Agreed, that a half hour would be best. Don’t set this up to fail. 

Why? There's less ad money with a half hour and unlike BOLD no international type press etc  to build a brand

Soccer pre-emptions hurt CBS this week. 

Sorry Toups but that's an excuse lol. It was on here. and like Ron said it happened a few weeks before  and they went up

It was the Zende rape story too and the Shelia/Steffy fight that week.

Yep 3 days of Runa/Zende then boom Steffy and Sheila lol

Ouch at B&B numbers.

A 1.7 HH and over 200,000 lost viewers... Yikes!

Get in here @Jeff @dragonflies

Just saw it on Twitter, they couldn't even get a bump for Steffy/Sheila, cause people probably figured there'd be more Argh Jay. 2 days and no lead up to it. f*cking stupid lol 

I'm glad but at the same time my ATWT loving heart hurts regarding P&G and their involvement lol 

It would make more sense to put the Gates between YR and BOLD as kind of "book ends" for the new soap 

Do you think it's possible they might be allowed to do a location shoot now & then? 

My reaction anytime Lil Puke runs his mouth, and what a joke he is. Talking about being a husband when all he did was walk out on Steffy etc

Yep I agree. That's what prime time used to do with new shows, premiere them after a high rated well established show

They all look good. But I would think they would put it between Y&R and B&B. Most people are used to Y&R as a lead in, put in new soap so people can get a taste or even put it there to make those B&B fans wait. and while they wait...oops...look! a new soap! 

I think it's got a better shot at succeeding if it's on after YR than after BOLD(which can barely hold onto a good portion of YR's audience as it is)

I just hope it's not in some random time slot. I remember when I was a teen, Generations was on at 11 am where I lived, so odd lol 

I can't see them doing it as a half hour TBH

The Talk wouldn't work as a 30 minute format. I think it's done if this gets picked up

It could be YR, BOLD then the Gates, if the Gates is an hour just to fill the 2-3 time slot. It would make more sense for it to follow YR given it's the higher rated soap 

Ooh a new soap I can watch from episode 1 on TV. I haven't been able to do this since Port Charles first debuted lol 

I just wish CBS cared about the POC characters on their current soaps, cause the writing for them is abysmal 

Ooh will they be able to have cross overs with the current CBS soaps? 

Someone on Twitter said they need a "big name" for the Gates. Debbi Morgan, VR or whomever

Hate to say it because I like some of the folks over there, but 2:00 p.m. ET/1:00 p.m. PT. Unless, CBS opts to shift B&B to 2:30 with the new soap following Y&R. It's not unheard of since Y&R starts at the half-hour mark as well.

That would make more sense TBH

I wonder if Shemar would be up for doing another soap even short term? SWAT is about to end 

What time slot do you think it would air in @Errol 

Gotcha @Errol

So could this lead to us getting ATWT, GL, P&G owned soaps in some kind of streaming???
