Sky was thrown under the bus and then had it backed over him repeatedly in order to prop up Rex & Gigi. That was absolutely awful to watch. At least the scenes with Roxy & Sky were tempered with some compassionate writing and good acting. That said, I enjoyed the scenes from Tuesday's episode with Kyle, Oliver, Layla, Christian and Sierra Mist. Very cute. Oh I know, that one of the major peeves I have with soaps when they murder a character like that. I for one find Rex and Gigi very annoying and boring. But since they were saved from the bloodbath that was OLTL over pairings that actually are believable and that have chemistry. I feel sorry for Sky and am going to pretend that he had a happily ever after all. With the boys going at least their scenes with Sierra are adorable and sweet. I really hope they let her go to sleep soon, she's had a very big day and she needs her rest.

OMG. "Girl, we have to throw you a baby shower" Come on. Layla is THE BOMB. I love how even though Layla wants to smack the shine off his pecs, Christian still wants to follow her around hoping she'd stop being mad at him.
Why in the world would anyone want to watch GIGI and REX when they could have more loving, adorable Kyle constantly talking Oliver off a ledge and loving his man unconditionally but still checking him when he's being stupid.
Christian, Roxy, Layla, Kyle, Oliver, David Vickers, Schyler, Rachel are all people I could watch all day long with a sprinkling of Dorian and Vicki for old times sake.
Am I the only one who felt 70thousand more watts of chemistry between Rachel and Schyler every time they were in a scene together than either of them ever had with their respective love interests? I kept wanting them to kiss anytime they leaned in close.
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND how the show could want to jess/tess/bessmess with Christian and Layla who are hot like fire whether they are fighting or flirting. I do not get the appeal of Jessica (and her posse of alters) and Brody is cute but dead wood boring.
Oliver with that baby is just the sweetest thing. He says "My daughter" with the same wonder, love and disbelief and pride he said "My boyfriend"
OLTL needs to have its ass kicked. I even like Ford (though Langston and Starr make me chew nails). Put him back in some scenes with Chryla and Kish.
Roxy and Schyler figuring out their relationship could be wonderful, funny, engaging tv. Their scenes were beautiful and full of so much potential.
GUH!!!

I know, I honestly don't think OLTL is much longer for this world. With people being angry about the huge cast layoffs and the insane story lines of teenage Jess and cringe worthy Rex and Gigi that a lot of people are tuning out.

I just dont get it.... Why make this disaster with a soap so great like OLTL?... Two months ago they have a superb storyline, one of the most beatiful gay couple and now everything is awful... Kish gone, Sky gone and.... Gigi stay?... Why?

That's a pretty picture right there. I'm in love with that baby. She's so tiny. She seems to like Scott a lot. I wonder if they had fun with all the babies. Kyle was very easy with them.

Well, it's over. I'm On the one hand, it was an exciting ride to watch this story develop: the acting by KISH and friends. Although I do not like to delve into personal 'interaction' with 'stars' along these lines, I must say that knowing Scott is an Out Actor really added to my enthusiasm for this show. On the other hand, the main stories were so pathetic, the 'main actors' so bad (other than the real old hands on the show) I feel a sense of relief I am no longer going to watch it----ever again. Now, I must turn to overseas yet again for any kind of serious Gay drama---one where stereotypes and tongue-in-cheek portrayals are a thing of the past. I can only hope that Scott and Brett work together again in some other venue and they take up again similar roles. Whichever network makes that happen automagickally gets my attention. So long, KISH. I'll miss you. Geoff

That was their goodbye episode, it's like more insult to injury. Because of course first Sky and now Kish have to be used to boost the love of Gigi and Rex. Ugh I dislike those two more and more. They are the ones leaving, they should at least get a proper send off focusing on them as a family with Sierra Rose. Not a speech of how wonderful Gigi is. This is another reasons why I have turn off on US soaps long ago. I too will be watching the shows from overseas, thank god for the internet. Goodbye Kish, may you have happy existence in fan fiction. And thank you to Scott and Brett for giving us such a great story to watch.

Moving over from spoiler discussion thread since it isn't a spoiler and the linked commentary is worth a read: Well, Kish were axed months ago and it seems "traditional viewers" didn't come to the show, in fact OLTL is reaching new lows week after week (and right now it's behind the cancelled ATWT). What happens to Brett and Scott still makes me angry, and after ATWT cancellation it won't be any gay characters on american soaps. I find this article on daytimeconfidential about kish daytimeconfidential.com/2010/07/13/is-daytime-committed-to-gay-and-lesbian-storytelling

Okay, that promo is hilarious. Are they hot? LOL OLTL is so wonderfully blatant with its peddling of man meat. I approve!

They're not. Show is not good. Ratings reflect that.

Bastards.... FU frons. I've been saying that they got rid of a lot of their stars and kept people like Gigi and Rex who couldn't act their way out of a paperbag. IMHO, I still think #Kish was popular and they didn't want it to be. They wanted ratings to go down.
