Our soapsmaster Anthony just tipped me off that Luke and Noah are once again the subjects of today's preview clip for As the World Turns (is it just me or has this been happening more frequently as of late?), and it's a goodie!

After the jump, see what happens when the twin forces of pent-up sexual frustration and gay co-dependency are perfectly aligned. I could run my Kitchenaid off this electricity!

Today on As the World Turns, Allison and Casey decide the best way to get their lovelorn pals Luke and Noah back together is to lock the two of them out on a rooftop for a heart to heart.

The whole experience might bring Allison and Casey closer, but what will it do for Luke & Noah's strained relationship? 

To find out, watch today's Nuke video clips after the break.

The roof is on fire ... with the sound of bickering gay lovers!

In today's As the World Turns, Casey "Butters" Hughes (who has over the past year easily become my favorite Oakdale resident, and not just because he has an apparent allergy to shirts) decides to play yenta by locking estranged gay virgins Luke and Noah out on a rooftop together. Genius!

Will anything come of Butters' meddling? Or, dare I say, "fiddling"? No? K. Just let me know when I get too greedy.

Today on As the World Turns, sexually confused Brian Wheatley is still recovering from the suckerpunch he received on New Year's Eve. His beard wife Lucinda is doting on him, thinking he was mugged, but really it was an enraged Noah who assaulted him when he saw Brian kissing Luke.

Luke and Brian make a pact to put the whole sorry episode behind them, but someone else saw Luke and Brian kissing on New Year's Eve: Cousin Jade! And there's no love lost between Jade and Lucinda. Watch what happens in today's highly emotional Nuke video clip when Lucinda unwisely picks a fight with Jade.

At long last, it looks like the truth about Luke's handsy new peepaw, Brian "Wheatables" Wheatley, is about to come out.

Following last week's awesome/wretched New Year's Eve debacle, Luke again confronts his grandma's gay husband about his secret, and finally Lady Drumstick picks up on the fact that her grandkid and hubby are keeping something from her. I have a feeling she won't be leaving Luke alone with Brian anymore once she finds out!

But who will ultimately spill the beans about Wheatables' extracurriculars with his step-grandson? Click on through the jump and refresh often to find out ... as it happens!

Okay, so the proverbial "Gone Fishin'" sign is still up here at AfterElton.com. (We'll be back January 5th). But it's New Year's Eve in Oakdale and we couldn't let that pass without an As the World Turns video clip update.

The show starts off with Lucinda in her best bra and panty set trying to entice her closet case husband into bed. For his part, Brian Wheatley is doing everything he can to avoid sleeping with his wife.  Failing that, he's going to get himself good and liquored in order to do the deed. 

Meanwhile, Noah has arranged a very romantic evening with his on again off again boyfriend Luke. If all goes as planned, then tonight the boys will finally consummate their relationship. But this is Oakdale and rarely does anything go as planned. Before the night is through someone is going to get sucker punched. (And not in a fun way.)

Today on As the World Turns, Jade is angry at Luke for turning her in to the cops. Will the Snyders get her out of the big house before Christmas? More importantly, will everyone survive the very moderately tense hostage situation that plays out at Oakdale police headquarters? And hey, if anyone has to take a bullet before that knife-wielding Latino guy is subdued, then please God let it be tough-yet-absurdly-inept lady cop, Margo. The streets of Oakdale would be far safer without her.

Meanwhile across town, Maddie jokes about turning Noah gay, and then practically throws herself at Casey (Butters). But Casey inexplicably "pulls a Wheatley" and refuses to jump in the sack with her. Hmm, maybe she really does turn guys gay... 

After Casey tells Maddie he "wants to go slow" he ditches her at Java, where Noah lends her a shoulder to cry on. How much do you want to bet Luke shows up at precisely this moment and gets the wrong impression?

Check out today's Nuke video clip after the break! And PS - That curious prostrate awareness commercial appears at the end of it!

Before the Ghost of Christmas Present wraps the citizens of Oakdale in an extra-large Snuggie™ and rocks them to sleep for the holiday, it looks like daytime's Alpha Gay Teen Couple will be suffering from a relapse of Nukus Interruptus thanks to recently returned former third wheel, Maddie.

While yesterday thankfully made up for last year's Mistletoe That Ate Christmas debacle, will the unwelcome Nukeblock sour our eggnog for the holiday season? Or will TSTB (The Scrooges That Be) find it in their hearts to grant us a Christmas miracle?

Today's As the World Turns had a few serious shout-outs to the Nuke fans. The big one? Luke and Noah reunite (however briefly) and kiss under the mistletoe! It's just like last year only THE CAMERA DOESN'T PAN AWAY. Hey, it looks like those folks at P&G actually listened to viewer complaints.

But you know their happiness can't last because who should show up but Noah's ex-girlfriend Maddie. Luke would normally be happy to see his old friend, but he's not pleased with all the attention Noah is paying Maddie.

Our boy Casey ("Butters") has his own issuies with Maddie's return. It seems he's still carrying a torch for the girl. Could this be what prompts him to get a blonde dye job midway through the episode?

Meanwhile, across town Lucinda continues her hopeless campaign to bed Wheatley. Good luck with that.

This is a fun episode of As the World Turns. Check out the special extended video clips (there are 2) after the break!

With Christmas looming on the horizon like the silhouette of some enormous, mythic beast hungry and lumbering in our direction, the Whos of Whodale prepare for the holiday by scheming, lying, murdering, making bad decisions and being generally selfish and shallow ... all while surrounded by twinkly lights and garland. It's a beautiful thing.

And it looks like the Christmas spirit is working its charms on estranged gay lovers Luke and Noah, who are brought together to reminisce about the good old days when they didn't have sex and were tortured by the fact (as opposed to now when they don't have sex and aren't really bothered by it). Not to mention last Christmas, when they didn't kiss under the mistletoe. Ahhh, good times...
