Sad Kyle XY news. Though the show has been a big success for ABC Family for most of its run, the network has decided to cut Kyle XY short after three seasons and 43 episodes. Understandably the TV show’s many fans are very upset about the cancellation and are hoping that the series can continue in some way.
Though it’s very rare that fan campaigns can change a network executive’s mind, it can happen. Recently, the executive producer of Friday Night Lights said he believes the show has survived in large part because NBC has recognized the passion of its audience. If nothing else, Kyle XY fans are certainly passionate. We’ve created this page to keep track of the ways that viewers can show support for Kyle XY.
Watch Kyle XY on ABC Family
Essentially, the most important thing to a network is for as many as possible 18-49 viewers. The more that watch, the more money the network can charge for their advertising. Watch every episode on TV — live, if possible — and encourage others to do the same. Perhaps one of them is secretly a Nielson family!
Write the network
Express your passion for the show but be respectful and polite. Everyone responds best to courtesy. E-mails are nice but personal snail-mail is even better. Some fans are sending packages of Sour Patch Kids while others are sending postcards with “Viz Allati” (from season two) written on them.

this show had a good story line, the only down fall of the show was its marketing. who’s brilliant idea was it to give kyle xy such a long hiatus? WHY DONT PPL REALIZE SHOWS FAIL WHEN YOU DO THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! and all the fans this show got, they could atleast give the show a proper finale. the finale sucked so much and left us all for more. I HOPE ANOTHER NETWORK PICKS UP THE SHOWS AND KICKS ABC FAMILY TO THE CURB.
Kyle XY was a show that we always looked forward to. It’s a shame that ABC Family didn’t make this show a higher priority when it was at it’s peak ratings and schedule a new episodes within a reasonable period of time. I think they lost a lot of viewers with seasons being so far apart, and lack of advertising when they did decide to do a new season. I think that ABC Family killed this show. We would still like to see another network (that would schedule new seasons regularly) pick up Kyle XY and at the very least… Read more »
I loved kyle XY every monday i would be soo excited to watch it. Kyle xy is one of those shows that never gets boring always a suprise in every episode.( and not a boring suprise that some shows do always a good suprise that keeps you on the edge of your seat) When I saw the comercial series finale for kyle XY. I was so upset. Then i thought well the finale will be good. WRONG It ended with so many cliff hangers. Come on writers ending it with kyle choking his supposed brother. All i ask is either… Read more »
this show was great!!!! it shouldn’t have ended so soon. there are now a lot of holes left open to the story. if you gave it atleast one more season to complete all storylines in the show, that would be awsome.the last episode was good. it left a nice big ” i cant wait to see the next season”. oh wait we cant see the next season cause it was ended way too soon !!!!! please bring it back. my daughter and i watch it every monday. i watch the show over usa’s ” wwe monday night raw ” .… Read more »
This is such a wonderful show which brings together the daily issues life has to offer families today. Mix that with the unexplained and it’s a winning combination. I can’t understand why ABC would cancel it this way without at least some proper closure. I had sooooooo been looking forward to this new season and I’m upset there won’t be any more episodes to look forward to. Please bring the show back or at least give the chance for another network to continue what was never finished properly!!!
Me and my mom watch Kyle XY as a Monday night thing. And it was just getting good. What the hell were you thinking? They didn’t end anything.
BRING KYLE XY BACK!!
i am from the philippines
please return the kyle xy we really want this show!
i dont know why you cancelled it!!
today is my flippin 19th birthday on March 19. so you gotta bring kyle xy back and it is the best tv show ever along with the tv show LOST. kyle xy is so creative. he is like the modern super man. 😀
Kyle xy (and lost and monk) are my 3 favorite tv shows!!! please bring kyle xy back!
SPOILER: it can’t just end with cassidy saying he is kyle’s brother and that they have the same mother : Grace who works at Latnock. Her name was written in Adam’s journal. and why did cassidy kill Sarah? (only because she didn’t agree with his experiment?)
I LOVE THIS SHOW I AM 42 YEARS OLD AND THIS A GOOD FAMILY SHOW. I WATCH THIS SHOW FOR WHAT IT BRINGS, AND I DON’ T WANT IT TO END. I HOPE ANOTHER NETWORK PICKS IT UP AND SHOW ABC WHAT THEY HAVE LOST. I HOWP ANOTHER NETWORK PICKS IT UP PLEASE!!!!!!

I feel bad that i didn’t have a chance to watch the show live more often. I usually have things going on on monday nights, so i just record it on my DVR or watch it online. it’s the only show that i watch so avidly. I realize, like many others, that all shows must end at some point, but i don’t believe now was the most opportune time. I think it would be appropriate for an extra episode or two to wrap up the loose ends properly. It seems to me like the more professional thing to do.
Save Kyle XY it’ll become really bad if you cancel this show!
