Finally finished!

Alessio Chiodini & Gabriele Anagni.

Yesterday I finally finished the storyline of Sandro and Claudio from the Italian soap Un Posto al Sole. And it was great! I watched it last year and got so disappoited when the uploader just stopped in the middle of te storyline! But then there's Cris Mac. Thank you for that! Other gays came in between but some days ago I decided to finish. And it was a happy ending! Can you believe it! Two in a row! And also, I saw a Valentines greeting from Alessio Chiodini, who portrayed Sandro, where he told us that the ship name is Clandro. Just so we know! And I read that both actors Alessio and Gabriele are open for returning to the series. Let's hope for that! 'Cause I like it! Even it they could have been a bit more generous with the snogging...

Franck Borde & Laurent Kerusoré as Florian & Thomas.

And I'm on some sort of mission! I've decided to try to finish as many storylines as possible! I just have so many going on, and mst of them are UFO's (unfinished objects). So first I took on Nuke, then Fábio and Nuno and then Clandro. The next storyline I will finish is Thomas and Florian I think. And then I guess I have to take on the iceberg of WilSon. I have a lot to do there! And I have to start the Dominic Copeland storyline! There's just too many! Fortunately I have a lonf vacation soon!

Bye bye Nuke!

Jake Silbermann & Van Hansis.

I've finally finished the whole Nuke storyline! And I am a bit shattered. In the beginning I loved them! I couldn't understand why my faghag friend didn't like them and felt a bit newly in love. It's been a while since I found a long, finished storyline with a supercouple that I could just keep watching without have to wait for new episodes, that I really liked. So I really enjoyed it! Van Hansis is one of my favourites. I like his character, Luke Snyder, and I adore the actor. Jake Silberman, who plays Noah Mayer, was a bit shaky in the beginning, but he also became a really good actor! So thumbs up! I loved even though the were really stingy with snogging in the beginning. But as the storyline continued, the more kissing we got and Luke and Noah/Van and Jake became more an more confortable together. And it became reaaaally boring. I hate to say it, but after a while it bace such a snooze fest. And I knew about what was going to happen. I am constantly spoiling my self just to not get disappointed. It's a very good stratergy. Because of that I did survive what happened...

Van Hansis & Eric Sheffer Stevens.

Luke and Reid happened and OMG! I was really not looking forward to that! I hated Dr Reid Oliver in advance and when he showed up I thought "Let's just get it over with", but then oh my! Even though I knew, SPOILER ALERT, that Reid was going to die and I didnt really stopped shipping Nuke, I started to ship LuRe (not the bes ship name though) so hard! Dr Reid Oliver is just the best gay character ever, alongside Brendan Brady in Hollyoaks. He is rude, arrogant and full of him self and just such an amazing person! It becomes really clear in the end.

Dr Reid Oliver.

Dr Reid Oliver, played by Eric Sheffer Stevens, was killed off way to early! Like two or so episodes before As the World Turns ended in 2010. Way to early! I just think it's so unecessary to kill off characters in the end. I know, it's for the drama, but why does it always have to be the best characters and the gay guys?! Really heart breaking! I do hope to see Eric Sheffer Stevens in something else. He is amazing!

So, where does it leave me? Well, I'm still a Nuke shipper, I just ship LuRe more! I mean, Reid is dead so if there can't be a sunset ending for LuRe, to ship Nuke is better than nothing. They are still cute. There's still something. And it ended promising for all the Nuke shippers. I liked the end. Open. It's good. But if you feel a bit unsatisfied with that, watch the fanvid below. It's very well done and it's satisfying. And Luke's haircut has its own life.

Another Halo

There's just something about that song that fits so perfectly in a fanvid! Well I've never seen a straight one, but I guess they're perfect to. So thank you Beyoncé for this song!

Yes, I finally started watching Nuke! And I like it! Van Hansis who plays Luke are really cute. So, who are Nuke?

Van Hansis as Luke Snyder and Jake Silbermann as Noah Mayer.

Nuke actually made the first on screen gay kiss in an American daytie soap I read somewhere. You know, Steven Carrington and Luke Fuller never got to kiss in the 80's Dynasty. So the Americans had to wait until 2007 before it happened! So we have missed out a lot of male snogging through the years. What a shame! And also, the controversial storyline of As the World Turns also gave us the first ever gay supercouple in an American soap! They really are slow starters in the USA. And everywhere else...

Van Hansis.

So, Luke Snyder (Van Hansis) appeared on screen in 1995, and was then played by several child actors, then sorased (soap opera rapid age syndrome) a few times with other actors before Van Hansis took over the part in 2005. Somewhere between that and 2007 he also came out. But Van Hansis didn't until 2014, but that is another story.

Jake Silbermann.

In 2007 Jake also met Noah Mayer (Jake Silbermann), who he fell for almost imediately. But Noah dated Luke's annoying friend Maddie before also he came out and started a relationship with Luke. But Noah's father was like the most homophobic bad ass parent ever and shot Luke trying to kill him. But Luke survives and is in a wheelchair for a while before he was fit for fight again. And that's about how far I've come.

I've been told that Nuke is likeable in the beginning but that's there's a tendency towards dislike later in the storyline. Right now I enjoy it though. The storyline is quite interesting, the soap seems to be quite alright to be an American soap, the guys are cute and they have got good chemistry. I will come back to you about how I like it later. And please enjoy Halo the Nuke way.

To prioritize

Stendan in Dublin.

I've just finished the Stendan storyline from Hollyoaks and it was an awful ending. Even though I knew what was going to happen (Brendan get's prisoned for life) I was crying my eyes out. It was utterly awful! I really hope there will be a better ending eventually. I mean, som day Kieron Richardson (Ste) has to leave the series or if the series will be cancelled, they might maybe bring Brendan Brady (Emmet J. Scanlan) back? Just for an episode o two (he's got a lot on, rightly, because he is absolutely brilliant) so he and Ste can leave together? I for one is hoping for that at least. I mean the more Emmet J. Scanlan/Brendan Brady we get, the better!

So this leaves me with the post Stendan blues. What to do know? What am I going to watch? And I really need to prioritize. I mean, I don't have endless amounts of time watching gay storylines with a full time job and all, and no one is paying me for watching soap operas so I have to prioritize. I am currently watching the ongoing storylines of Johnny Carter in Eastenders, Elias, Lari, Miska and Kalle in Salatut Elämät, Will and Sonny in Days of our lives even though I am behind in the Johnny storyline generally and in the WilSon storyline especially. And I am actually even watching the Olli storyline from Verbotene Liebe even though we're on a break since I haven't watching Olli since Christian left about for the last time about a year ago. But I am watching them all.

Deniz and Roman.

And I also have the DeRo storyline from Alles Was Zählt to finish, which I have actually just taken up again. And I also have some more Hollyoaks to watch. I have a bit of McCarter (John Paul and Doug), John Paul and Danny, McHay (John Paul and Ste), George and Vincent and also some Kris Fischer and Ravi to watch, even though I think all of them is not complete. And I really love Hollyoaks so I definitely will be watching one or two of those storylines soon. And if there will be some more Ringo action in Unter Uns I will be watching that to.

Noah and Luke from As The World Turns

But I am also very eager to start watching anything new as well. I am extra keen on watching the dutch Lucas and Edwin (Ludwin) story that I've gotten hold of thanks to readers (thank you so so much!), the Luke and Noah (Nuke) storyline from As The World Turns or maybe the Aaron and Jackson storyline from Emmerdale.

Adrian and Javier aka David and Fer.

And I am also very very very eager to watch Fervid again. Fer and David from spanish Física o Química are really my favourite couple and I really feel that I need to watch them again. I have cravings.

So what to prioritze? Any suggestions?
