What happens

Kyle XY is an American science fiction television series created by Eric Bress and J. Mackye Gruber and produced by ABC Studios. The central character is a teenage boy (Matt Dallas) who awakens naked in a forest outside Seattle, Washington, with amnesia and no belly button. He is taken in by a family and given the name Kyle. The series follows Kyle as he tries to solve the puzzles of who he is and why he has no memory before that day. Although set in Seattle, the series was filmed in the Vancouver, British Columbia area. The series premiered June 26, 2006, on the ABC Family cable channel. The series ran for three seasons, ending on March 16, 2009. The final episode featured several cliffhangers, which were eventually resolved in a special feature on the third season DVD. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
