Maybe officials at ABC felt that they had some making up to do after causing a bit of a stir for canceling Adam Lambert’s performances soon after his same-sex kiss at the American Music Awards. Who knows, but fact is that the same network now aired the first-ever gay sex scene on daytime U.S. Tv.
A quick kiss definitely didn’t do it anymore for ABC – as they pushed the boundaries just a little bit further last week. And to do this DURING Christmas vacation, when the kids were at home? I love it!
They aired an on-screen bed scene between characters Oliver (Scott Evans) and Kyle (Brett Claywell) in soap One Life to Live. Actor Scott Evans is gay in real life.
Check out the very sexy bedroom scene:
While soap opera sex scenes are par so for the course when it comes to straight couples, this is definitely a noteworthy scene as far as same-sex relationships go not only on soaps but network television at large.
A spokesperson for ABC says that the Logo network-owned site live-blogged the episode and received over 200 reader comments, some of the highest volume ever.
Not surprisingly, the reaction was entirely positive.
