  1. Three hours after I got the PR (yes, I was sitting on it), and I'm still crying.

    Just now, Mona Kane Croft said:

    Almost unbelievable news!  I just pray it will be a 30-minute show.  I don't think the genre or the audience is strong enough for a new 60-minute soap to survive in 2024. 

    Wishful casting thoughts are incredible.  I'm excited to say the least!!

    I'll take either option, but you're point is valid. It would be easier to sell a daily soap as a half-hour one, but they need another half-hour show to work it in the schedule. The only other "half-hour" show they have is Drew Barrymore, but that's only based on a technicality, and the show airs way too early in the morning on the CBS Owned stations for it to help in any way (if at all). That, and Drew is syndicated.

    Although it moved down a slot, #TheGates is now part of the "Soap operas - Trending" category on X (formerly Twitter):

  2. What I find most interesting about The Gates, besides P&G being back in the game, is that we have never truly had a "showrunner" for a daytime soap since maybe William J. Bell for Y&R/B&B. And, I don't ever recall five executive producers for a daytime soap opera. So, this seems different. Modern. In a good way.

    Not to confusing, there was a series called The Gates in 2010:

    I'm just not going to get to excited....

     

    Yeah, when I first saw the title I was taken aback. While the title could eventually change, CBS did not indicate this as a "working title" as networks tend to do when they aren't sure on a name for a show. As an example, last's week's spinoff of NCIS with Tony and Ziva. It doesn't have a title yet.

    Plus, opposite General Hospital in some areas. I forgot about The Talk honestly.

    The biggest markets have GH in its original slot, which would be after this potential new series.

    That said, if this does go to series, in the markets GH does air at 2:00, this could mark the first time since DAYS was on TV that soaps will go head to head, and the first time in a complete head to head battle since ATWT/OLTL were on at 2:00 p.m., if this is where it goes and if it is ordered.

    Who's __ do I got to suck or eat to get this series ordered at CBS? Haha.

    Balls in your court ABC...you know GMA3 is not long for this Earth.

    I had a cheeky thought and giggled. What if we get Angie, Jessie, VR as someone new and like, Jessica Griffin?😂 Every living black actor who has done soaps in the recent past may come out for this.

    Let’s discuss Procter & Gamble’s role in this. Did they hear me cursing them out for years for their abandonment of soaps and how they’ve been foolishly ignoring opportunities to create venues to advertise their own products? It would be good if they could have a separate streaming platform from CBS but somehow I don’t think they’re that smart.

    After the pandemic, they need a show to get people to buy their products through. Saves them money from having to spend it on advertising the products themselves. Just saying...

    So you think it'll be an hour? 

    I wouldn't expect anything less. They'd have to develop another show to fill an hour slot, or have B&B finally become an hour which won't happen due to international distribution deals.

    The fact CBS will actually OWN a soap opera for the first time ever, even more reason to make it an hour. More ad dollars and better for streaming eye balls to keep people tuned in and subscribed.

    So will we be seeing and hearing this again? It's so damn classic!!

     

    I loved that sound at the end. I don't know why.

    Keep in mind, instead of PGP... it's now P&G Studios. This is the BIGGEST part of the story, IMO. This means they are back in the TV production game after being out for awhile, at least in scripted content.

  8. Also, keep in mind the show is IN DEVELOPMENT. This does not mean it has been given a series order or handed a pilot just yet. This is a big turn of events in that instead of game shows/talk shows being developed to possibly replace a soap, we're actually getting a soap that might replace a talk show...

  9. Here's the facts:

    The Gates

    • First soap in development since launch of "Passions" in 1999.
    • First soap in development at CBS since launch of "The Bold and the Beautiful" in 1987.
    • First soap about a Black family created by and executive produced by a Black person and Black woman.
    • First soap about with Black people as central figures since the launch of "Generations" in 1989.
    • P&G Studios is a partner in the CBS Studios/NAACP Venture for this potential series.
    • Michele Val Jean remains the first and only Black female head writer of a daytime drama series, and will also add showrunner/executive producer credits as a first as well. Sheila Ducksworth is co-EP and is also Black.

    Will add more later...

  10. CBS, CBS Broadcasting, CBS Television Network, CBS Broadcast Network

    For the first time since at least 1999, a brand new daytime soap opera is closer to making its way to broadcast television. CBS Studios and NAACP Venture announced today they are developing a new daytime drama series for the CBS Television Network titled “The Gates,” with veteran writer Michele Val Jean (“The Bold and the Beautiful,” “General Hospital”) set as writer and showrunner. 

    Val Jean, who exited “The Bold and the Beautiful” last month as a scriptwriter after writing more than 2,000 episodes of daytime dramas and winning multiple Daytime Emmy and WGA Awards, will also serve as an executive producer for “The Gates” alongside Sheila Ducksworth, Leon Russell, Derrick Johnson and Kimberly Doebereiner.

    The potential series will follow the lives of a wealthy Black family in a posh, gated community. It will be produced by the CBS Studios/NAACP production venture in partnership with P&G Studios, a division of Procter & Gamble. P&G, in particular, might sound familiar to soap fans as the company helped pioneer the genre with the likes of “As The World Turns,” “Guiding Light,” and “Another World.”

    “‘The Gates’ will be everything we love about daytime drama, from a new and fresh perspective,” said Sheila Ducksworth, president of the CBS Studios NAACP venture. “This series will salute an audience that has been traditionally underserved, with the potential to be a groundbreaking moment for broadcast television. With multi-dimensional characters, juicy storylines and Black culture front and center, ‘The Gates’ will have impactful representation, one of the key touchstones of the venture.”

    Speaking more on CBS and P&G’s involvement, along with the NAACP, Ducksworth added, “I’m excited to develop this project with CBS and P&G, two of the longest and most passionate champions of broadcast and daytime television, and the NAACP, whose enduring commitment to Black voices and artists is both powerful and inspiring. I also want to thank CBS’ George Cheeks, NAACP’s Derrick Johnson and P&G’s Marc Pritchard for their personal involvement and support to take our next step forward with ‘The Gates.’”

    CBS Studios’ production venture and development deal with the NAACP was established to elevate a diverse range of voices and increase the visibility of Black artists on broadcast and streaming platforms in an ever-evolving media landscape.

    The news of “The Gates” comes as CBS announced last week a four-year deal to keep network television’s highest-rated and most-watched daytime drama series, “The Young and the Restless,” on the air through at least the 2027-2028 broadcast television season. “The Bold and the Beautiful” also received a one-year extension on its current deal, keeping it on the network through at least the 2024-2025 television season.

    With the pickups at CBS, other daytime dramas are currently seeing security at their respective platforms and networks, with “Days of our Lives” contracted at Peacock through September 2025. Meanwhile, “General Hospital” doesn’t officially receive renewal orders at ABC as the network owns the series outright. Craig Erwich, President, Disney Television Group, overseeing content strategy across ABC Entertainment, Disney Branded Television, Freeform and Hulu Originals programming, recently stated the network was “deeply committed” to the show.

  11. Brian Gaskill, Seth, The Young and the Restless, The Young & the Restless, Young and the Restless, Young & the Restless, Young and Restless, Young & Restless, Y&R, #YR, #YoungandRestless

    With his character being pushed into oncoming traffic on the Tuesday, March 5 episode, thereby killing him off, actor Brian Gaskill has confirmed that his time in Genoa City as Seth on “The Young and the Restless” has ended.

    In a message posted on his Instagram page, Gaskill said, “Between social media and the Internet in general, news travels ridiculously fast these days …so… yeah, that happened…(and if you haven’t seen yet, please watch… I hear Los Angeles might be preempted… so check out Paramount+ or look for Times).”

    “I had a great time on ‘Young and the Restless’ with the producers, directors, publicity department, and other actors,” added Gaskill in his post. “And it was incredible to see so much support from all of my friends on social media, who have been following along over the years… So grateful for all of you. Now let’s see what comes next…”

    Gaskill made his first on-air appearance on the Monday, January 8 episode of “The Young and the Restless,” when viewers learned his character would be interacting with Melody Thomas Scott’s Nikki Newman as one of the AA meeting members she connects with.

    In an interview with TV Insider at the time, Gaskill said of his co-star, “Melody has been incredibly inviting and kind, a joy to work with,” while noting, “It feels amazing to be back [on a soap set].”

    “It’s Only the Beginning” of The End

    Last week, Gaskill told followers on X (formerly Twitter) that “it’s only the beginning” when discussing what’s next in his storyline. It turns out he meant it was the beginning of the end for his character, mainly as Jordan (Colleen Zenk) was on to Seth and the secret plan he made with Nikki, leaving her with no choice but to get rid of him before getting herself caught by the authorities. To keep things simple, she made it appear that Seth had offed himself with his alleged last words being for her to tell Nikki that he was sorry, a lie she cooked up to throw off suspicion that she pushed him.

    Although Seth might be out of the picture, that doesn’t mean Jordan has an easy road ahead, even with her changing disguises. On the Friday, March 8 episode, Victor (Eric Braeden) gives her an ultimatum. What kind of ultimatum? You’ll have to tune in to find out!

    Before appearing on “The Young and the Restless,” Gaskill is probably best known to soap fans for his role as Bobby Warner on “All My Children” or Rafe Kovitch on “Port Charles.” Following the cancellation of the latter series, Gaskill was cast as Oscar “Ozzy” Marone on “The Bold and the Beautiful.” He would later have roles in “As The World Turns” (playing B.J. Green) and “Guiding Light” (playing Dylan Lewis).

    Gaskill first made a name for himself in Hollywood when he played David Michaels in the short-lived primetime series “Models Inc.,” a spinoff of “Melrose Place.” He most recently appeared on “The Bay” as Chase Walker, followed by roles in such primetime shows as “Castle” and “Casual,” among others.

    On the Monday, March 4 episode of “The Talk,” “The Bold and the Beautiful” star Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (Steffy Forrester) sat down with co-hosts Amanda Kloots and Sheryl Underwood to discuss the latest developments on the daytime drama series, particularly Steffy stabbing Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown).

    In response to the show deciding to kill off the iconic villain, Wood said, “I was in complete shock…but like Steffy, I mean, ding-dong the witch is dead. This is what needed to happen. As for Steffy’s husband, who also happens to be Sheila’s biological son, Wood notes, “Steffy needs Finn [Tanner Novlan] to man up. She needs her man to stand up for what is going on because it’s absolutely crazy. Sheila terrorized their family for so long, so, and Steffy honestly doesn’t want to have to murder Finn, too.”

    Considering Kloots recently made a guest appearance on the soap, playing the mom of real-life son Elvis, who appeared as a playdate for Steffy and Liam’s (Scott Clifton) daughter, Kelly (), one wonders if we’ll be seeing more of the talk show host, fitness specialist and actress on the series soon, which Wood would like to see happen. 

    “I’d love for you to come back. We had so much that day,” shared Wood of working with Kloots. “Steffy needs a really good girlfriend.”

    Speaking of kids, Wood shares details on how she manages life with four kids, saying, “I am nonstop, but I think like us as women, we just take on so much…I like to try to stay healthy and active when I can, and then I have little mom hacks here and there.” For example, Wood commented, “One of my things, I like to freeze my kids’ toys. So that gives me like 45 minutes in the morning because I do love my coffee, I treat myself…you have to hack your way through life.” 

    Watch a clip from Wood’s appearance on “The Talk” below.

  14. Austin Stowell, Mark Harmon, NCIS: Origins, NCIS, CBS, #NCIS, #NCISCBS

    First announced in early January, CBS has given a series order for “NCIS: Origins,” which takes place in 1991, years before the events of “NCIS” and follows a young Leroy Jethro Gibbs (narrated by Mark Harmon) through his career as a newly minted special agent at the fledgling NCIS Camp Pendleton office, where he forges his place on a gritty, ragtag team led by NCIS legend Mike Franks. Playing a young Gibbs will be Austin Stowell, the network announced today.

    ​​Stowell’s television credits include “A Friend of the Family,” “The Hating Game” opposite Lucy Hale, and “Breathe.” He also starred opposite George Clooney, Chris Abbott and Hugh Laurie in the limited series “Catch 22,” the Steven Spielberg anthology series “Amazing Stories,” and “Public Morals,” which was also executive produced by Spielberg and Ed Burns.

    Sowell’s feature film credits include “Battle of the Sexes” alongside Emma Stone, “Bridge of Spies” with Tom Hanks, “This Tempting Madness,” “12 Strong” opposite Chris Hemsworth and Michael Shannon, as well as the Academy Award-winning “Whiplash” with JK Simmons, which was nominated for Best Picture and won the Audience and Grand Jury Prize at Sundance 2014. Additional credits include “Fantasy Island,” the indie award-winning drama “Swallow,” and “Colossal” with Anne Hathaway and Jason Sudeikis.

    Produced by CBS studios, “NCIS: Origins” is set to be executive produced by Mark Harmon, Sean Harmon, David J. North and Gina Lucita Monreal, with North and Monreal co-writing the premiere episode and serving as co-showrunners.

    “We are elated and honored to continue the expansion of the NCIS universe in such a unique and unexpected way,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment, announcing the series order in January. “Viewers can look forward to Mark Harmon returning to CBS to narrate the complex and mysterious backstory of Leroy Jethro Gibbs’ early years in ‘NCIS: Origins,’ which will build on the rich legacy of this character while reintroducing fan-favorite characters and meeting new ones.”

    “There’s no denying the cultural and global phenomenon of the NCIS franchise for the last 20 years,” said David Stapf, president of CBS Studios, in his own statement at the time. “When Sean and Mark approached us all with this exciting expansion of the universe – exploring a young Gibbs – we knew it was the next story that needed to be told. We also couldn’t be luckier to have Gina and David at the helm as co-showrunners who are not only brilliant and adept writers, but know this character and universe so well.”

    “We’re thrilled to be bringing this new chapter to life along with Mark and Sean Harmon,” said executive producers and co-showrunners Gina Lucita Monreal and David J. North. “This really is the making of Leroy Jethro Gibbs. And even the most dedicated NCIS fans will discover that they don’t know the whole story.”

    “The character of Gibbs has been an important part of my life for 20 years, both in watching my father craft the role and previously having the honor to play young Gibbs myself,” added executive producer Sean Harmon. “I always felt there was a tale worth telling about his earlier years, so I am thrilled to be stepping into a producing role alongside Gina, David and my dad as we tell this story and reveal a new side of this beloved character.”

    During the 2022-2023 television season, it is estimated that the “NCIS” franchise had over 300 million worldwide viewers across all platforms, including broadcast, cable, streaming and syndication (according to Nielsen and internal data). In spring 2024, the franchise will celebrate its thousandth episode.

    Last week, it was announced that Paramount+ would be the home of another “NCIS” series, starring original recipe alums Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly. The untitled spinoff follows Tony DiNozzo (Weatherly) and Ziva David (de Pablo), who have been raising their daughter, Tali, together. Only after Tony’s security company is attacked do they find themselves running across Europe trying to figure out who is after them and maybe even learn to trust each other again if only so they can finally have their unconventional happily ever after.

    Both “NCIS: Origins” and the untitled “NCIS” spinoff starring de Pablo and Weatherly are set to premiere during the 2024-2025 television season on CBS and Paramount+, respectively.

  15. CBS, Justin Hartley, Tracker, #Tracker

    Airing just four episodes since premiering after the Super Bowl last month, CBS has given an early second season renewal to “Tracker,” which has emerged to become this season’s most-watched new series and the most-watched new series overall since the series debut of “Young Sheldon.”

    When factoring in Nielsen’s Most Current Data (including Live+7), on average, 16 million viewers are tuning in for each episode, making “Tracker” the most-watched new drama since the 2014-2015 season debut of FOX’s “Empire” (17.33 million) and the most-watched new show since “Young Sheldon” (16.49 million) during the 2017-2018 broadcast television season. On streaming, the series was the no.1 show on Paramount in February.

    “‘Tracker’ kicked off our premiere week with a ratings bang and has kept the momentum going,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. “We knew we had something special when we saw the very first cut of the series and the overwhelming audience response confirms it. We couldn’t be more grateful to Justin, the talented cast, the incredible writing and producing teams and our partners at 20th Television for such compelling episodes. And, of course, we’re also so thankful to the millions of viewers tuning in each week.”

    According to Nielsen, 30 million multiplatform viewers have now watched the first episode, including the Thursday, February 15 rebroadcast. On Sunday, March 3, the show’s fourth episode ranked a solid no.1 among all television shows. It was primetime’s most-watched program with 7.44 million viewers, up +8% compared to week three, marking the third consecutive week in which the series grew among Total Viewers. The show also posted its largest audience of the season in its regular time slot and improved it by 83% year-over-year.

    Starring Justin Hartley (“The Young and the Restless,” “Passions”) as Colter Shaw, “Tracker” follows a lone-wolf survivalist who roams the country as a reward seeker, using his expert tracking skills to help private citizens and law enforcement solve all manner of mysteries while contending with his own fractured family. The series is based on the bestselling novel “The Never Game” by Jeffery Deaver.

    Justin Hartley, Ken Olin, Elwood Reid and Ben Winters serve as executive producers.

    Check out a sneak peek at the next all-new episode of “Tracker,” airing Sunday, March 17 on CBS – the show is preempted on Sunday, March 10 due to ABC’s airing of the Oscars.

    “Tracker” airs Sundays at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. Stream Live and On Demand on Paramount+.

  18. Effective Monday, March 4, the Discuss Previews and Spoilers forum will maintain a form of consistency in line with the Discuss the Soaps forum.

    As with the parent forum, each month anyone can create a monthly discussion thread for each soap opera, but in this case it is pure spoilers discussion. Individual episode discussions will continue in their respective threads found in DTS.

    This does not mean that spoilers can only be discussed or shared in the individual spoiler threads. Instead, it provides a place for people to read the latest happenings on each soap in one clear and concise location. Major casting news, promos, etc. can still be posted as their own separate thread within the Discuss Previews and Spoilers forum. Promos, casting news, etc. can also be discussed in the monthly threads, too. Overall, the idea is to continue driving discussion while maintaining a layout that is easy to find what you are looking for.

    To aide posters with spoiler discussions relating to content published by reputable outlets, listed below is a sample list of reputable publications and/or websites curated by the SON Administration.

    Sample Reputable Publications/Websites:

    • Soap Opera Network
    • Soap Opera Digest
    • Soaps In Depth
    • Daytime Confidential
    • Soap Hub
    • Michael Fairman TV
    • Deadline
    • TV Insider
    • TV Line
    • PEOPLE
    • TV Guide
    • Entertainment Weekly

    Note: Reputable publications/websites are not limited to the above. This is just a sample of outlets we find reputable and/or valuable for discussing what's about to happen on your favorite daytime soap operas. Spoilers coming from verifiable and reputable publications (sample list above) must include a link and/or appropriate credit.

    As always, discussions should remain on topic. Personal attacks against posters and real life people is unacceptable behavior and can lead to a suspension or your posting privileges will be removed. Additionally, the ignore setting is your friend. Use it.

    We hope this change is a positive one.
