"Superb"

By scarybeautiful, Oct 26, 2011

One of my favorite episode so far. It was strong but also funny and not too serious but serious enough. This episode makes me want to see the next episode even more. But the confusing part for me was the end when Kyle started bleeding. I hope they describe on the next one. Great episode and I hope they make more like this one. Unlike the last one this episode had action. Like the fight in the restaurant when the boy tried to beat up Kyle. The begginning was kind of boring but they really picked it up in the middle and end.moreless

"Perfect"

By Canogaparkcindy, Mar 19, 2008

This is my favorite episode of Kyle XY. It is the best. I love the part when Jessi starts to push herself. More & More. Kyle starts to realize it too. Kyle & Jessi go to where Sarah's school. They find that she used to be rebellious. She always used to be the best at everything. Which makes Jessi push herself more. Kyle finds out that Sarah died because she pushed herself. Now Kyle needs to get through Jessi before she kills herself. Jessi has a near death experience. Then she promises Kyle she will stop.
Meanwhile...
Lori searches for a DJ for the prom. She finds one. But to meet him she has to stay for the bar. She is underage. A bar fight starts. Lori finds out the DJ was some guy she already knew. Who wouldn't even do a high school prom. Josh's girlfriend wants some action before her cancer screening. Kyle heals her in the end. Great episode. I like how Sarah's past added up with Jessi. Perfect!moreless

Really good episode!

"Superb"

By JPPT1974, Feb 29, 2008

OK, I know that I am in the majority in which nobody can seem to stand Jessi. But in order to understand her better, Kyle does his best in his sweet way to help her go to a college fair and research Sarah. Seems like both of those women would get along as they act like they are alike. Amanda gets dragged into a bar in order to see DJ. It seems as though the show is really getting better this season. As I can't wait for it to see inside what makes Jessi tick. Josh is the great comic foil to Kyle's straight man thing.moreless

I'm not really sure what to make of this episode. It seemed a bit of a filler episode to me.

"Good"

By BacktoBedlam, Feb 20, 2008

The whole thing with Jessi is getting really boring now. Every episode that I watch makes me like her less and less. She's just so ANNOYING. I do feel a little bit sorry for her because she is being manipulated really and that's not right. But taking all that into account I still can't help thinking that she's a b***h. I was glad to see there was much less Kyle/Amanda drama. I like them as a couple and they're really sweet together but it gets a bit tedious when there's one thing after another that's going on with them. To see them happy was a good change. I wish we could have seen more of Kyle and Adam. We've not really seen that much interaction between the two of them which is really interesting for me. I would love for Adam to meet the Tragers. Maybe he will next week?

One of my favourite parts of the whole episode, surprisingly, was the stuff between Andy and Josh. It was nice to see her just being honest and it was quite emotional. And that scene where they make up was kinda sweet. The last scene is intriguing. Did he heal her? That would be interesting seen as it looked to me like he didn't do it intentionally and was just out of his compassion for her. It seemed to surprise him as much as anyone. Will there be consequences to that? Maybe, from the looks of next weeks ep. And let's hope so, that would be interesting. Hope next weeks is better. Sometimes I just wish they'd stop with so much teen drama, cos that's not what this show is. It seems there's some advancement of the story but then it just seems to stop and we don't learn anything new, or nothing's mentioned for a couple of episodes. It's a bit frustrating.moreless

- Kyle: There's truth in the saying that, "Time heals all wounds." Physically the healing begins in moments, and our bodies do all the work. But when a relationship is injured, some wounds heal in a day; others lay bare for the rest of our lives. Sometimes we only have to heal ourselves, and sometimes our true work lies in healing others.

- Mark: You wanna ask a D.J. who spins at the biggest parties on campus to do a high school prom? Lori: What's wrong with that? Mark: Well, for one, it's in high school. High school kids are, well, stupid. Lori: I'm in high school, jackass! Mark: You know, you're really making a good case for why I shouldn't bust you to your dad. Lori: You know what? Do whatever you want: be a suck up, contribute to me being grounded yet again for the rest of high school. And then, maybe, when I come of age I will come down here legally, and personally kick your ass.
