They didn't air the "welcome to the neighborhood" segments this week,
but they are starting with regular BTG on Feb. 24

Huh, I can watch that feed from Europe. At what time is BTG supposed to air? It might be early evening for me. 

 

ETA: it would air at 8PM where I am. That's certainly a decent time slot.

From March 9-30 that would be off by one hour since Europe and NorthAmerica go to daylightsavings on different dates (clockchange NorthAmerica March 9, and Europe March 30)

I like Daphnée's remark that Black Excellence is not just about wealth. I liked hearing a little bit about her working class roots in Miami during the Paley Center event. I hope after the premiere Sheila Ducksworth will retire her talking points equating achievement with wealth because it is beginning to grate. 

Other old-time SON posters were at the screening last night. They took pictures with Sheila Duckworth and Daphne Duplaix.

LOL!!! Not a Grande Dame segment!!! Go on, Ms. Kuren. 

 

I love today's preview. I know I mentioned I'm still trying to get to know the third generation Duprees so I was happy this part had family trees. I think I have the names straight now. And I loved seeing a hint of what the Hayley/Dani dynamic might be. 

 

I have always love Tamara Tunie but something about this one just really made me love her. I would probably fangirl if I was to ever run into her lol. She just stays inspiring. I also loved seeing those OLTL clips of Daphnee. And yes, Karla, I would die, too if Danzel or Viola showed up for a guest spot.

 

And I liked what scenes from the first episode they showed. 

 

Not the first man playing a powerful man named Bill that I've had a crush. lol. Here we go again.

Will we ever figure out the city of BTG? Im thinking its Potomac.

Should've been Atlanta. Certainly might as well have been.

I truly enjoyed Tamara and Daphne on Sherri today.

The CBS News article mentioned earlier misspelled Daphnee's name, they forgot the "x" in Duplaix. It happened in the title and in the article:

 

Tamara Tunie and Daphnée Duplai on the importance of representation on the new daytime drama "Beyond the Gates"

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/beyond-the-gates-tamara-tunie-daphnee-duplai-daytime-television/

it would be really nice if p&g could get a grip on its history. first, they say ‘as the world turns’ aired for 72  years.  

to set the record straight: the first black actress on daytime television was micki grant on ‘another world,’ who started in july, 1965. 

and re black actors: james earl jones and billy dee williams began in early January 1966 — jones on ‘as the world turns,’ and williams on ‘guiding light.’ jones later replaced williams on gl. and ruby dee replaced cicely tyson.

Aleah Hordges is at WKRC in Cincinnati  (not WKRP lol)   She drove down to Atlanta to do the story on her brother Jibre.  In addition to this main report on the station's website, she has a bunch of mini-videos and a lot of photos of her trip, in several facebook posts.  Check them out here:

In addition to all her videos and photos with her brother Jibre and all the cast and crew in Atlanta, Aleah Hordges also did a soap quiz with her coworkers in Cincinnati.   She asked interesting soap history questions.
