top 5 reasons you'll heart 'the middleman'
Posted Tue, 07/15/2008 - 08:29 — Kyle XYBummed "Kyle XY" is on hiatus? Don't be! There's another adorable hero out there -- actually, right here on ABC Family-- and you're gonna love him. Tons of "Kyle XY" fans have already discovered "The Middleman", so what are you waiting for?
Here are the Top 5 reasons to check out "The Middleman".
5. An Unlikely Hero
The Middleman, like Kyle, isn't your average hero. No cape. No bodysuit. No swearing. But he does have a belly button. (At least, we think he does.)
4. Mysteries
"Kyle XY" has Latnok. "Middleman" has O2STK (aka the Organization Too Secret to Know). Although you get the sense that Latnok could be at the root of all that is evil on "Kyle XY", O2STK are definitely the good guys. Still, they know how to keep a secret -- and where there's a secret, there's a mystery. Like, for instance, the mysterious disappearance of Wendy's dad. See, you're already coming up with conspiracy theories!
3. Troubled Love
"Kyle XY" loves Amanda. The Middleman is crushing on Lacey. Kyle acted on his emotions and got the girl -- then, er, lost her. Only time will tell if the Middleman will get his girl.
2. Sidekicks
Technically, Wendy is the Middleman's sidekick, but we're thinking Wendy is to the Middleman what Lori is to Kyle. So, that leaves Noser and Declan. Two really cool guys. The biggest difference? Declan gets out more.
And the number one reason you just may enjoy the show ...
1. Ida vs. Tom Foss
Ida (a short-tempered robot) is the Middleman's liaison to O2STK. Tom Foss is the bad-guy-turned-good-guy who's the link between Kyle and his past. They're both cranky. They both look like they could use a vacation. But Tom Foss is actually human. We think.
Already watching "The Middleman"? What's your fave thing about it?

you can't compare the middleman to kyle xy...this doesn't belong on the kyle xy homepage

Good luck with your new show.
The Kyle XY Fans would really, really like a Kyle XY update - preferably a Rachel on the Set video, please.
When does filming of Kyle XY Season 3 finish?
Will there be more episodes added to Season 3?
Is there going to be a Kyle XY Season 2 DVD?
Are there any personal appearances coming up?
What Kyle XY "schwag" is being given away at ComicCon?
Can we have the online viewing parties for Kyle XY activated, please?
When is the "Search for 781229" game coming back -- did anyone feed Thrasher, Cooper's fish, while Coop's been in captivity. (We're all very worried!

abc What is your main page for? Isn't that where you put your commercials? Middleman is plastered all over it, what the deal? He doesn't belong here, and we don't want him. We want KyleXY.
I survived the forum migration.
Outragious of you ABC Family!!! You place a Middleman blog on our Kyle XY site and then assert that we the fans of Kyle XY are "on board" with The Middleman. Not true for most of us. I think the Middleman is a stupid show, and I'm angry to see it in Kyle XY's time slot. On top of that you make us wait until January 09 to see season 3 of Kyle XY. Shame on you!!!!
Oh, I must add: No one on the Middleman is hot, like Matt Dallas. I'll just look at pictures of Matt when the Middleman comes on in Kyle's time slot.
I coudn't even get through the first episode of The Middleman before I passed out from STUPID show fever.
Foss is hot.
Ida is not.
Please remove this sickening Middleman blog from our beloved Kyle XY site. It's stinking up the page.
Foss is hot.
Ida is not. Or should I say snot?
Please do not post that stuff here, that is what the ads on the top and the sides are for. While middleman is not a bad show, it does not compare to Kyle XY. Kyle XY is full of drama, mystery, and is written with a different level of depth. Middleman is a silly show, which is fine, it's supposed to be a silly show, but Kyle XY is not. Besides being scifi, the two shows are not at all similar.

Best Fan is right!!!! This is wierd!!!!!!!!
Maybe this is a clue about the new season? O.O
I watched one episode of Middleman and decided it's a waste of airtime. So I add my dissenting response to your premise that "Tons of 'Kyle XY' fans have already discovered 'The Middleman' " is a positive statement.
I believe we have made it clear the answer is no thank you.
So, ABC, Will KyleXY be advertised on The Middleman's Blog? On The Middleman's Home Page?

Movie Chick had four comments. What is going on. Now you are deleting our comments? Who gets this picture? Middleman vs KyleXY, NO COMPARISON, WE VOTE KYLEXY, NOW AND FOREVER!

MIDDLEMAN, YOU DON'T BELONG HERE, GO TO YOUR OWN BLOG ON YOUR HOME PAGE, THIS BLOG IS FOR THE KYLEXY SHOW.
I survived the forum migration.
I have to agree with the others that this blog does not belong on the Kyle XY page. Keep Middleman on the abcfamily homepage or on it's own blog page. I actually like Middleman but it in no way is comparable to Kyle XY. This was a mistake that needs to be fixed. We are desperate for news of Kyle XY. We need more pics, interviews or maybe videos from Rachael. SOMETHING to help us through this long spell of no Kyle XY. Even re-runs would be good to see. That said, please remove this blog from the Kyle XY page and put it where it belongs, the Middleman blog.

9 Days Until Kyle XY Returns (1/12/2009 9pm EST)
OK, Foss is the best, the rest!!!
I don't understand the fuss. So we got a commercial for a useless product. Just ignore it and it will go away... (the show I mean)
Hopefully anyway. It's a waste of air time as Pod said. They're trying to promote garbage and unfortunately it came to our home page.
Don't get mad, just realise ABC is desperate because it realised it made a mistake in airing middleman because NO ONE is watching it... No one with over a single digit IQ that is...
The sig is that I have no sig... but I have been with ABC since 09/01/06.
Still a Matt Swooner!
But Chris Pine rocks my boat too!!
Joined the various cast clubs. I forget actual names, sorry.
Matt can butter my popcorn any time he wants!
Cut out The Middleman and blog some Kyle info!

9 Days Until Kyle XY Returns (1/12/2009 9pm EST)
I agree they need to show some old episodes or something!!!!!! It is not fair that Greek only has like 3 months between seires and Kyle XY will not be on untill January!!!!!!! We Need Some New Kyle.....I need some new Kyle...(T-T)
Please don't encourage us to watch that. I'd rather be bummed that Kyle XY is on hiatus than watch that show.
And yes, why not show Kyle XY reruns while we wait for it to return like I don't know...in January 2009?

THE BLOG IS FOR KYLEXY INFORMATION
If I opened any other Home Site I would expect to see the main blog providing information about that particular site.
I survived the forum migration.
I agree, this page is for Kyle XY. It'd be nice to see more news on Kyle XY, maybe a blog entry or a behind the senses video. Please just post Kyle XY information. This isn't the place for a middle man blog post.
chuman in a cup is ma favoriot.
sue makes it delisyoso!
Ohh I forgot that bad words couldn't be wroten here :/ Anyway I want KYLE XY BACK!!!
Yes, I am bummed that Kyle XY is on hiatus but filling my Kyle viewing time with Middleman isn't going to help matters. Instead of creating a show that is like Kyle XY in the ways stated above, why not just bring Kyle XY back sooner for the fans? Why do we have to wait until January!? And this blog doesn't belong on this page. We want more Kyle XY news, please.
This blog doesn't belong here unless you post a Kyle XY blog on Middleman's site with info about season 3. Anyway, Middleman is a poor substitute for Kyle XY. Bring Kyle back sooner.
bring Kyle Back!!!!!!! *please* <3
I agree middleman does not belong on the Kylexy site When will you put season 2 on DVD give us a chance to watch Kylexy till season 3 comes out 6 months to wait is too long Love you Kylexy Saw a show on the hallmark channel called (Every Second Counts) starred the girl that played Andy on Kylexy. Any one else see it It was good
Who would put this on the Kyle XY site? Wonder if they just want us to yry and waatch the program. I just want Kyle XY to return.
Why would you ask a question like that. I love watching Kyle XY. But the other show does not have the same actions and thoughts you get why watching Kyle. You are always wondering what can or will he do next. We are waiting for Kyle to return soon. There are to many questions,ideas and wondering what is next. So how can you ask us to watch the program you asked us about. Stay with Kyle!!!!!!!!!!! Middleman does not belong .
I would be willing to give it a try, but I do not want to start with the fourth or fifth episode. i cannot find where to view the earlier ones.
I know on the Kyle site (and I love this) we can go back and watch any episode.

I think Kyle XY is a way better show than Middle Man. I saw the first episode of middleman and I can say just by watching the 1st episode I do not like this show. As were when I saw the first episode of Kyle XY I was hooked!

Nice advertisement... Just wish others could see that this is a good use of advertising and not a ploy. There are many that haven't seen or heard of the show and it only promotes peeps to check out the show. You may not like the show but at least you had a chance to know about it. I haven't seen or heard of this show and it was nice to hear about it. Doesn't mean i like it but at least I learned about it from here...
