The Kiss Campaign has finally succeeded in what, many thought, would never happen. 211 days, 14 hours, 45 minutes, and 45 seconds after their first kiss, Noah and Luke, on As the World Turns, have finally locked their lips again!. The producers of the show, in a statement to AfterElton.com, said, “As The World Turns remains committed to telling the story of Luke and Noah. We continue to tell this and all our stories based on what we think is best creatively. This kiss is the natural evolution of the relationship between Luke and Noah.”
Uh Huh. According to AfterElton.com, “Daytime television’s only gay couple, often referred to as “Nuke” by fans, last kissed on September 26, 2007. Since then, there has been plenty of kissing between the show’s heterosexual couples, but a series of interruptions and pan-aways whenever it seemed like the gay teens might kiss.”

Started by a viewer, the “Kiss Campaign” encouraged fans to send bags of Hershey’s Kisses to CBS and Procter & Gamble Productions, which produces the show, encouraging them to show “Nuke” kissing again.
