ATWT: Week of December 22, 2008

As if I needed more reason to loathe that doughy stooge. What I hate the most about this whole Nuke phenomenon is that all these random news outlets that are praising the show for Nuke don't know a god damn thing about a) As the World Turns and B) soaps in general. Nuke is overblown clap trap, thus making it crap!

Did Goutman go shopping for all his nuCasts from the $.99 cents store? i know we're in a tough economy but don't tell me these are best finds you can get for these important characters. Eileen Fulton must be steamed.

I make it a point to visit Eileen's website at least once or twice a month because she regularly updates the front page with some information about what she's been up to lately and the such. She rarely mentions ATWT...at most, it's normally "I've been at the studio a lot lately, so I hope you get to see me soon" and the like, but in the latest update, she did two paragraphs about her frustrations with feeling like a "footstool" on the show and how she wishes the show and characters were more relateable. It's worth a read.

Haha...I hadnt realized that! He is ...isnt he...LOL. Will Lucinda push Luke down the ladder and make him fall on the Christmas Tree? :lol: Thus, hurting Luke's back. Then Luke begins to get hooked on pain killers. :lol:

That is Rattray, AMS. I dont even consider Deakins as Lily...LOL.

I can't wait until Lucinda finds out that grandbaby is trying to bone her man. My God, would it be wrong to want her to seriously go nuts on both their asses? Lord knows Maddie wasn't gonna do it!

And LOL about Deakins. She's several years before my time, and Rattray was still around when I was young, but I wasn't at the point of knowing who was who at that time, so I've been wondering for a while who that was lol.

Don't worry, I will be standing right by you getting hit by rocks too lol.

Both of you stand behind me, I have no problems taking the pain for us all! If I never said it before, I'm saying it now. DOWN. WITH. NUKE!!! I'm in such a rage, a banner might come out of this!

Thank you! :D

But I think the reason Brian and Luke are more liked/miles ahead of Nuke is because they actually have had meaningful talks. Luke is trying to figure out Brian. And Brian is trying to figure out his feelings for Luke. It's lays the foundation for a future something with them if the writers want to go that way. Nuke had none of that. I repeat they did not have none of that. Noah should up and Luke was all hit with love without ever finding out who/what Noah was really about. BAM BAM...they were a couple without a real meaningful talks or getting to know each other. Kevin and Luke had the same kind of start as Brian and Luke did.

Nuke is a textbook example of an insta-couple. But they're a gay insta-couple, so that trumps all. Ugh. It bugs!

Whenever I watch the Luke-Comes-out-to-Kevin drama on YouTube, it just pisses me off. That story was SO NOT over! It just wasn't! The foreshadowing was there, the viability was there, everything was there! They just dropped it, pushed Luke into the back, and then a few months later, voila, let's give Luke a boyfriend so that everyone will think we're hip, cool, and truly outrageous.

I am beginning to think that ATWT is getting their recasts from the rejects at the GL casting office.

Your posts are always right on AMS.

I agree with your assessment of Nuke. Those who gush about it dont know the soap or care to know it. They just watch for Nuke.

I need to visit Eileen website. Do you have a link to it?

I doubt Lucinda will scratch out Luke's eyes out. I can hope so but I doubt it. She will take all her anger out at Brian.

Deakins was around my time of watching but I hardly remember her in the role. I remember Martha and Heather days as Lily.

I hope you make a banner soon, AMS.

Yup, Luke and Kevin had so much potential. The story was gaining steam and then it was dropped. The ratings for the show were much higher than with Nuke pairing. The writers really blew a good opportunity with Kevin and Luke.

I am beginning to think that ATWT is getting their recasts from the rejects at the GL casting office.

LOL...or they are getting them from their crappy inturn contest...UGH!!

I haven't watched ATWT in....gosh almost 2 years but since I was off today I tuned in. I made it through the first 20 minutes before I gave up.

*sigh*

So, going by today's episode, you'd think the Snyders were the only family on the show.....but wait. They are, aren't they?

Thanks for the link AMS. What Snyders...??..oh yes...Jack and Meg. There was no Emma..etc..and where were the Hughes? I miss the Hughes Christmas'.

Blah....Jack's same [!@#$%^&*] jealous of Carly with another man. I am so sick of the same drivel with Jack now. The same [!@#$%^&*] Joanny storyline...so not original. I hate this story already again.

Well at least you tired. :D

Oh, you're right. I wasn't putting my full attention to the show (lol), and so for some reason I thought maybe I caught glance of Brad or Holden and Lily. Guess not. That's a shame...it's just a shame.

Here is the number to reach ATWT or the email to complain about the show. I say use it to end Nuke. Tell them how boring they are as a couple and how they have lost all their fizzle. I thought of starting a new thread just for this but decided not to.

Call or email now and often!

WOW this show is a HWAT mess......:angry:

And yeah I agree with Toups. I watched today because OLTL was pre-empted.

This was the Christmas episode? It didn't feel like it. There were no family gatherings. Where were the Hughes?

In the attic like ever Christmas since Goutman and Pissy have been in charge of ATWT. Instead as you know we got filled with more Johnny drama...UGH!! Goutman SUCKS!!

I have and I do. I tell them to end Nuke and either bring back Kevin, or let the Luke and Brian story move forward. The Luke and Brian story is kind of odd because of the age difference, but Brian's late blooming and the talks he has had with Luke and the chemistry between Lau and Hansis is so much better than anything Nuke.

Thanks for doing that! :)

Well, let's be fair....Casey and Margo were on yesterday, and the Lily/Holden Snyders were on Mon and Tue.

That being said...it was a horrible Xmas Eve show. I loathed Janet the Obnoxious Holiday Elf and Craig was insufferable as usual.

Don't get me started on Jack. I love him...but he was an obnoxious jerk today. That he had a point about Craig was beside the point, he just went in guns blazing and didn't give Carly a moment to explain.

No wonder I love Carly. At least she tried having some holiday spirit.
