Aa I hinted at on the chat thread, I read that the boys will be told by Lucinda's new homophobic man that people/donors will respond poorly to the charity Luke set up with the Grimaldi money if the true nature of their relationship came to light, so Noah & Luke are asked to hide it. Gee, that's a first. Oh wait... Regardless, I don't see how hiding it in public should change what they do in private but we all know how ATWT rolls when it comes to that aspect.

I know. It's not even JUST about the gay content/storyline. I find almost all of Hollyoaks other storylines interesting. IF I could understand German, I would follow the other storylines on Verbotene Liebe. Hell, if I could understand French, I would be following Les Bleus. How much fucking slower is Luke supposed to move?!??!?! ? I wish it weren't so, but I'm guessing Soap Opera Weekly is getting a lot of 'Because OURS suck ass!!!' responses to their foreign soap watching habits question right now.

They should just rename the show to "As the cockblock changes". Luke actually sounds nice and bitchy in the previews when he talks about going back into the closet. But of course we know already that Luke and Noah do "what's best for the foundation".

And they've found ANOTHER way to keep this going... How predictable!

Could "doing what's best for the foundation" somehow involve copious amounts of gay sex?
I know the show doesn't particularly care about characterization, but come on. Luke would never, ever go back into the closet, especially since he just jumped out of the Ameera-induced one Noah wanted him in. Shit, that money should be their ticket to freedom but somehow P&G manages to use it to neuter them again, forever, still. Fuck.

Then - apparently - Luke & Noah's relationship moves forward

How the hell can they start a foundation? Haven't they already used all the Grimaldi money for their weekly supplies of Valium, Xanax and other SSRIs? Or how else can two teenage guys be able to live absolutely sex-free???

Thanks, Lola for bringing the spoiler over to the forum. Okay, I know that this is just a 'rumor', but NUKE exchange rings, BEFORE they actually have sex?! I'm sorry, but I know that someone's going to take offense, but neither Luke NOR Noah are young women "saving themselves" for marriage. Who's writing this stuff for these two MALE characters? Ugh. I'm a 36 year-old straight and single female viewer and these things in their storyline, don't make any sense to me. The fact that NUKE are told that they have to be 'discreet' about their relationship astounds me, because Oakdale is not THAT big. Who in the hell resides in that town that DOESN'T know about them, as a couple? Let alone Luciano "Luke" Eduardo (Grimaldi) Snyder? He comes from a well-known family, ON BOTH SIDES. His grandmother, owns a company, that's supposedly known all over the country AND the world.

Maybe I'm getting told and zen about this, but, honestly, I can live with it, provided it actually goes somewhere and they get a storyline. I'm actually quite zen with Nuke at the moment. Yes, they are their typical more saintly than saints selves but well, by now these just are their personalities as established.
(of course it might help that I don't have to, you know, actually watch ATWT regularly)

This is just a rumour so far: "Sex is still off the table for them until October or early November, but another little bird just told me that a love scene has already been taped. Don't expect a lot of skin when this scene airs. It's more like a classic movie love scene than a steamy, daytime love scene and it fits their characters and their story very well." I could write this: Luke and Noah kissing ... cut away to photo of of Washington Monument/Leaning Tower of Pisa ... cut away to footage of flowers blooming ... cut away to footage of fireworks ... cut away to footage of Old Faithful/geyser. What? The "40-year-old Virgin" doesn't qualify as "classic movie love scene"? ;D ;D

Disclaimer: Though it is a rumor/speculation, I thought it safer to put in the spoiler section cause there may be some meat to this story cause I heard this a while back when he was first and the whisper won't go away. From today's The Suds Report: As The World Turns, Global/CBS — Roerig lights up Friday Nights • Poor Billy Magnussen! The successful recast now has big shoes to follow: Zach Roerig (ex-Casey; ex-Hunter, OLTL) has joined the cast of Friday Night Lights as Cash, a local rodeo star who lassoes Adrianne Palicki's Tyra. And here’s an interesting did-you-know fact: FNL star Scott Porter (Jason) subbed for Roerig as Casey for a week in 2006 when he was out in Hollywood working on a TV pilot. Congrats to Roerig. Once again, another ATWT star finds himself playing in the big leagues. • There’s a fascinating rumour spreading like wildfire online that hints Laurence Lau’s cougar-chasing Brian Wheatly is a friend of Dorothy’s. And get this: Brian may dig Luke more than the sexy and fabulous tycoon, Lucinda. Brian would be an idiot to choose Luke over Lucinda… because he’ll never get laid. But if you ask me, he does romantically and sexually protest a little too much around La Walsh.

But if you ask me, he does romantically and sexually protest a little too much around La Walsh. Though I do think there is something decidedly fishy about Brian and as yet we don't even know half of his "story", I'm a bit about this speculation. He seemed to be cougar chasing Lucinda before he'd even met Luke, maybe he's Bi and likes the odd fling with a twink now and again? I dunno - it still doesn't explain why his "resume" didn't stack up?

Brian is definately becoming an intriging character. Trying to figure out who is and how does he really factor in the Nuke story is fascinating. Is he really interested in Lucinda or is it Luke. and then in spoiler post it states that Brian makes an impression on Luke. What does this mean...

I think the impression was that Brian didn't sleep with Lucinda in her tent but choose to sleep with the boys. This is ATWT afterall, they don't do things big when it concerns Nuke. Yes the rest is all drama and sex but our young gays are treated with satin gloves.

I think Kevin returning is good news. I know many fans won't like it, because many still hate him, but I think Kevin could add some spice and drama to Nuke. Too bad it sounds like he's only going to be around for a short time.

I love that news!! I agree with you dkp about the spice and drama. It would be nice to see that spice and drama coming from a third guy (gay or not).

Yeah. I would love for Kevin to be gay and try to swoon Luke. I think a "gay triangle" could be interesting, but seeing as how Kevin's stay looks to be a short one, I doubt it. Which is fine, just as long things are interesting. Many things in place to make this story a good one, lets hope the headwriters, JP doesn't screw it up.

This character was before my time of watching ATWT, but anything that might get Nuke some more screentime is ok by me.
Question - are there any other characters that he could be brought back for which would mean he had very little to do with the Nuke story?

Post by amber80 on Sept 16, 2008 13:01:58 GMT -5
No, as in real ATWT habit most character don't really interact with each other. Kevin only interacted with Luke, Holden and Jade. (Jade was/is Luke's cousin, but sadly enough she was written off the show. Now that's a character I would love to see return! ) (You should watch the Luke coming out storyline Sheepie; that was really good. And I mean really good; the scene in which Luke finally comes out to his parents is one of my favorite ATWT scenes. Van really got to show his acting skills in that story line and as an exception it was actually well written for ATWT standards. Mark on YT has uploaded all the episodes Luke appears in, so that includes all the clips of the coming out sl. It's subtitled in Dutch because ATWT airs in the NL as well. We're just 1 year and 7 months behind. So no Noah here yet. )

Thanks Amber - I'll check it out - LukeVan Fan only goes as far back as Noah. I remember Jade from the beginning of the Nuke story but she left almost as soon as that storyline started.

WOW!! Kevin is coming back to Oakdale! It is going to be great to see how this story line is potrayed. I am just hoping the writers do not screw this up. I am a Nuke fan but I have wondered what happend to Kevin and if Luke is really over him. I am hoping that this will be a front burner storyline for the boys!

Kevin won't be around for long so I really doubt his return will be significant. It's just another storyline that will end when things start to get interesting. Typical ATWT
