Days of Our Lives gay kiss

[neoachilles]

For the better part of a year, now, Days of Our Lives has been setting up a coming-out storyline for 18-year-old Will Horton (played by the oh-so-cute Chandler Massey). Now the arc has taken its sweet time to heat up, with various subplots tossed into the mix--but today, things have finally picked up.

[gtru1981]

Dude that kiss was hot! Will is one horny little boy and I saw a clip for Fridays show and Will tugs the other guys shirt and lifted it up a little.

I feel bad for Sonny bc I thought he was about to cry when he saw it.

I never seen other soaps gay storylines, so I can't compare. But I liked it today.

[Spiff]

Something tells me this doesn't end with a hot three-way in the boys room.

[neoachilles]

Here is the kiss in its entirety:

[AlmondMilk]

Could've ended as a nice threeway

[socalguy]

its really a great story, just not about teens coming out I think its about the relationships between parents and their kids. I hope this story will educate parents on the sighs that child is dealing with something they feel like they can not talk about it openly. FYI on top of coming "out" he dealing with the fact he saw his mother fucking the towns monster EJ his mother is married to a good guy for the 1st time in life. FYI the KISS WAS HOT! He comes out to his grandmother today!

[Travisevian]

For many years, I've wanted to see this kind of scene on Days Of Our Lives and it was well worth the wait. Chandler Massey is one of the best things to ever happen to this show!

Could've ended as a nice threeway

It's daytime television. Don't push it.

[mbamike]

That is great!

[neoachilles]

Today's continuation of Will's kiss:

[jjlover]

I had never followed DOOL, but did follow the Luke/Noah story on ATWT. Heard about the kiss and recorded it Thursday. Looks like a good story line. Will try to watch it going forward. Chandler Massey is great (and great looking, too!).

[Blueboy369]

Started watching just because of this storyline. So far, so good!

[Ninja108]

Much better than many of the other scenes we've seen over the years.

[CWcharmed]

I've watched it over the years and it was always something I could catch up on so I made no big deal if I missed a day, a week or whatever. Now I wanting to watch it everyday because of Will. For some reason I've like his character a lot. Guess I know why now lol. Plus I've always liked Lucas

[TheLyingGame]

sorry, I was distracted by the horrendous acting..

[neoachilles]

^ *gasp* *turns away* How dare you! *pregnant pause* *struggles to cry*

[bynm27]

this was really cute, but i sure wish the young and restless would tackle this subject, too.

[socalguy]

Ya an now creepy Ian wants something from Will..Ekkkk. I really hope Will ends up with Sonny. I think everyone needs a friend like sONNNNY!

[Cammtl]

Luke and Noah set the benchmark but Will does a great job. He is a good actor. I hope eventually the writers will have him a nd Chad get together. They were so hot when they first came on the show.

[Sigma-taylor-E]

LOL Marlena's response was hilarious!

[gtru1981]

I think everyone needs a man like Sonny in his life.

I used to think Chad could be bisexual and be with Will. Of course, this was before Sonny. Although, I like the idea of Will and Sonny just being friends.

[Eaglex]

I have watched DOOL for years, and hoped they would have a gay character for a long time. Finally we get Sonny and then Will, it's just too great. That kiss was great for Will, he finally had the nerve to act on his feelings instead of deny them. So close to telling Marlena before the New Year only to stop himself, and then he gets interrupted by Sami before actually coming out, that just sucks. I agree, everyone could use a guy like Sonny Kiriakis in their lives.

[justndav]

This story line is going to heat up again next week boys.... I think he confirms to Marlena that he is in fact gay... previously I think he told her he "might" be gay. This coming week he tells her, I believe, he IS gay. And I think his grandmother, Kate, confirms it as well.

[socalguy]

last week was the 1st time Will and Sonny connected beyond friendship when they were horsing around at the coffee house

[neoachilles]

Someone posted this on another thread, but I figured a little more exposure couldn't hurt. Here's the latest Will/Sonny clip.

[socalguy]

I'm slightly more attracted to Sonny then Will. What about you?

[neoachilles]

I have to go with my boy, Will. It gets so damn difficult to focus on his face whenever he wears those beautifully fitted tees. And for those who missed it Will finally came out...kind of (but not really).

[gtru1981]

I'm slightly more attracted to Sonny then Will. What about you?

I prefer Sonny over Will. Sonny is the type of guy (his looks) that I go after.

[ILLBFIRE]

Can TPTB bring back Uber Bitch Sami once again.

[socalguy]

here is an interview Chandler did for NBC.Com

[gtru1981]

Wilson is going to happen!!

[Kensei]

Keep posting the clips! I love watching this.

[neoachilles]

The latest in Will's saga:



God bless Marlena! Will tries to run away back into the closet, but she'll have none of it. When neither of his parents can be counted on to be there for him, Will's grandmothers pick up the slack.

[gr82talk2]

K im hooked as well! Im for team sonny. Is marlene fooling around with the other grannies husband? They sure are young healthy looking grandmas-nothing like i expected.

[neoachilles]

Sometimes I can't help it, and I need to catch these clips before they actually air. This is supposed to air today, but fuck it. Will finally says the magic words...

Will comes out to Sonny on 04-09 and they hug and sparks fly bewteen them.

[Davelandia]

Thank you for this thread and to those that are posting the clips. I really don't follow the show (I was an All My Children/One Life To Live fan), but I'm thrilled to have just watch these clips so I can keep up with this story line - I'll probably wind up being sucked into the rest of the show as a result, but thats OK. Can't wait to see what happens!

[neoachilles]

Will and Marlena discuss what it's like for him now that he's out of the closet.

[Kensei]

Maybe its my ridiculous fetish for blonds but Chandler Massey is SEXY! Wulf.

Will reminds me of myself in my coming out days back in high school. Props to him.

[gtru1981]

the big moment...Will comes out to Sonny and they hug with sparks flying!!

Thanks for posting. Woah. There were some serious sparks there weren't there!

[socalguy]

Here is Chandler's Face book link..full of interviews and even a picture of..well they share the same agent ..the person he is in the picture with is his younger brother and caz norfe..no joke! it might stir a fantasy or two with you horn dogs!

Don't be surprised if this story gets dropped. There's a big upheaval going on behind the scenes (writers fired, new writers hired, cast changes, etc.) and Greg Meng, the show's executive producer, had this to say in this week's issue of TV Guide:

TV Guide Magazine: Could it be possible that the mainstream Days audience does not want to watch the gay storyline and where it might be going? ABC claimed that was the case when One Life to Live suddenly dropped the Kish romance.
Meng: It's probably not the story that most women are going to tune in for every day, the one they don't want to miss. I think it's a story everybody likes, but the women want to see romance. Our goal is to get back lapsed viewers — our family of viewers who stopped watching altogether or aren't watching us every day.

Fuck the mainstream...if they do drop this storyline,it's yet another case of cowardice.Should this be the dominant storyline forever?Of course not but it hardly is the only one...you have more than enough straight couples to give sizzling storylines to.But can't we have at least one gay storyline that isn't over in a flash?Gay people that live in among the townspeople,and are accepted not as just the gay tokens who are sent out of sight and out of mind?I swear if that's the case,it's another travesty in the pathetic attempt of daytime to be relevant but pull back when some bigoted bitches start whining.Fuck you....I don't want intolerant people viewing,if your point of view there is no place for gays on daytime.The closet is open...fucking get the memo or fucking watch something else that isn't so offensive to your prejudiced little senses!Sorry for the rant,but I'm tired of these producers who instead of just tinkering here and there with a promising overall direction as Days has moved towards they fuck around with the writing,cast and focus and screw up potentially what could be a very positive development.

The cast is behind the gay storyline,wholeheartedly...you're getting wonderful performances by everyone involved especially Chandler Massey as Will and Deirdre Evans as his grandma Marlena(what a sweet and dynamic chemistry they have together)!I really,really hope that corporate spinelessless facing bigot harpies doesn't win out.Remember the good Christian bitches(One Million Concerned Christian Busybodies or whatever they were called)who tried to bully JC Penney to remove Ellen DeGeneres as their celebrity spokesperson and how JC Penney stood its ground and basically the whole campaign blew up in the faces of the haters(who were really just a front for the awful American Family Association)?You can't let the bigots win,especially if you're on the right side of history.Don't let this amazing storyline go to waste....especially with all those bullied teens who are seen as less than full Americans simply because they are gay or lesbians.Let there be at least a few times where we can proud because a positive,sensitive depiction of the transition of confusion to embracing sexuality can commence without the need to backtrack in fear of offending the bigots.I wish I could be more articulate here in expressing myself but hearing this defensiveness by that producer really gnaws at me....this has been the standard response to posiitive gay storylines and if people can't deal with it now,when will they?When do we stop giving in to those who won't open their eyes or hearts?It's like an apology to them...and there is NOTHING to be sorry for in trying to move forward and positively regarding a gay person's self discovery and self acceptance.

[Sausy]

One more thing...the actor that plays Sonny(Freddie Smith)who is also outstanding in this whole storyline was in another one on the new Beverly Hills 90210 sequel,which just as quickly was quietly disposed of.It's just appalling that time after time when there's an attempt to have a integration of gay characters in a storyline it's always pushed back.It was infuriating when Dynasty was on,that son Steven Carrington was in the closet,out of the closet,sexually neutered,in the closet again,out...time and time again,we progress then we are sent back to a closet not to be heard from again.ENOUGH!Obviously it's not life and death,being entertainment,in the grand scheme of things but it's the principle.Well it's time we push back...this far and NO further!I would like to find a way to help NBC know that there may be some bigots who may want the gays out of Salem,or at least only in the background and barely heard from...but there are others who love all the characters,love the romance but also love the dealing with real life issues,and having room for people like gay characters,who are interelated with characters we already love.I'm just so tired of others throwing us under the bus,for the sake of satisfying a "mainstream"that live in a world of judgement and intolerance.Again.sorry for the Samantha Brady moment,but come on already,NBC!

[socalguy]

I think the gay story stays, it was already in the works when these old but now new head writers were still writing and the old current head writter just picked up the story, so I do not expect it to be axed..i hope im right

People are freaking out its getting dropped...it isnt folks!!

The new writing team was the old before the reboot and brought in Freddie Smith to play Sonny and told the guy who plays Will in Feb of 2011 they are making him gay.

Just dont plan on seeing it 5 times a day, that is all they are saying.

[Sausy]

Thanks socal and my fellow Mets fan gtru!So often a gay storyline is introduced and pulled back and/or discarded because some fans get outraged,was afraid this could be yet the latest.Thankfully as you say it isn't,or certainly doesn't appear,to be the case here.Guess you can tell I'm a Samantha Brady fan,lol!Anyway,of course no one would expect the story to be the most dominant at all times,just hope it's blended in as wonderfully compelling as it's being played now.The best thing about these characters is how they are woven into families and relationships we've been familiar with for years...the Bradys,Hortons,and Kiriakis families have been among the more prominent ones for decades now,and it's not just out of the blue.Love so many of the cast but here's hoping that there will still be considerable growth for development in however they want to explore the relationship,between Will and Sonny.
