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 was awesome. I would look forward to every episode everytime there was a new one. It was put together SO well. It was by far one of the best tv shows out there. The series finale was a huge dissapointment. It was no different than another ordinary episode. The only difference is that there will be no more episodes. This is rediculous. Please put it back on. I wont look bad at abc family if they go back on thier words of “final episodes.” just bring it back and give it a proper good ending it deserves. This… Read more »
I looooove this show!
It’s not fair that good shows go away.
It’s not time for Kyle XY to go.
There’s soooo much to the story and if you stop now, the whole show would’ve been for nothing.
If you really want to find a show to cancel on ABC Family, I think that there should be a country wide vote.
Save Kyle XY!
Good post, save Kyle!
Bring back Kyle. ABC Family is making a big mistake and I hope another network picks up the Kyle XY series.
PLEASE Do NOT cancel this show – it’s one of the only things on TV worth watching and I wait for it every week. The story lines are just developing don’t cut it short come on do the right thing!!
Kyle XY is the best show I’ve ever seen. There’s no question about it that the cancellation stinks. I really don’t want it to go away. I am very very very sad 🙁 Kyle doesn’t deserve to be cancelled either. It was the ABC starter show and caused all the great success. You don’t bite the hand that feeds you! If people didn’t watch it, it’s because they wanted more thrills, not because they didn’t care anymore. There’s a lot of reasons why people had to stop watching or chose to, but there’s no reason to take it out on… Read more »
