Anyone watch this new show? It's X-Files like and looks kind of interesting.

PS: Kyle is not Human. He fell out of the sky. :-)

Frank I think you're just saying it's x-files because krycheck is in it playing his same character from x-files. I kinda liked it but it felt kinda slow or maybe more like it wasn't really sure which direction to go in, we know from the beginning that the kids special do we need to keep seeing him prove it to everyone around? I guess it's better then most other things out now and I did watch the whole episode but I'll be curious to see what the next episodes bring as to whether or not it's a good show.

Well, it's only a pilot. Perhaps it will get better and paced faster.

From the Hollywood Reporter:

Technical credits are fine, though the production, filmed in Canada, looks like it adhered to a tight budget.

I read that only 10 episodes were shot and they were shot last summer.

It is intended to be suitable for the entire family to watch--hence, it airs on the ABC Family channel and not ABC as a primetime show. Given that, I thought the writing was very fresh and pretty clever. It will be interesting to see if the writers can continue this off over the course of season one.
