  1. I also adjusted the edit limit recently. I made it 60 minutes after publishing. I didn't realize people were editing posts after the fact. I will also re-assess and figure out a fair number. Will get back to you.
  2. Thank you for letting me know. I made some changes to the settings but was unaware that some of y'all were utilizing the board to upload so many files. I will re-assess the limits to see what is a fair number. Just keep in mind we're not Google Drive. Our storage capacity does have some limits, specifically when it comes to what is being shared by users. A few pictures, gifs, here and there are fine. But Large files should not be uploaded here.

  6. The character names released today are the official names of the characters. No way a big release like that would be revised within hours from a post on Instagram. I believe Michele posted an older screenshot she took off of her computer screen with the headshots of the three actresses shared as part of a family tree. I believe the character names she has under them are the names of the characters at the point they auditioned or were submitted for. No information at this time as the premiere date is no longer penciled in for January. As I previously stated, it is now just "early 2025." That could still end up being in January, or it can be anytime through even April. We'll know more about scheduling once we know an official premiere date.
  7. Right. Didn't catch that one before. So, "Jessica" (now Nicole) and "Sam" have a daughter named "Allison": “Allison” is described as Black, female and in her mid- to late 20s. She’s the miracle baby that Jessica and Sam never thought they’d have. Not surprisingly, Allison has been indulged all her life. She’s spoiled, as a result. She can be dismissive towards those she considers beneath her. Confident and secure, Allison doesn’t like sharing. However, all that may change in the near future… https://www.tvinsider.com/1151054/the-gates-new-characters-descriptions-cbs/
  8. It is valid. I agree. My earlier response was not meant in any way to invalidate that. My earlier reply was only meant to say that Black comes in all varieties and that at least in the case of Karla, she's as Black as me. I am far from "light skin." The light-skinned people I've seen heavily used on TV typically are those who are either mixed race or very similar. I expect with additional casting announcements, we'll even see some darker skin compared to the ladies, but overall, Black is still Black.
  9. Anita is definitely Betty based on the description of "Patrick." If the Jacksons were the core family described previously, then yes, Dupree is their new family name. Name changes happen for a lot of reasons, including the retitling of the show's name, but I have a few suspicions about why they changed it from Jackson.
  10. I'm still trying to figure out what the hell the official name is for the CBS/NAACP Venture. They always refer to it by "the CBS Studios/NAACP Venture," which makes no sense in terms of a business name. I wonder if they'll just call it CBS Studios/NAACP Venture Productions or something like that. Or if it will be CBS Studios in one card, followed by NAACP in another. It's so weird. That being said, I LOVED the PGP closing. It was the only way I felt the episode of their dramas was truly over for that day's airing.
  11. What's good about Anita is that she is a Diana Ross-type character with a singing background, and Tamara can sure as hell pull that off as she also sings. As I said to someone when I got wind of the news yesterday, I wouldn't be surprised to see The Gates release a "Music from the Series" soundtrack (Season 1) with Tunie and others singing, possibly. It would be a great marketing tie-in and would fit the culture very well.
  12. Beyond The Gates will be available on Paramount+ at launch. I believe in territories without Paramount+, original series are available on the local Prime Video service.
  13. We're all good. No arguments. All view points are valid and welcome. 😀 BTG, here we go! 😁
  14. Correct. I inquired about that but they aren't budging on why they aren't saying January anymore. My presumption is election matters pushing it or delaying it, so they are waiting for the results in November first.
  15. Karla is about my complexion, so I guess I'm light-skinned? All I'm saying is that being on TV makes people appear lighter than they actually are, not that they aren't already themselves.
  16. We come in all shapes, sizes and colors. If you met them in person, you wouldn't necessarily say this. The camera always lightens people up.
  17. Yes, based on the description for Dani: As for Nicole's sister, Dani (Mosley), she's a former model turned "momager" who gave up her career for love. As the Dupree family's wild child, the free-spirited, headstrong and uninhibited Dani dropped out of school to pursue a high-flying modeling career, and she has always marched to the beat of her own drum. https://www.soapoperanetwork.com/2024/09/michele-val-jean-cbs-the-gates-retitled-beyond-the-gates
  18. Descriptions for them were never fully released. Only the husband of Daphnee's Nicole and the daughter of Karla's Dani were. There's Sam: “Sam” is a brilliant plastic surgeon. He works out of Garland Memorial and also runs an ultra-exclusive private practice that he opened with his long-time friend and fellow plastic surgeon, Lester Fine. Sam has created an impeccable life which includes having an impeccable wife whom he cherishes. They got through a rough patch, but now, Sam sleeps well at night. He’s secure that the past will never disrupt his current perfect world. Sam is Nicole's surgeon husband https://www.tvinsider.com/1148106/the-gates-characters-casting-cbs/ And there's “Cheryl” is a Black female in her early 20s. She has been a successful fashion model since she was 18 even though she’s been reluctant to work in that field. Cheryl has been tasked with recreating the world that her mother, Sara, gave up. While modeling may not be her desire in life, Cheryl has made a good deal of money. She has a dream to design a line of purses, building her brand in the process, and eventually design a chic but affordable clothing line. Cheryl’s no stranger to coke, which she considers to be the perfect drug. Cheryl, however, can put it down whenever she wants… Cheryl is Dani's daughter, although you can see that Dani used to be named "Sara" https://www.tvinsider.com/1151054/the-gates-new-characters-descriptions-cbs/
  19. Correct. The original name for Antia was "Betty," BTW. Now I know why they had that weird embargo lift time of 7:48 a.m. ET. Haha. Since I live in LA right now, that was 4:48 a.m. PT. Which is why I fell asleep at the last minute.
  20. Also, #BeyondTheGates is the official hashtag to be used on social media, per CBS. Facebook and Instagram pages have been created, but are not active. Will share the link when they are officially available.
  21. (fell asleep, missed embargo lift by an hour...oh well, [!@#$%^&*] happens). New Details Announced (TL; DR): "The Gates" is now called "Beyond The Gates." Key Art/Logo for "Beyond The Gates" released. Soap alums Tamara Tunie ("As The World Turns"), Daphnee Duplaix ("One Life to Live," "Passions") and Karla Mosley are the first actors officially cast by the show. "Beyond The Gates" is a one-hour daytime drama. The series is set to premiere in early 2025. Previously, CBS announced it would debut in January 2025. CBS has formally announced the series will begin production later this fall in Atlanta; confirming the film location (city), but not studio. Robert Guza Jr. ("General Hospital," "Sunset Beach") and Julie Carruthers ("All My Children," "Port Charles") are officially confirmed as executive producers, joining a team led by creator, showrunner, and executive producer Michele Val Jean, and fellow executive producers Sheila Ducksworth, Leon Russell, Derrick Johnson and Kimberly Doebereiner. Anna Saalfeld is also a new addition to the executive producer team, having never been previously announced. This makes it eight executive producers behind "Beyond The Gates," the most for a daytime drama series ever. P&G Studios, a division of Procter & Gamble, remains on board as a partner on the series which is being developed and produced by the CBS Studios/NAACP Venture, led by Ducksworth. An official synopsis has been released for "Beyond The Gates." For the full story, click here. Note: "BTG" will be the official acronym used for "Beyond The Gates" on the SON Community. Posts/threads created should always start with "BTG:" going forward. For reference, the current soap acronyms are "B&B" (The Bold and the Beautiful), "DAYS" (Days of our Lives"), "GH" (General Hospital") and "Y&R" (The Young and the Restless). Michele Val Jean’s CBS Daytime Drama ‘The Gates’ Retitled ‘Beyond The Gates’, Sets Early 2025 Launch Tamara Tunie Returns To Daytime Playing Family Matriarch In CBS Drama ‘Beyond The Gates’ Soap Alums Karla Mosley & Daphnee Duplaix Join ‘Beyond The Gates’
  22. CBS’ new daytime drama series “Beyond The Gates” has cast soap alums Karla Mosley and Daphnee Duplaix as “Dani Dupree” and “Dr. Nicole Dupree Richardson,” respectively, daughters of the Dupree family matriarch, “Anita,” played by “As The World Turns” alum Tamara Tunie (ex-Jessica Griffin). A former model turned “momager” who gave up her career for love, Dani (Mosley) is the Dupree family’s wild child, who’s also free-spirited, headstrong and uninhibited. Dropping out of school to pursue a high-flying modeling career, she has always marched to the beat of her own drum. Meanwhile, Nicole (Duplaix) exudes warmth, empathy and compassion. Although her seemingly perfect life includes being married to a surgeon husband, not everything is as it appears on the outside… inside. Tamara Tunie Emilio Madrid As for Dani and Nicole’s mother, Antia (Tunie) is the family’s matriarch who at one time was a famous singer. Since leaving that life behind, Anita has worked hard for her success, while also raising two daughters with her now-retired senator husband. Underneath her glamorous and refined exterior, there is a fierceness she’s gained from her humble beginnings in Chicago. “Beyond The Gates” tells the story of the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. Set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States, “Beyond The Gates” is where viewers will find a posh gated community filled with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions that the wealthy call home. Behind the pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. As for those living outside the gates, they are indeed watching closely. For every person who has “made it,” there are always those who have not. Follow the characters as they live, love, work, and play, all while trying to navigate life, some more gracefully than others. Best known for her portrayal as Maya Avant on “The Bold and the Beautiful,” Mosley’s credits include “Gossip Girl,” “Hart of Dixie,” “Deadly Cheer Mom” and “Burn After Reading,” among others. She made her daytime television debut in 2008, playing Christina Moore on “Guiding Light.” As a voice actress, she voiced roles in the 2020 hit video game “Spider-Man: Miles Morales.” In 2021, she received rave reviews from fans when she subbed for Mishael Morgan in the role of Amanda Sinclair on “The Young and the Restless.” As for Duplaix, she’s making a return to daytime after previously portraying Rachel Gannon on “One Life to Live” and Valerie Davis on “Passions.” Her other credits include roles in such shows as “Harry’s Law,” “CSI: NY,” “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,” “The District” and “Half & Half,” among others. Interestingly, the NAACP recognized both actresses with a nomination in the Outstanding Actress in a Daytime Drama Series category for their previous daytime work – Mosley for Maya Avant on “The Bold and the Beautiful” in 2014, and Duplaix for Rachel Gannon on “One Life to Live” in 2010. Created by Michele Val Jean, who also serves as showrunner/executive producer, “Beyond The Gates” is produced by the CBS Studios/NAACP Venture, led by Sheila Ducksworth, in partnership with P&G Studios, a division of Procter & Gamble. Robert Guza Jr. (“General Hospital,” “Sunset Beach”), Julie Carruthers (“All My Children,” “Port Charles”), Leon Russell, Derrick Johnson, Kimberly Doebereiner and Anna Saalfeld are set as executive producers alongside Val Jean and Ducksworth.
