Heads Up, Canada!

I'll have info on where and when to watch Beyond the Gates in Canada in a few days.

Currently, there is nothing official even though I know I've seen places noting it'll air on some independent station in the country at 2:00 p.m.

Just checked my Xfinity TV grid. For next week, the 2-3 PM block is labeled "The Bold and the Beautiful." No mention of the BTG specials.

The good news is that anyone who records BOLD on their DVR will automatically get those shows.

Those BOLD reruns? Laughable. Time after time, BOLD has a chance to feed us a true classic episode, and instead we get some recent National Geographic special of cast members walking around in some foreign country. YAWN.

Not sure if they did it today or yesterday, but I believe it was one of the two, but CBS has finally added a Beyond the Gates page to its website at CBS.com under the Daytime section. However, the URL is different from the rest of its shows which use an underscore to sepate the show's title.

https://www.cbs.com/shows/daytime/

https://www.cbs.com/shows/beyond-the-gates/

 

Ironically, The Bold and the Beautiful will air at 2:30 p.m. ET/1:30 p.m. PT after "Beyond the Gates," as I previously suggested last year after BTG (then "The Gates") was announced. Of course, I had BTG at 1:30 p.m. ET/12:30 p.m. PT as one of my schedule options if the network chose to put B&B after it.

Still, I love how they made it happen even though it wasn't the exact schedule I suggested as a possibility.

Bradley doesn't want the viewers he has left to remember how good the show was.

So, he gives us the utter garbage he wrote in insane reruns and actual new episodes.

Mon-Fri Feb 17-21 during the former TheTalk timeslot, which was temporarily PriceIsRight repeats, and is the upcoming BTG timeslot:

CBS is airing a daily intro to BTG with BTS stuff,
as a series of five half-hour specials.
which Errol explained here:

During the second half of TheTalk/BTG timeslot, they'll air those B&B reruns.

Meanwhile B&B will have NEW episodes in its *regular* timeslot.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
    • French fan summary Rusty took over Simon's job at Lewis Trucking after Simon transferred to Lewis Oil's North Carolina office to live near Jessie and Calla. I doubt they would bother following up a story for offscreen characters eg marriage and a baby.
    • I suspected that the performance with the reveal was the reason why the Ted actor got the axe and it looks like I was right. He wasn't really good at conveying what needed to be conveyed in those scenes. Claybon is at least slowly improving (but I agree that he still needs to work on his line delivery), but I do wonder what will happen when his big reveal is coming up. 
    • I've already asked this before, recently, but can anyone who watched those years more closely tell me if anything said about Jessie and Simon at the end of their profiles is accurate (about them marrying, naming a baby after Brandon/Lujack, etc.)?
