    "Perfect"
    By LauraOosterin, Feb 21, 2012
    I've already watched the very last episode on 9/18/2010,Tonite the very last episode is being aired in the Netherlands. I still love it to pieces, and it definitely helped me to get through some of the toughest times i've had in my life and trust they were tough.. Not only on 9/18/2010 i've cried, i also cried when it was official that the show would in US and everytime i think about losing the best drama-series there was that i actually watched... I'm even crying now. Anyway i'm also gonna cry tonite.
    I'm happy to call myself a true loyal happy emotional fan of As The World Turns... I never wanted to miss a single episode, and if i did i watched it back without subtitles of course.. (that's what annoys me while living in the Netherlands.. THE FREAKY SUBTITLES)moreless

    I really miss As The World Turns. I used to look forward to all the plots, especially Luke and Noah's every day. I first discovered this show back on Youtube in 2008 and I can honestly say that it changed my life. I feel like it gave me the power to be confident and more open about my sexuality; it allowed me to come out as a homosexual to my family and friends, it showed me that it was alright to be myself and let me know that I wasn't alone. It showed me that views and opinions on same sex couples were changing and for that, I thank this show as it'll always hold a place in my heart.moreless

    I loved this show until..... Kissing cousins and the gays have ruined this show. I will not continue watching this unnatural show and this at one time was the best all around soap. If the show doesn't change it would be better off to end in September. When it first started was before my time but my grave to see grandmother and my mom both watched the show but my family would turn over in their what filth has come to this show. Get rid of kissing cuz and gays then grasp the old days when it was good. :)moreless
