New To Me


Since new Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, and Heroes episodes are still on hold due to the US writers' strike, I decided to scout for a new series to watch.
And here comes Kyle XY (Official Site). So far I have only seen the first five episodes but I must say, the story is very good. The plot moves you. It brings you in.

Plot:
Kyle is a sixteen-year-old boy, found in a forest area outside of Seattle, naked and without any memories of an earlier life. Kyle is like a newborn baby in his lack of knowledge of human social life: He doesn’t know the simplest things, like how to eat or drink, and cannot communicate with others easily in the beginning. When Kyle walks naked into a nearby town, he is picked up by the police. As they cannot find his records, he is taken to a juvenile detention facility, where it is discovered he doesn’t have a navel. Nicole Trager, a psychologist, is interested in Kyle because of his gift for art and his innocence. She realizes Kyle doesn’t belong behind bars and brings him to her home while the police look for his family. The series follows Kyle and the Trager family as Kyle develops socially and searches for answers to his past.


Somehow it is a good thing that I still have a handful of thesis work to finish -- or else I would be spending hours (or maybe days!) watching.
