Don't Mess With The Gays!

Filed under: TV News > Gay Gay Gay

The producers of the CBS soap opera As the World Turns are being pressured to write in more on-screen intimacy between the popular gay couple on the show.

We want some mouth to mouth action, bitches!!!!

In 1988, As the World Turns was the first daytime sudser to feature an openly gay character.

Last August, it's believed that it was also the first soap to feature two gay men, characters Luke Snyder and Noah Mayer, kissing.

Luke and Noah are now an official couple and fans can't understand why there hasn't been an on-air smooch between the two since September 2007.

Gay men aren't THAT prudish!

Corporate giant Procter and Gamble (makers of Crest, Mr. Clean, Pampers, Maybelline and so much more) finances the show and calls the creative shots. CBS airs the show and provides some consulting.

Are the suits standing in the way of the kiss?

There's no kissing ban, said Jeannie Tharrington, spokeswoman for Procter & Gamble Productions, although she wouldn't say what will happen in future shows. Producers are committed to telling the story of the romance, she said, adding she hoped the audience would recognize what As the World Turns is showing, instead of just what it isn't.

"We feel like we're doing so much right here," she said. "We're telling a story that no one else is doing. We're telling a story that has really engaged our audience."

CBS exec Barbara Bloom said she would like to see Luke and Noah's romance continue. "If that means there is a natural progression to the physical relationship, I would be in support of it," she said.

Let them kiss!

Just give the gay people who are calling in what they want. Show them fucking getting a blow job and all this will be over. No more complaints then

This is such a great story, but if not told in a realistic way (a.k.a: the physical aspect as well as everything else), then what is the point of it.

They should make this relationship as real as the heterosexual relationships on the show.
Kelvinnnz says – reply to this

29

Yeah, Passions had it with Chad. But that wasn't really passionate kissing. YOu could tell the actor was super unconfortable. Nothing compared to Nuke.

Are we forgetting: Ryan Phillipe's acting career began as Billy Douglas on "One Life to Live" (1992-93). His role was television's first gay teenager.

Thanks for posting this, but I'd like to point out that it's not just gay men rooting for this couple. Luke and Noah have a HUGE fanbase of straight and gay women as well! So, you see, the love of boy!kissing is universal!

Re: gay people are annoying – said …Is there ever a time when gays aren't complaining about something???…

OK, now let's switch that around to you, a lard assed unemployed fat slob with Dorito crumbs and food stains on her T-shirt with her bare callused, gray feet. Let's pretend no one will rent another trailer to you. Let's pretend that you and your drunk, toothless, mulleted boyfriend of the month do not have the same rights as thin, clean Americans who do not live in trailers. You would complain too.

People are people. Why you can sit on your pasty, fat, dirty ass and be so judgmental is really sad. When fatsos become the new "gay" and everyone hates them you'll regret that you perpetuated that hate, because it will turn on you.

Re: gay people are annoying –

What makes you think it's only gay people complaining? A huge part of the Luke/Noah fanbase are women, mostly straight woman, who like it when boys kiss. Luke and Noah are hot; we want more.

I find it a bit ridiculous that so called "conservatives" cannot stomach a gay relationship yet they can tune in daily to watch people get killed, rape, stealing, murder, and commit adultery. You can't call yourself conservative if you find nothing wrong with any of the above!

Thank Goodness! 'Very Psychotic' Madonna Stalker Has Been Captured!!!

What a relief!

To recap - early this morning, we heard the terrifying news that 54-year-old Robert Dewey Hoskins, a man who was convicted of stalking and threatening Madonna, had escaped from a mental hospital in Norwalk, CA.

The LAPD were describing the man as follows:
