News, Reviews & Commentary on Gay and Bisexual Men in Entertainment and the Media

Cake in the oven

Things may heat up for Cake. Casey and Luke to pair off. according to interview with Van Hansis of As The World Turns.

In an interview in Soap Opera Weekly, Van Hansis tells that Casey will be at Java with Ameera when an INS agent shows up to question their relationship. Luke jumps in to say that Casey is his boyfriend, forcing Casey to play along. "His reaction is, 'What the F?!'" But Casey plays along in order to get closer to Ameera. Van seems to suggest that "Casey and Luke's interactions are more funny then the whole situation." Because, he suggests, they were trying to make it look real rather than offer hijinks.

Hansis also give us a rare glimpse into the mind of Luke and his fretting, "the idea of what to eat for breakfast probably worries Luke. I don't think he questions Noah, but he questions the situation. He's worried about them drifting apart..."

But Hansis says he is moved by the fans kiss campaigns. I don't know how he could ignore what's going on. He saysshe's moved that fans care so much.

Surprisingly, is Luke going after another straight boy? He will be "hitting on Casey!" Hansis "teases." He also reports that there are rumblings of a character from the past returning. I'm guessing that will be Colonel Mayer, returning to tie up the whole Ameera, letter, road trip sub plot.

Another, another cover

Doesn't anyone else smell a trap. this would just be some sad excuse for the writers trying to keep a drastically declining interest in this stroy. We all know NOTHING is going to happen with this, except maybe casual contact, like an arm around a shoulder.

I still watch the show from time to time on you tube and nothing has changed. Being gay is about attraction between two same-sex people. If the attraction is never shown then all we can do is imagine what it would be. And how is that any different from imagining what a relationship between casey and matt would be like. Right now there is so little between them they might as well be straight.

I hope they don't bring back maddie, because that will be just one more excuse to not let them kiss, god forrbid they should offend her. I hope jade comes back, she would force luke to go after noah.

Might be fun.

It's hard to say what Hanis thinks is funny or why. I'm guessing that the producers might have talked about campling it up a bit, like Chuck and Larry. But decided to play it 'straight', however Magnussen and Hansis end up muging while they try to wing it in front of the INS.

How cool would Cake (CAsey+luKE) be? They go on a double date and Noah blows his top because a drunk Casey can't keep his hands off of Luke?

yeah but

yeah CAKE could be fun, but what would happen to poor Maddie then. The poor girl would then have had her last two boyfriends become gay on her. Not a good boost to the old self-esteem there.
