Battle of the Network Gays: March 19, 2010

In this week's Battle of the Network Gays, Brothers & Sisters' Kevin & Scotty square off against Southland's Officer John Cooper, As the World Turn's Luke & Dr. Reid Oliver, and Ugly Betty's Justin Suarez. Who should be our Gay of the Week?

More on this week's nominees and why they were chosen after the break.

• Brothers & Sisters' Kevin & Scotty.

Why? These perennial favorites are back thanks to an above average episode and a sweet scene that indicates these two still have an active sex life. Yes, they're still hot for one another even after settling down, marrying, and trying to start a family. Kevin wants afternoon nookie? Very cute. Check out this week's hilarious recap by Steven Frank.

• Southland's Officer John Cooper

Why? We didn't find out much about his personal life this week, but coming to the rescue of his partner by calling in a favor with a fireman friend makes Officer Cooper (a.k.a. "Cuddlybear") a hero in our book. And makes us wonder just why this fireman owed him a favor!

• As the World Turns' Luke Snyder & Dr. Reid Oliver
  

Why? Dr. Reid came out last week, and Luke finally broke up with that sad sack blind guy he'd been supposedly dating for like forever. That clears the way for these two arch nemeses to get together. Wednesday's episode finally gave us a little taste of their potential as a couple. Favorite line? "My back is not to the wall, it's to you!"

• Ugly Betty's Justin Suarez

Why? Do you even have to ask after Wednesday night's episode? Sweetest Ugly Betty moment ever. We're so sad knowing the show is winding down, but at least we know our little Justin is gonna be all right.

Vote for your favorite by noon EDT Monday. And be sure to check back next Tuesday on the blog to see which network gay our readers have carried to glory!
