Nuke spoiler for week of April 21

I just saw this recent spoiler for the week of April 21 and wanted to post it for the remaining four or five people that are STILL watching this dredge Nuke. Ameera confesses her upset about Noah's lack of interest in her and is ready to go back to Iraq, but Luke suggests that the three of them live together. Good luck people.

Is anyone really still watching this madness?

Proper Response

Not that I'm actually watching it much anymore (though I am appreciating the sacrifice of the liveblogging and I'll rarely even watch a video clip, if only in disbelief), but ... y'know, if Ameera is upset and threatening to move back to Iraq, Luke's response should be to run out and purchase a one-way ticket. "Obviously you don't appreciate the sacrifices my boyfriend and I have made, so ... see ya!"

You have GOT to be kidding me!

Okay, now we're venturing past the realm of the absurd and into the realm of just plain flat-out stupid!

Honestly, I'm not even sure how to react to this.  In any sane world (where Luke reacted like a human being instead of a robot) he would probably offer to help Ameera pack and see if grandma (the rich one) would spring for a First Class ticket back to the Middle East.

But of course this won't happen.  Our boys will have to plead with the Plot Device to stay.  Because since they're not allowed to have an actual relationship like Ollian over on Verbotene Liebe they need something to keep their dull storyline going.  Ollian live with a chick too, but their's a blatant fag hag so it's normal.  Nuke are totally divorced from all gay (and human) norms, so their's would have to be Iraqi refugee with questionable ties to Noah's father. 

I just now realized that they were employing foreshadowing all those months ago when Luke and Noah were discussing their prospective living arrangements and they made some non-sensical remarks about wanting to form a "different sort of family".

*SHUDDER*

Apparently this "different sort of family" will entail a household consisting of Luke, his same-sex not-quite-partner Noah, Noah's married-for-the-Green-Card Muslim wife and presumably any progeny they manage to produce.

My God!  It sounds like some kind of 60's commune!

Nah, more like a bad 70's-80's sitcom. :)

Family

Oh my God! You're right. This was the "different" kind of family they were talking about! They should have adopted Ameera instead of marrying her.


Didn't Luke used to have more of a spine than this? I remember in the beginning, even as much as I liked Noah, I cheered for Luke when he was ready to cut him loose. He wasn't going to wait around for Noah to figure out what he wanted from Maddie. I think he even said something great like, "The right guy or no guy at all." The Luke of last summer would NOT be making himself into this wimpy doormat. He would have either sent Ameera on her way, or sent Noah on his way. Or both.


I'm tired of Ameera's pity-me passive-aggressive routine already.

Nuke crap

I do watch the clips every-so-often ... I must be a glutton for punishment!  The story has gone from important and entertaining to just plain stupid and insulting!!! As cute as Luke is, I would not want a boyfriend like him ... he has no BALLS!!! The writers had a good thing going and unless they make some changes soon, they will loose it.

noah doesn't pay attention to ameera

ameera then decides "well, i'll just go back to iraq" (yes, please do. you'll put us all out of our misery)

then luke decides "heck no. why don't we all live together?!"

DID I MISS SOMETHING HERE?

Only keeping up with the plot on the live blog

And on YouTube....Thanks Andy....Wouldn't waste my time spending more than 10 minutes watching this train wreck....There is only one way that I would watch again...is a public apology from TIIC at ATWT to the gay community for all the insults they have thrown at us during the last 6 months.

And the three of them living

And the three of them living together would look PERFECTLY NORMAL to the INS! Why not have Casey move in, too? This show must think the viewers are idiots.

Luke and Noah

shouldn't by a ticket for Ameera, but one for themselves .... to Germany. I'm very sure there's an empty room in the flat that Oliver and Christian share with Judith and that the guys are more then willing to offer it to Luke and Noah.
