jessie going back and forth on the whole being evil thing. If ththere is one thing this show likes to do with villains is that, they like to go back and forth. Is Foss good or is he evil?
- Rawr at the Trager parents. You know what I'm talking about. ;)
- Hillary is a master chef? Didn't see that coming.
- Anyone catch the bag of Sour Patch Kids Xploderz?
- Overall it was a good episode. Any episode chalked full of teen drama is a good episode.

*THE COMMENTS SECTION IS COMPLETELY OPEN TO SPOILERS*

*UPDATE*
*tumbleweed goes by* Wow! There are too many comments! I can't keep up! Nah, only kidding.

I'll summarize what I thought about the episode.
-Declan broke his leg.....apparently in real life and they quickly wrote that into the script.
-Jessi's attitude did a complete 360. The way she acted and sounded was much different than previous episodes. It sort of made it unbelievable and disconnected me a little.
-I like the editing in this episode, some shots felt very different than previous episodes.
-I'm glad Kyle's powers are finally lifting off the ground (no pun intended)
-No water sprinkler can lift up a 160 pound human being.....
-Also the school blog doesn't exist as far as I can tell, I looked.

Kyle XY Community Discussions: To C.I.R., With Love

As far as screenshots go, I'll post as many as I can here, and if there is demand I'll set up a dedicated flickr account.

By the way, this will be the typical format for all Monday discussions and immediately after the episode airs I'll update this same post with my thoughts on the episode. If you would like to participate, click the comment button to the bottom right.

Oh, and lots of spoilers! If you don't want any spoilers, avoid this post completely! These discussions are completely open to spoilers ever week! You've been warned.

Hope to see you around,

*UPDATE* My thoughts on "To C.I.R. With Love" SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS

Wow! If there is one thing that Kyle XY does really well, its the pacing. Despite the incredibly short season that this show is familiar with, the writers consistently manage to give the audience enough answers while pushing the show forward. Balancing intrigue, family values, teen drama, and mystery, this is what makes this show so unique.

"To C.I.R. With Love" Was a great example of a balanced episode. Everything from Kyle revealing his secrets to the Tragers, taking Ballentine out of Mada Corp, and the usual unedited sexual tension between Lori and Declan. This was a great episode in terms of setting up the season.

Oh and the scenes from next weeks episode...good heck! Is Jessie seriously going to be evil again, even after all the redeeming that went on in that episode! Fine be that way ABC Family! You can keep the jacket!...Only teasing, give me the jacket back. I think Jessie being evil for the rest of season 2 is a great idea. I mean, how else are you going to stop Kyle?

Speaking of the big baddies in the show. Mada Corp finally showed there true colors in this episode which is long over do and much appreciated in my opinion. The show clearly labels Mada Corp as being the bad guys but I've never really found them to be that threatening. So props to the writers for taking that up a notch. Admittedly though, I would like to see them step that up even further without taking away from the other themes of the show.

My favorite moment of the episode: "I call it songs to get felt up by Declan to."
Your favorite moment?
Screenshot requests?

*This screenshot is the kind of quality I'm currently working with. I'm definitely working on making that better and I'm sure I can. I realize its not the best but if you bear with me, I'll do what I can to make it better.

*UPDATE* I can get direct feed screenshots off itunes. So no worries about quality anymore.

Oh and one last thing, not a single Sour Patch Kids commercial! Unless I missed something...

Why iPhones Are A Pain or A Long General Update

As I write this, my laptops battery life is yelling at me. It has only 10 minutes left of battery life. Which, usually doesn't always mean I have 10 minutes left. It more likely means that I only have 5.

I had a great week! Now, that vacation is over, its back to the sad reality that is my life. Good news is that I start my job today and this semester is getting ever closer to finishing.

*UPDATE* Turns out my laptop did turn off. What did I say about that 10 minute lie!?! More like 3 minutes you liar!

Really I could have just posted something from my iPhone. I'll either post from my computer or my iPhone. Never a public computer, which is what I am using right now. Poor me, I know. Too many eyes looking down at me. Freaks me out!

Speaking of my iPhone, I don't know how many of my readers are familiar with the hacking scene or the firmware related to it but, I've decided to restore my phone to the first firmware then add version 1.1.1. I've been using 1.0.2 all this time because of the stability of it. Mostly I was waiting for the hacking scene to become more stable on 1.1.1 before I committed to a new firmware. The other reason was that I simply got tired of constantly wiping and restoring my phone. But seeing as how there is no hope or need to wipe my phone for future updates(Apple fixed all the exploits in the system), I'm willing to do it one last time.

I'm really looking forward to playing the classic Lucas Arts "point and click" adventure games on my phone. An emulator was just released for the phone that apparently is the best emulator yet for the genre! I missed out on a lot of the classic adventure games and I'm hoping to reconcile by getting my phone up and running.

*A note about the lack of updates etc. etc.*
I've been busy lately, blah blah blah. I've been feeling a little creatively frustrated lately. Rather than promising weekly updates (which I never did, but certainly implied) I'm going to post videos and podcasts when I feel like I have something worth posting. It's the whole quantity versus quality thing. It's important to consider that the style of videos that I make are not vlogging meaning, more work goes into them than just sitting in front of my computer talking about my day....thats why I have a blog!

Anything to add to this post? Let me think. I finished Uncharted, Rayman, and Mario Galaxy. I highly recommend all of those games. Of the three I was most impressed by Uncharted, simply because I did not expect it to be so much fun or so well developed. The voice acting was amazing, just as good as Heavenly Sword! The game really reminded me of Tomb Raider and Resident Evil 4. Check it out if you have a PS3!
