I just realized the only contract player we haven't seen yet is Alex Alegria who is Tomas Navarro. I assume we'll meet him soon. But two episodes in and I love BTG so much already.

That's very interesting about Ryan Quan leaving DAYS. I have followed his career from Passions to DAYS. GH needs all the help it can get in the writers room, so I wish him much luck and success over there.

I'm actually off today and it's just airing on the CBS affiliate here in San Diego. How odd it's already up on Paramount+

So, I was finally able to watch the first episode of BTG. It definitely did not disappoint and achieved the goal of leaving me wanting more. All of the characters presented today intrigued me and I can't wait to learn more about them. Brava, to MVJ, SD, JHC and everyone associated with this production 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I'm thrilled we all get to experience this together 🥳🥳🥳

Happy Birthday 🥳🥳🥳 You're getting the best present ever with Beyond The Gates 🎊🎊🎊

I am not worried about RC at all. BTG is MVJ's show. RC is just a very very very small part of the collaboration. The ideas are not his, so I am not bothered by his presence. Maybe in this environment it will rejuvenate him and bring out a new side of creativity. Only time will tell. As for the show itself, I cannot believe we are less than 48 hours away from a brand new daytime soap opera. That's such a big freaking deal that I salute, support, and applaud 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. Let's go 🥳🥳🥳

I absolutely love it too. I haven't been this excited for a new show in forever. Is it Monday yet??? 😂😂😂

So, what I did hear clearly is, there are 20 contract players and 20 recurring players, as per Julie Hanan Carruthers. That implies to me JL and CM are going to be heavily recurring.

OMG, me too!!! I have watched it three times LOL I get more and more excited as we approach the premiere.

🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾

I'll be at work tomorrow, so I won't be able to watch live. But, I did take Monday off for the premiere.

I tried watching the special live on Paramount+ at 2pm on our local affiliate and it kept glitching,so it never came on. At 2:30pm B&B unfortunately aired. I was finally able to watch it on Paramount+ and it was more than I could have ever imagined. I am already so proud of this show.

Thank you so much for this!!!

I have to wait 2 1/2 hours to see it 😭😭😭

You and me both. I want BTG to come out like gangbusters.

All of this news today and the BTG brunch has been just perfect. My day has been made for sure. And I think we got a snippet of the theme music, that has thrilled me to bits.

Yay!!! 🥳🥳🥳

Brad needs to fire Michael Minnis as Co-Headwriter and I suggest Patrick Mulcahey as the replacement. That would really shake things up in the best way.

So exciting 🥳🤗🤗

Thank you for clarifying. I appreciate it.

With all due respect, DEI is not crap. I have no intention of relinquishing any power to the far right. My plan is to enjoy the show and support it wholeheartedly.

I've been sick all week with the flu (Totally Sucks btw) and I have been anxiously awaiting the news Errol mentioned earlier in the week. Being home all week has been beyond boring and awful but when I've been up to it, I've been all over this thread looking for any morsel of additional news about BTG. I'm really looking forward to Monday too. Maybe we'll get the news over the weekend??? 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

I will defend Carter & Ridge's friendship. Carter has only had the Forrester's as his family for years. I think he's officiated over all of their weddings over the years, multiple times. He's also at almost every Forrester family holiday, so I will indulge them with the "brotherly bond" they have. My main issue with this story is Ridge & Brooke. He's the most arrogant pompous character ever. And having Brooke be this pathetic is difficult to watch. Also, I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but the sets lighting is atrocious, especially Finn and Li's offices. All of those ridiculous shadows, it looks so awful IMO. With all that being said, I can't stop watching. I guess that makes me as pathetic as Brooke 😳😳😳
