Although
Matt Dallas has already positively established himself on television with his highly rated series
Kyle XY, he admits that being a fan of other shows and actors enables him to deal with the fame that comes along as the lead star of the science fiction series.
In an interview with AOL, the 24-year-old actor has revealed his favorite shows, besides
Kyle XY. These include both award-winning series like
Lost and
Heroes.
“It was a little overwhelming at first, and it was kind of crazy but, you know, I get it,” the
Kyle XY actor told AOL. “Like, I'll be at a party and someone from
Lost will be there, and I'll get all excited and be like 'I want to meet that person.' So I can definitely relate to it. But it is funny sometimes, like you'll meet fans and they'll notice little things like which hand you open the door with, and it's cool to see the theories they come up with [about the show.]”
Like other fans of
Lost and
Heroes, Matt Dallas is also eager to meet its cast members and tries to catch up on every episode as much as he can.
When asked if he has really approached his favorite actors from both series, he said, “I did. I met
Josh Holloway, Hurley [
Jorge Garcia] and
Daniel Dae Kim. I made my publicist introduce me to them because I wanted to meet them, and from
Heroes, actually I have a friend who's on the show,
Zachary Quinto, who plays Sylar. We've been friends since before either of us were on TV shows.”
”He's awesome, and he's great on the show. I'm always trying to coax him into DVDs of the show for me to watch. I kind of fell behind [because of work], so I need to catch up with what happened at the end of the season,” he said referring to his friend Quinto.
Meanwhile, fans can catch Matt Dallas in the second season of
Kyle XY every Monday at 8/7c on ABC
