Might be reading to much into that post, but it seems to mean that Vernon plays but the rules most of the time but will break them when he has to and Anita breaks them more often and cares less for them period.

Ha, it really is! I just can’t believe daytime hasn’t truly excited me since around 2004 when we had Bianca’s baby switch, Sheffer’s ATWT and when Y&R was still watchable. That’s the last time it was telling stories I felt I needed to watch.

And to watch two black women talk about the new show they created and their love for the genre…just means so much to the little black boy who only loves daytime because of a black woman (miss you ma). These accomplished black women spearheading this new show after 20 something years of being aware that black viewers have been undervalued and underrepresented, despite being a well known, significant and stable part of the audience, it’s just incredible that we’re here.

Don’t get me started on how Tamara Tunie, Daphnée Duplaix and Karla Mose, who are all talented and accomplished actresses done so dirty by daytime…wasted, disrespected and dismissed while lessers got to shine.

Can’t wait to see the new promo.

Oh Lord, not you bringing the baby switch into it. lol. But I understand. That first week is going to be so full of chatter here and I can't wait for it.

 

MVJ has always been one of my favorite writers to watch so I'm fully in support of her. And just seeing a show with a dominant black family that also has a production that has so many black people working BTS as well. Something that truly inspires me more than I feel I show. And YES. The black audience have always been so unseen and undervalued in terms of how much they support 'the stories.' I've always said that people be sitting on a gold mine given BITD how GREY'S ANATOMY blew up because it had great writing, but tapped that unseen representation. Well, BITD. 

 

I feel in my bones that I'm going to be stanning (yep, I said it) Daphnée Duplaix's Dani. I've always liked her work on OLTL. So I can't wait to see her full potential on display.

 

I really need to see that new promo.

I still cannot believe that ABC made me watch OLTL with AMC & GH so I could get the whole storyline! But, even if I say it begrudgingly, it was worth it. And, I got so much posting mileage out of a pilot crashes a helicopter in the woods with 2 pregnant women on board & both go into unplanned, unexpected labor & both deliver but only 1 baby lives ...

And the entire Script Writing Team, too, who we did not see. 

Plus, I cannot get over 27 sets! I am dying to know how many they can have set up at any given time. The diner set looked fixed, permanent.

Wait. There's a second promo?

I assume that’s what will happen. That’s what happened when Passions launched. CTV aired Another World, it picked up Passions when AW ended in June. Aired Passions for a season and half, its ratings were dismal compared to AW which had a HUGE following in Canada, it switched to Global and stayed there till it was cancelled. 

Your post filled with such a nice but big feeling of nostalgia. Online I had so many Canadian fans because of AW!!! And, they were constantly piss*d off because they didn't count in the ratings that were paid attention to.

And, my favorite Beverlee McKinsey interview is the Canadian "City Lights"!

Dragging myself back on topic, who can tell me where this new promo is? 33 days but who is counting?!!

Sorry if this has been posted or asked already, but do we know anything as far as availability to streaming platforms and release time/schedules.

From the commercials, I know that BTG will be made available to stream on Paramount+. Will new episodes be available to stream the day of or next day? Since this is the first time a soap opera is available to stream from the very beginning, will they try to promote/push for streaming viewership over live viewers. 

Similarly, will they try to innovate in some ways? I think weekly/monthly summary episodes with the highlights would be great for new viewers trying to get into watching that may not want to start from the very beginning or feel like they don't have the time to always watch all 5 episodes each week.

What I read was that same day you have to be subbed to Paramount+ Showtime. That was true to see the Daytime Emmys live, also. 

Further in the reading regular Paramount Plus is next day.

I know that info has been published but you have to go looking for it.

❝ CBS announced today that BEYOND THE GATES, the new daytime drama series and debut project from the CBS Studios/NAACP Venture, will premiere Monday, Feb. 24, 2025, and air weekdays (2:00-3:00 PM, ET; 1:00-2:00 PM, PT) on the CBS Television Network, and streaming on Paramount+*.

*Paramount+ with SHOWTIME subscribers will have access to stream live via the live feed of their local CBS affiliate on the service, as well as on-demand. Paramount+ Essential subscribers will not have the option to stream live, but will have access to on-demand the day after the special airs. ❞

Although, I'd wager, same-day episodes [would be] available around 5pm ET, much like Y&R/B&B appear to be (as well as CBS.com).

OMG. Bill looks like quite a wuss. His ex-wife will be owning him every step of the way, and Hayley is definitely in trouble. 😆

Like "The Young and the Restless" and "The Bold and the Beautiful," episodes of "Beyond the Gates" will be available to stream LIVE on Paramount+ with a SHOWTIME subscription via your local CBS affiliate (option shown in the platform). Otherwise, it can be streamed On Demand on Paramount+ later in the day, generally after it has already been broadcast in all U.S. timezones.

Great news! Thanks for the clarification Errol! ❤️
