The KISS is already on Perez Hilton! The buzz is HUGE.

I saw that. It was reported on Van's board. On youtube the video already has had over 20,000 views....

The perez hilton thing is huge..i bet the ratings will get a nice bump next week..wow Congrats ATWT for the positive buzz..

I think Monday's version might even be better than this one if that is even possible, I wonder if it is a longer kiss on Monday.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

My thoughts exactly

We can only hope Kevin. But I doubt it. But who knows.

I heard there are two versions of the kiss. The one shot on Monday was different.

That had to be one of the best scenes I have ever scene....It was done just right; not rushed over; not forced, but just right. Too bad the father will be a constant pest to Noah...I have a feeling he's going to stick around abit till the fallout...

I do too. I think he will be the one in between them and not Maddie. And how funny was Cheri and Elwood.

I'm not trying to be an ass in this thread, but I have to say something.

I just get the feeling that the Nuke fan-base wouldn't mind or care at all if Nuke were to take over this show and have it all about them. You know, like how the show is all about Gwen these days. Yes, I know Luke was back-burned for a while and his original storyline ended up being about other characters. Then again, most of ATWT's cast has been back-burned and almost never shown. I really don't get the devotion paid especially to Nuke. When I watch soaps, I don't watch for a couple, I watch for an ensemble. It's hard for me to root for one couple, when the show is a complete mess overall.

Also, though I adore Van, I find Jake especially to be a wooden actor. He has chemistry with Van yes, but in his outside scenes he's quite under-whelming. I've never not been able to get over the horrible set-up to this storyline and the continuous plot holes that continue to ruin it for me. Added to this, most long time viewers probably wouldn't care much for Van or Jake, since they are relatively new faces.

Overall, the show needs to work on multi-generational storytelling and for the sake of the Nuke storyline, they must keep everything consistent!

I get what you're saying, Y&R. I know people are excited about the story, but it's like the only reason there's buzz about this is because it's about two boys. I don't think there's any chemistry between Noah and Luke, and the lousy writing extends to this story. All the buzz on ET, etc, doesn't mean crap to me. The kiss came out of absolutely nowhere, and if it were a boy/girl hook up, we'd all be rolling our eyes.

Alvin, why dont you post what you hate about the show? You never post here. When you do you just say the stories suck and they have pot holes. Tell us why they suck and have pot holes. I would be interested in hearing your thoughts. I rarely see you even post on the ATWT threads and then you came and bashed the Nuke story so it took me by surprise.

I rarely post in any of the soap discussion threads anymore. CBSD has totally pissed me this past year. GL, Y&R, ATWT, and to a lesser extent B&B have all been complete messes this year. These shows are capable of so much better, yet they're hardly recognizable anymore. When I watch the entire CBS lineup, all I can do is shake my head. Look at these shows and look at what they've become. Y&R and ATWT will forever be my top two soaps, but I get more aggravation out of watching them these days, than any entertainment value.

I understand how you feel Alvin, you can only post about how much you dislike what's wrong with a show for so long before it becomes tedious.

Well as most people know I am for the whole show, so I am not just a Nuke fan, frankly I enjoyed most of the whole show today, I really thought the Dusty/Lily/Cheri scenes were nice and fresh, I also enjoyed most of the kidnapping stuff, though I am hoping it is coming to a close because that one has gone on long enough. I just really liked the feel to today's show. At this point I just live with the plot holes, because I have come to realize its never going to get better so I am just trying to enjoy what I can in my show. And for the record I would not want Nuke on every day either because they would get just as boring as Gwen gets during her five day a week stints. The most any character should be on is 3 days a week and that is all I am asking for Nuke is 3 days a week.

For me, I don't like most of what is going on with the show. I get the spoilers each week and go "damn, not again..."

Right now, the only storyline I'm remotely enjoying is the Luke/Noah story. I follow the story through YouTube edits. I wish the entire show could hold my attention, but it doesn't. I'd rather get my eyes dilated and walk outside with no sunglasses.

See I loved ATWT way before Luke and his sexuality came into the picture. So I dont necessarliy watch for him and Noah. But lately thats the only thing keeping my interest no matter how bad the story is being written. The show could be so much better if the writers only listened to their fans. It was a treat to see Lily and Dusty today. The have history and chemistry. Why dont they revist their relationship as adults? Instead we get Dusty getting involve with porn storylines. Sigh...I get tired of talking about how bad ATWT is too. But it seems no one at P&G or Chris Goutman himself care. Because if they did changes at the top would be made.

Cady returned last week but the storyline is already boring me. The return should have been done so much better. Wouldnt it have been better had she returned alive and out of her coma in Oakdale and surprised Craig. Nope..we get Meg's whining and bitching about her relationship with Craig like 5 days a week. Enough already....lets move it along.....IF things dont get better I am done with ATWT after almost 30 years. Once the Nuke storyline is over I am gone.
