AS THE WORLD TURNS - 5/20/2008, CBS
This daytime soap opera had, by this point, stopped being quite so damn prissy about showing physical affection between Noah (Jake Silbermann) and Luke (Van Hansis), aka "Nuke." The characters were a couple on the show from 2007 until the series' cancellation in 2010.
Here, Luke and Noah seem to finally be freed from the main problems in their relationship: 1) having to sneak and hide because of Noah's green-card marriage to a woman (so she could stay in the U.S.), and 2) threats and violence from Noah's homophobic father (who by this time was in prison).

#AnotherWorld (1964-1999, NBC) existed in what we would today call a "universe.”
Characters crossed over w/ sister shows like #AsTheWorldTurns, #TheGuidingLight and #ForRicherForPoorer + migrated to spinoffs #Somerset (1970–76) and #Texas (1980-82) and back!
And characters lived on elsewhere after the parent show was cancelled!

I still read this every year - even though the only US soap opera that I followed, #AsTheWorldTurns #ATWT ended in 2010:
