Kish last airdate to be April 12th- Fish finds out he is the daddy and then what?

As every one in soapland knows Kyle (Brett Claywell) and Fish (Scott Evans) are set to exit One Life to Live on-air in mid-April. But, TV Guide Magazine reports today, as we all have known, that for our favorite gay couple Kish, there’s still some plot before we have to say our sad goodbyes on April 12th, their last airdate, which has been confirmed by ABC. Kyle will be back on air solo for one episode on April 16th.
As previously announced on March 29, Fish will find out he’s the father of baby Sierra Rose. Scott Evans (Fish) tells TV Guide the fans are upset over the police officer’s inability (thus far) to deal with the elephant in the room, that he could be the baby daddy of Sierra Rose. “There are a lot of angry fans saying, ‘Why doesn’t Fish just man up and be responsible?‘ But they’re missing the bigger picture. This is a scary thing Fish isn’t ready for. He’s just out of the closet. He’s just started a new relationship. People take nine months to prepare to welcome a child into their lives. Fish isn’t mentally prepared to take this next step forward. He’s from this conservative upbringing and there’s a part of him that thinks a kid should have a father and a mother. I don’t necessarily agree with that. As long as you have parents who love you, it doesn’t matter what sex they are.”But, for Fish, well… he can’t just lose all the things he was taught his whole life in just a matter of a few months. I wish everybody would give Fish a break here. He still has unresolved hang-ups about his family—especially his father—and that takes time to get over. A lot of the gay fans don’t see it that way, but if gays want acceptance, we also have to accept gay people who think differently from the rest of us—and then try to change their minds!”

Lisa Rinna Would Be Down to Reprise Her Role of Taylor McBride in ‘Melrose Place’ Reboot
When Lisa Rinna departed her popular role of Billie Reed on Days of our Lives back in 1995, her next major role would be a jump to primetime and the soapy Melrose Place.
In 1996, Lisa was introduced as new character Taylor McBride and stayed with the Fox young adult sudser for three seasons. Now in 2024, with the recent reveal that a Melrose Place revival is the works with Heather Locklear, Daphne Zuniga and Laura Leighton all on board to reprise their signature roles, would Rinna board the project should it come to fruition?
Speaking with PEOPLE, Rinna expressed, “Well, gosh, I’ve heard about it. I haven’t been approached or anything, but I would love to see what Taylor McBride is up to 25 years later. Wouldn’t that be something?”

OG Melrose Place fans know that in story, Taylor moved to the Melrose Place apartment building with her husband Kyle played by Rob Estes. However, Taylor had her eye on Dr. Peter Burns played by former GH star Jack Wagner (ex-Frisco). But, by the time she had moved to the apartment complex, Peter had married tough as nails ad executive, Amanda Woodward, played by Heather Locklear.
Recalling her time on Melrose Place, Rinna added that it, “was one of my greatest and most fun acting experiences, playing Taylor and working with Heather and the whole crew.” Rinna also noted, “So if they need a Taylor McBride appearance, they know who to call. I’m around.”

The new Melrose Place is in development at CBS Studios. In the premise of the reboot, the Melrose Place residents reunite after the death of one of their friends, “but the pressure cooker of a reunion soon uncovers old traumas, rekindles old romances, reignites old resentments, and reveals new secrets… throwing our characters into chaotic drama that’s reminiscent of the past, but with a much more modern perspective.”
So, would you want to see Lisa Rinna reprise her Melrose Place role as Taylor McBride? Comment below.

Sean Kanan’s Stepdaughter, Juliet Vega, to Appear on The Bold and the Beautiful
Coming up on this Friday’s April 26th episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Juliet Vega, the stepdaughter to Sean Kanan will make an appearance on the CBS daytime drama series in the role of Michele.
Keeping it “All in the Family”, the character is named after Juliet’s real-life mother, and Kanan’s wife, writer and producer, Michele Kanan.
Back in 2012, Sean married Michele Vega and thus began their blended family which included his daughter, Simone, and Michelle’s children, Peter, Gigi, and her twins, Annie and Juliet.

According to a B&B show spokesperson, Juliet’s B&B character is intentionally named Michele in honor of her mother and Sean’s wife.
While we don’t know how “Michele” shows up in story, it is the same episode that Clint Howard makes an appearance as well seemingly tied to the case of where in the world is Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown)?

We can’t imagine that Juliet wouldn’t get the opportunity to mix it up on-screen with her stepdad, Sean Kanan. Previously, the two acted together in Sean’s streaming series Studio City, where she played the role of Delilah and he played soap actor, Sam Stevens. In it, Delilah is the bio-daughter Sam never knew he had.
So, looking forward to seeing Juliet on B&B and how ‘Michele’ turns up in the story? Comment below.

Accrdg to TVGC, OLTL offered Evans a contract but Evans declined. Thus, he didn’t want to be tied down to the show should there be other offers. Not wanting to sign on w/ OLTL is all the more reason why he shouldn’t complain of OLTL’s axing him or using these so called “tactics” since he didn’t take their offer anyway. It must have gotten difficult for OLTL to work around his schedule since he’s not signed w/ OLTL. So that gave OLTL even more reasons to axe him. This kish drama is going to reach its boiling pt at the rally.
LOL… Is it ironic that you think I am KISH fan? Just read all recent soap dramas and news. Of course, your lovely comment stands out .
I am an daytime soap fan but am amazing what you are doing. That is all. Do what you do as I say.. 🙂
keep going as you want…
Good job.. Bottomchef…!!
You’re welcome!
Scott Evans has never been offered a contract with OLTL. He even teasingly remarked in an open interview once that his mother would likely have a contract with the show before he would. Nelson Branco consistently makes up garbage and it is quite well known that you can’t believe anything he puts in print. TV Guide would be smart to get rid of such a rumor and “gossip” monger and find a REAL journalist that will stick to the facts. Even posters from Canada can’t stand NB and say not to believe anything he prints. He is well known for putting out false statements in his columns, so why should anyone in the US believe him, when people in his own country don’t? I, personally, prefer to take it straight from the “horse’s mouth” (i.e. in this case, Scott Evans personally).
Really? That’s interesting Jeri. Evans should categorically state that he was not offered one by OLTL to clarify this issue.
As straight married women, I wonder why you, BOTTOMCHEF, have so much time to find all the information about or against KISH and also to post your comments or opinions everytime new topic in here.
Strange?
Work for ABC?
Hater for KISH? …
Very interesting!!
Keep doing what you are doing, BOTTOMCHEF….
LOL Susan from Arizona!
No I don’t work for ABC, but this other Kish fan thought I was Frons’s brother! LOL I guess the kish fans are into conspiracy theories. I’m an avid soap fan like many ppl on the soap websites, although many kish fans seem to be fans only of kish, and are unfamiliar w/ the nature of soaps or w/ storylines other than kish. So their perspectives might be limited only to kish. I don’t hate kish. I wrote on here that I liked Claywell’s acting in Kish since he carried the pairing bec Evans was complete crap as Fish. But the 2 of them have been too talkative to the media regarding their oustings, yet you don’t hear a thing from Duplaix or Clifton, while Hunt had 1 statement in a column. Evans has been on twitter, youtube and out talking about the kish axing. Claywell’s been on zap2it, daytime confidential, movieline. And prior to that, Evans was in instinct and out, while both were interviewed here and on welovesoaps. I think it’s getting too publicity hungry for both of them.
BTW, Evans and Claywell are acting like Keith Coulouris. He was on ATWT and when he was written out, all he did was write unflattering things to his fans abt ATWT, CBS and TPTB on his website’s message board. Has he ever been cast in a soap opera since? Evans and Claywell should learn from the classy Eden Reigel. Evans should not have tweeted abt OLTL’s “tactic” and Claywell should not have mentioned that he felt like OLTL kinda threw him under the bus. I don’t think that’d ingratiate them to ABC, other networks or other acting gigs. They should have taken the high road like Eden Reigel did w/ AMC. They let Reigel excellently act out Bianca’s coming out storyline w/ Susan Lucci, but AMC also let her act crap on AMC. Chuck Pratt actually had an interview where he blamed Rianca for not working bec Reigel left AMC. When asked abt that, Reigel had nothing but kind words for AMC. Reigel has been a true trooper. Now she’s on Y&R, the number 1 soap, while AMC claims it wanted Reigel so now they’re looking to recast.
