Oliver Fish (often referred to onscreen as Fish) is a fictional
character on the ABC daytime drama One Life to Live. He was portrayed
by Scott Evans from January 15, 2008, through April 12, 2010. The June
2009 announcement that the character would be romantically linked to
another man in an ongoing story line came to wider attention when
Patricia Mauceri (Carlotta Vega) was replaced after reportedly voicing
personal religious objections to her character's involvement in the
plot.In the summer of 2009, Oliver is paired with Kyle Lewis, an old
friend from college. The pair had been romantically involved, but
Oliver broke off the relationship for fear of upsetting his
conservative family. Oliver comes out to his parents in September, and
starts dating Kyle in November. The couple were written out of the
show in April 2010, with ABC explaining that the storyline "did not
have the appeal we hoped it would."In the summer of 2009, Oliver is

brought in as Oliver for five episodes in January 2008, Evans returned
more than 30 times over the next year-and-a-half, saying in a June
2009 interview with AfterElton.com that his appearances had been
"building up" since the beginning of 2009. Oliver played a supporting
role in several storylines, and was briefly linked romantically to two
female regular characters, Layla Williamson (Tika Sumpter) and Stacy
Morasco (Crystal Hunt).On June 15, 2009, the openly gay Evans
confirmed rumors that Oliver would be going through a "coming out
story" and hinted at the character's possible past and future romantic
entanglements with another man, Kyle Lewis (Brett Claywell). "I think
right now it's going to be a story of his journey and how he's dealing
with all this stuff ... he's doing everything in his power to kind of
put this [being gay] on the backburner and not let it be a part of his
life, but with Kyle in the picture, it's just coming to the
forefront." TV Guide later quoted Sue Johnson, vice president of
daytime programming at ABC, saying: Oliver Fish Top Movies & Young Movies
