GAY IE TV:
Luke and Noah
on "As the World Turns”

Noah Mayer and Luke Snyder are “Nuke” or “Loah” the gay super couple on the daytime soap “As the World Turns” (CBS). College students in the fictional Oakdale, Ill., Luke met Noah a couple years back during a summer internship at the local TV station, and just like their straight counterparts on daytime TV it’s been a rocky road to romance. Noah had to come out of the closet, admit his feelings for Luke and then get detoured by by a green card marriage. Fans were delighted when Luke and Noah finally locked lips, then frustrated when there was a drought in displays of affection, counting down the days between kisses. But once “Nuke” started kissing again they can’t seem to stop and they finally hooked up this spring. The couple is planning to move in together, but not before dealing with housing discrimination, a possible hate crime, a homophobic biological father and…well, you get the picture.
“As the World Turns” airs from 1 to 2 p.m. weekdays on CBS. But you don’t have to stay home or even you’re your TIVO to catch Luke and Noah. Find their story episodes (more than 300 video clips) at http://www.lukeandnoahfans.com/
