I watched One Life to Live for 15 years but gave it up (along with All My Children) a number of years ago because the writing and acting just was not what it had once been. With all the talk of a gay love scene on One Life to Live, I had to check it out. I still love Dorian and Viki and am glad to see them still around, though I still wonder how I could have watched so many hours of this show. I was surprised with how the love story between Kyle and Oliver has played out and how their love scene was depicted.

I really shouldn’t be though as One Life to Live was also the show that brought a little known kid called Ryan Phillippe from out of nowhere to play gay teen Billy Douglas way back in the days when I would freak if I missed even a minute of “my shows.”

I was thrilled to see how the alphabet network let the scene play out, although I was a bit disappointed when they pulled back to the candle and faded. I watch too much cable I guess. But the real treat was the next episode today when Kyle and Oliver woke up and were interrupted by Roxie who barged in and thought nothing of two hot, naked men in bed on daytime TV. Hell, she wanted to join them! Who wouldn’t.
