So Luke/Noah has always been my one and only OTP. But lately, I've been really getting into Kyle/Fish. Is anyone else watching them? I haven't read any fanfic yet, but I'm totally hooked on the YouTube clips. Which is where it all started for me with Nuke. They're just... the love and and... the drama and and... one of the hottest first kisses ever, I mean seriously, up there with Nuke's first kiss as far as I'm concerned. And they're supposed to be on 4 days this week! And they were on 3 days last week! I mean seriously!

Ahem. Not that they will ever displace my Nuke love. And the Nuke first kiss still reigns supreme. But still.

Anyone else?
I'm liking Kish so far and all the characters involved in their storyline (Cristian, Layla, Roxie.....)/

I think their story is being well-written, and the fact that they're being featured so heavily gets an A++ in my books.

I'll admit, I'm more of a Kyle Lover than an Oliver Lover, but I do think the two have certain chemistry together and I'm interested to see where this goes.

(However, I will also admit that the kiss didn't do much for me either. It wasn't the kiss itself, because obviously OLTL didn't shy away from having two men kiss each other, but I didn't feel the excitement and giddiness over their kiss like I did (do) with Nuke.

Then again.....no one comes close to Nuke in anything so that could be the reason why. I'm biased. And not ashamed to say it. :P )

I wasn't all that impressed with Kish. I watched their first kiss to see if there was anything there would make me want to get caught up and sucked into yet another soap but nah.

And it was the first Nuke kiss that got me involved in their storyline. I'd been watching other videos on YT and their first kiss came up as a recommendation, and always a fan of the boy kissing I watched it. And that kiss was so amazing that it made me go, "Ok, wow. I need to go back to the beginning of this story and see what caused that to happen and when does it get to happen again."

Not saying that the Kish kiss wasn't good, it was. Very good. But it didn't grab me the way Nuke's first did.

Never feel weird about your OTPs! I was loving these two before I knew what OTPs or shipping were, and they still remain my favorite Disney couple. I think my friend!ship fetish comes from them.

It's funny because I've tried to get into other (better written) gay Soap couples but no matter what they do better, something about Nuke always makes me stay. Kish? No. JP&Craig? Didn't see the chemistry. Otalia? Meh. Reese/Bianca? I thought they were pretty good but thanks to AMC, right after the wedding, Bianca left and Reese as left blind. Rafe/Adam? Hahahahahaha, funny..

Here are I actually root for besides Nuke ~

SOAPS:
Christian/Olli (Verbonte Liebe)
Murray/Katherine (Y&R) -- though they are not on as much now, which makes me sad..
Holden/Lily (ATWT)
Jack/Janet (ATWT)
Henry/Vienna (ATWT)

MOVIES/TV SHOWS:
Wesley/Buttercup (...sorry, HUGE crush on Cary Elwes as a kid :wub )
Jack/Rose (Titanic)
Jack/Ennis (Brokeback Mountain)
Noah/Alli (The Notebook)
House/Wilson (House M.D.)
Joe/Alison (Medium)

...I'll think of more...I know I have more... *mumbles to self and walks away from thread*

Not a fan of Kish at all. I guess I'm not seeing what everyone else is seeing. Even if I haven't watched other youtube clips and I only watched the kiss, still not a fan. Their kiss was very 'meh' to me too. And I'm not being biased either. If I really think a kiss is hot and passionate and toe curling I will totally admit it. But IMO Kish's first kiss wasn't that. Not even close.

I thought it was awkward and clunky. And it lasted like 2 seconds.

Nuke's first kiss was an actual real first kiss. There were mouths moving and everything. And SPIT STRAND! There's a spit strand. In case no one ever noticed but there is. Plus their first kiss was up close, Kish's panned away immediately.

Posted Image

And Nuke's follow up kiss after that first one? HOLY SHIT. When you watch it in slow motion...forget it.

Posted Image

Jake closing his eyes half way...that half-lidded look he had before diving back in. SHIT. Nuke's chemistry blow's Kish's out of the water. MY GOD.

Anyway. Sorry, no Kish for me in the future. Also, are Kish on that much...or is it just a Fish with a side of Kyle? Kind of Luke used to be on 17 times a month. Or on all the time without Noah. Cause I heard from a friend of mine who's watching that they're not on as much either. And that she doesn't see the difference between them and Nuke except that Nuke has more chemistry. And she's not a big fan of Fish either.

So I'm with Lis, not really seeing the chemistry that Van and Jake have.

OMG! Exactly!

And didn't the kiss kind of remind you of Nuke's 6th kiss with a splash of the 20th kiss? I really didn't see Fish even TRY in that kiss and the angle of the kiss (right in the beginning) reminded me of the 6th kiss.

Posted Image Posted Image

And then the second, 2 sec. part of the kiss, like a really sucky version of the 20th kiss, with far, far less passion?

Posted Image Posted Image

Yeah, sorry but everything comes back to Nuke! :P

Exactly.

And notice how in that Old Towne kiss, Van's hands are on Jake's side and back and then shoulders. NOT covering their faces, thank you very much.

Not saying future Kish kisses won't be better. But from the very beginning Nuke had me. THEY HAD ME AT HELLO. Er...or from spit strand. :D

Nuke's first kiss was IN YOUR GOD DAMN FACE.

On the topic of OTPs, OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT CARROT/ANGUA!!! (From Terry Pratchett's Discworld books) PTerry has said there are "puppies" in their future. If/When this occurs, I will squeal loud enough to wake the dead.

On the topic of gay soap couples, I haven't been able to get into ANY besides Luke and Noah. :/ I get involved due to the relationship, not the gay kissing (although that's nice too). As my OTP list has probably made obvious, I only really care for pairings that have a long, domestic, loyal history. I was lucky, and stumbled on the "Happy Ending" Nuke clip first, which sold me pretty much immediately. I tried watching nearly half of the Christian/Olli clips that were posted, but I never really bought the relationship and thus gave up (everyone lauds their frequent displays of affection, but I want a couple who will not only hug and kiss and have sex but also go shopping together and sit around being dorky and, you know, be normally but quietly in love). I haven't given Kish a shot yet; I kind of want to wait and see how long they last first.

What can I say? I want me some love-with-a-capital-L, not just the sexxin's. I know it's not realistic, but hey, it's a fictional world. :P

"points to avi and sig* Spencer and Ashley (South of Nowhere) are my OTP. :wub :wub

They actually remind me a lot of Luke and Noah. Ashley=Luke and Spencer=Noah. Spencer's even a filmmaker. :D I made a Spencer/Ashley and Luke/Noah similarities video a while back and it amazed me how many similar scenes those two couples have.

But I wished they KISSED like Luke and Noah. Because Spencer and Ashley? They don't kiss. They peck on the lips. The only time they ever really kissed was when they broke up. :( And even then, the camera kept cutting out.

I pretty much have the same OTPs as teh sister. We have the same brain so that makes sense.

Well, wow! Man, there are some pretty strong feelings about Kish out there, aren't there?

Folks, it wasn't a contest. I wasn't trying to say Kish are better than Nuke. Nuke have my heart forever and always, and as I said, their first kiss totally reigns supreme. I was just trying to say that I've been getting into Kish lately too. In addition to Nuke. Not instead of.

But thanks for the side-by-side comparisons! I may or may not have lingered and watched those kisses a few (dozen) more times before getting around to posting this comment. Hee. :)

YES! The whole both hands on both faces annoyed me to hell -- you could barly see the kiss because Kish's hand was blocking the angle of what the camera was shooting (not that I'm blaming Kyle..I think he's a cutie-pie compared to sinky old Fish)

Let's just SEE when the next Kish kiss will be. Have Otalia even kissed ONCE after their first "suprise" on in the house or has it been just slight hand touches? The only Soap I'll see semi-props for is AMC for trying with Bianca/Maggie or Bianca/Reese.

Just shit their pants? Pshh, I think they had a friggin' heart-attack from the passion that was coming (haha, coming...) through their screen!

Oh, and what spit strand? I only have seen that in the 3rd kiss because that was a LONG spit stand :rotfl

Ok...rant over --- for now :devil

I've been watching "The Broken Hearts Club: A Romantic Comedy" a lot lately because it's been on HBO and every time I watch it I get all swoony over the Kevin/Dennis storyline. True, it has a lot to do with the fact that it's Andrew Keegan and Timothy Olyphant making out with each other and falling in lurve, but it's just so sweet.

And even though I know how it ends, I'm bummed every single time. I want a sequel made just so that they can end up together even though it's alluded to us that they do eventually when Dennis gets back from Europe.

I do love that movie. It has a pretty awesome cast and it's sweet and funny and has boys making out with other boys (always a :alrighty ).

Hahha, sister. Any reason for you to pimp Spencer/Ashley. Ha! :P Yup. They're on the N. Well, they were, not anymore cause the show is over. But they're even more censored than Nuke. And they're on a cable network AND they're girls, you'd think they'd show more. But nope. So lame.

Rachel! I'm sorry. :grouphug Didn't mean to come down hard on YOU for Kish. Kish is just a sensitive subject because it brings up awful feelings personally for me. I recently had to defriend someone on my LJ for all the whole Kish vs. Nuke thing. And there are still several people doing it too on my friends list. Problem is, I like some of these people and the fact that they're saying shit about Nuke when they were once fans, breaks my heart that I'm tempted to defriend them all.

And I just try to scroll past all of those entries but it's hard. Everywhere I go, even on my damn facebook. And especially on other boards that I visit, they're there.

It's the whole Kish is SO MUCH BETTER THAN NUKE thing that pisses me off. And these are coming mostly from former Nuke fans who got burned by Nuke and are bitter. And it's so freaking annoying because the only reason they're saying this is to piss off current Nuke fans AND stick it to TPTB for how they're treating Nuke. :( I don't mind the comparisons, but if you're gonna put down Nuke just for the hell of it so you can make Kish look better just cause you're bitter at how Nuke is being written, how the heck is that fair? And people are all praising at how Kish is so much better written and they're groundbreaking or whatever. And it's like they conveniently forgot that they were all saying the exact same things when Nuke first started. :( And it's like all that magic of Nuke didn't count for them. How Nuke paved the way for future gay couples for daytime was all for nothing. And they're using Kish to diminish all Nuke has done. And that just makes my blood boil something fierce.

When Che and I allowed that Kish community to be pimped on LJ? People were already commenting at how they're so much better than Nuke. We put a stop to it for the most part and got rid of the comments that were less than savory. BUT SERIOUSLY. It's a NUKE community, why would you even say that? :( And we didn't even have to allow the mods to post that comm ad there in the first place cause it had nothing to do with Nuke. But we did, because we thought there was no harm in pimping out another gay daytime couple. I was so tempted to delete the entire post after those comments.

THEN. We did end up having to delete another post entirely. A post that someone made about Olli and Christian and pimping out their comm. We were gonna leave it up, but almost immediately there were already comments bashing Nuke and how Olli and Christian blow them out of the water, and that Olli and Christian are what are real gay couple is like. And seriously? SERIOUSLY? On a Nuke comm? WHY are you even a part of it? :(

*DEEP BREATH*

Anyway.

I've watched some of Kish off and on and here and there when I have time or catch a clip, and I can honestly say that they don't do anything for me. I just don't feel it. And I tried to watch BEFORE all the Nuke vs Kish thing came out in full force. When I watch Kish I feel like I'm watching a soap opera, with mediocre acting at best. When I watch Nuke, I've never felt that way. No matter how soapy and ridiculous the storylines got, Van and Jake's acting never faltered. And that was my biggest peeve when I first started hearing about Nuke. I was all, "heck no, I don't care how cute the boys are. it's a soap, i ain't watching that." But I gave it a go, cause they kept popping up. And I am so fucking glad I did, because from the very beginning, from the very first youtube clip I watched, I was hooked. And it didn't feel like I was watching a soap opera at all. Van was what got me first, (cause we all know I didn't like Noah at the beginning :P ) And all I saw was an actor who was fucking DAMN GOOD at his craft. I got goosebumps and butterflies from the very beginning. From Kish, I get nothing. Everyone says they're like Nuke 2.0. So it's like the same, but it's not. For Nuke the magic is there for me, for Kish it isn't. :(

And I guess one of the things that gets me the most is, Kish is coming around at a time Nuke is being written poorly. Or are barely on. So the people who have abandoned ship and now just blast Nuke for the new shiny thing that is Kish breaks my heart. :(

And BOY HOWDY. Look at this long ass comment. :omg I'm sorry. I guess this topic makes me more sad panda that I thought it would. :sadpanda :sadpanda :sadpanda :sadpanda

Buffy/Angel were good and broke my fucking heart on several occasions, but nothing pulled at my heartstrings like Buffy/Spike and (gasp!, I'm going to say it) Cordelia/Angel.

Now, don't argue with me or there will be no fic posted. And I'm just now getting to the :buttsex part of it all.

:P

Hahha, sister. Any reason for you to pimp Spencer/Ashley. Ha! :P Yup. They're on the N. Well, they were, not anymore cause the show is over. But they're even more censored than Nuke. And they're on a cable network AND they're girls, you'd think they'd show more. But nope. So lame.

Rachel! I'm sorry. :grouphug Didn't mean to come down hard on YOU for Kish. Kish is just a sensitive subject because it brings up awful feelings personally for me. I recently had to defriend someone on my LJ for all the whole Kish vs. Nuke thing. And there are still several people doing it too on my friends list. Problem is, I like some of these people and the fact that they're saying shit about Nuke when they were once fans, breaks my heart that I'm tempted to defriend them all.

And I just try to scroll past all of those entries but it's hard. Everywhere I go, even on my damn facebook. And especially on other boards that I visit, they're there.

It's the whole Kish is SO MUCH BETTER THAN NUKE thing that pisses me off. And these are coming mostly from former Nuke fans who got burned by Nuke and are bitter. And it's so freaking annoying because the only reason they're saying this is to piss off current Nuke fans AND stick it to TPTB for how they're treating Nuke. :( I don't mind the comparisons, but if you're gonna put down Nuke just for the hell of it so you can make Kish look better just cause you're bitter at how Nuke is being written, how the heck is that fair? And people are all praising at how Kish is so much better written and they're groundbreaking or whatever. And it's like they conveniently forgot that they were all saying the exact same things when Nuke first started. :( And it's like all that magic of Nuke didn't count for them. How Nuke paved the way for future gay couples for daytime was all for nothing. And they're using Kish to diminish all Nuke has done. And that just makes my blood boil something fierce.

When Che and I allowed that Kish community to be pimped on LJ? People were already commenting at how they're so much better than Nuke. We put a stop to it for the most part and got rid of the comments that were less than savory. BUT SERIOUSLY. It's a NUKE community, why would you even say that? :( And we didn't even have to allow the mods to post that comm ad there in the first place cause it had nothing to do with Nuke. But we did, because we thought there was no harm in pimping out another gay daytime couple. I was so tempted to delete the entire post after those comments.

THEN. We did end up having to delete another post entirely. A post that someone made about Olli and Christian and pimping out their comm. We were gonna leave it up, but almost immediately there were already comments bashing Nuke and how Olli and Christian blow them out of the water, and that Olli and Christian are what are real gay couple is like. And seriously? SERIOUSLY? On a Nuke comm? WHY are you even a part of it? :(

*DEEP BREATH*

Anyway.

I've watched some of Kish off and on and here and there when I have time or catch a clip, and I can honestly say that they don't do anything for me. I just don't feel it. And I tried to watch BEFORE all the Nuke vs Kish thing came out in full force. When I watch Kish I feel like I'm watching a soap opera, with mediocre acting at best. When I watch Nuke, I've never felt that way. No matter how soapy and ridiculous the storylines got, Van and Jake's acting never faltered. And that was my biggest peeve when I first started hearing about Nuke. I was all, "heck no, I don't care how cute the boys are. it's a soap, i ain't watching that." But I gave it a go, cause they kept popping up. And I am so fucking glad I did, because from the very beginning, from the very first youtube clip I watched, I was hooked. And it didn't feel like I was watching a soap opera at all. Van was what got me first, (cause we all know I didn't like Noah at the beginning :P ) And all I saw was an actor who was fucking DAMN GOOD at his craft. I got goosebumps and butterflies from the very beginning. From Kish, I get nothing. Everyone says they're like Nuke 2.0. So it's like the same, but it's not.

Everything, right there.

Except I'm not a big member of LJ but I've experienced a lot of (sorry the next statements) Nuke hate from AI fans who are following Kradam. Do you know how devasted I was when my twin on vh.net said that she's only going to watch the Nuke ep. on YT (she used to watch the entire show, everyday like I did..) and that she's leaving the forum because she needs something new and exciting like Kradam? I couldn't believe it.

And now, I'm afaird that's gunna again with Kish if they DO get better. I remember feeling the same way about Reese/Bianca too. But who will be left on the Nuke fandoms if no one tries to once care about their favorite OTP?

P.S. Sorry as well Rach, Kish just puts a bad flavor in my mouth.

OMG. YES. THIS. YES THIS TIMES A MILLION. TIMES ELEVENTY BILLION. TIMES A TRILLION MILLION BILLION.

I thought I was the only one who felt this way.

I've had REALLY REALLY REALLY good friends leave the Nuke fandom for Kradam as well.

I have bitten my tongue bloody so I wouldn't say anything. And quietly mourned.

It's fucking sad. A couple that once meant so much to you, you can just abandon so fast. :crying :crying :crying :crying :crying

All my past OTPs have special places in my heart. But I've never seen people drop a couple as fast as Nuke for other people. And then just leave them there on dirty streets, all stepped on and broken. :sadpanda :sadpanda :sadpanda :sadpanda :sadpanda
