Fans of "One Life to Live's" gay couple Kyle Lewis (Brett Claywell) and Oliver Fish (Scott Evans), collectively known as "Kish," have planned a Times Square rally to protest their favorite characters being written off of the soap.The fans, who call themselves the "Kish Army," will gather outside ABC's "Good Morning America" studios starting at 6:30 a.m. ET on Friday, March 26. The Save Kish website, which is helping to spread awareness about the event, accuses ABC of "giving in to bigots."
Protesters are encouraged to make signs and wear t-shirts that support the actors or characters, and organizers are expected to appear in the "Good Morning America" studio audience as well. Fans plan to not only support "Kish," but also gay representation in the media in general, and gay story lines on daytime television.
Never underestimate the power of TV fans in large numbers!

ABC also ruined Bianca on All My Children, who is a lesbian and they never really gave her a realistic relationship. They ruined her character so much that the actress who played her will not come back and has signed with the Young and the Restless. Bianca was such a great character and ABC ruined her because they wouldn't respect the gay life.
Lol, don't **** off the gays. I'm not gay, but I know it's not a good idea.
KISH ARMY ALL THE WAY!!! GO FANS! GO FANS!

yeah, I watch OLTL and when I heard the news they were being cut, it sounded really bizarre.
I hope this goes better than the "save guiding light rally" it was actually proven that the network had the "rallyers" moved out of the way of the camera, were they wouldnt be seen.
Ron Old - welcome to the 2000's. us gay people aren't going anywhere, get used to it.
Used to watch One Life to Live, but when the gay characters were forced down the viewers throats (no pun) I just couldnt stomach it and stopped watching it, seems like i'm not the only one.
It's pretty sad how people can watch a man try to rape/impregnate his own daughter & think that's perfectly okay, but have issues with the only functional, "normal," couple on this show - Kish. Just saying.
GO KISH ARMY! This is amazing!
Once Evan left it's all been downhill.
