I love this. And here we were speculating that MVJ was leaving B&B to join Patrick Mulcahey over on GH. Little did we know that she had far more ambitious plans.

Hopefully she’s got Michael R. Jackson on the line, as he loves soaps. Get a Pulitzer Prize winner as a co-HW.

The reason I think this may happen is that there's actually a quote from CBS as well, and they announced this. So, they must be serious. The questions are...will it be half-hour or an hour...and what time slot would it go in? TPIR still does really well. Y&R just got a four year renewal. I'd assume B&B is okay as well. Let's Make a Deal seems to do fairly well and must be cheap to produce. It could go in the slot where The Talk is. That show has had constant upheaval, cast changes, and it's never really caught on like The View on ABC. 

I actually think a 30 minute show would be a better bet to launch and much cheaper to start up.

I admit as I play catch-up. This has crossed my mind as well.

 

First PM is back at GM. And we speculated over MVJ. Y&R gets its renewal for four years...which was surprising. And then MVJ left B&B...the place where great writers go to retire. And we speculated over her to GM. And now THIS...while B&B only got a one year renewal.

 

Things to make you go hmmm.

Potential Lineups (using CBS NY scheduling), assuming late 2024/2025 or 2025-2026 TV season.

Scenario A ("The Gates" is one-hour, "The Talk" is canceled):

  • 10:00 AM - Let's Make a Deal
  • 11:00 AM - The Price is Right
  • 12:30 PM - The Young and the Restless
  • 1:30 PM - The Bold and the Beautiful
  • 2:00 PM - The Gates

Scenario B ("The Gates" is one-hour, "The Talk" is canceled):

  • 10:00 AM - Let's Make a Deal
  • 11:00 AM - The Price is Right
  • 12:30 PM - The Young and the Restless
  • 1:30 PM - The Gates
  • 2:30 PM - The Bold and the Beautiful

Scenario C ("The Talk" stays on, "The Gates" replaces "The Bold and the Beautiful" -- not likely):

  • 10:00 AM - Let's Make a Deal
  • 11:00 AM - The Price is Right
  • 12:30 PM - The Young and the Restless
  • 1:30 PM - The Gates
  • 2:00 PM - The Talk

Scenario D ("The Talk" stays on but as half-hour, "The Gates" replaces "The Bold and the Beautiful" -- not likely):

  • 12:30 PM - The Young and the Restless

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

    • Jill's descent into madness is one of the storylines that made Knots Landing go off the rails in the aftermath of Laura departure. The other two were Charles Scott and Johnny Rourke.
    • You're welcome @Paul Raven. There was also the CBS schedule change of February 4, 1980, when an expanded Y&R moved from noon ET to 1 pm ET, and the local programming half hour moved from 1 pm ET to noon ET.
    • This has to be some kind of sick joke, it just has to be......Please tell me it is a joke!!!

    • I was the Beyond the Gates Facebook page and they are speculating about Mike Manning's and Brandon Claybon's real life sexual preferences. I have to sit back and laugh out loud at the pure ignorance. Supposedly, Brandon Claybon is reluctant to kiss Mike Manning because he's married to a woman.

      I just can't. Thank God, most people who post on this site have some sense.
    • Jill’s evolution (or devolution?) is interesting. I didn’t even realize she made a couple innocuous appearances as early as the latter half of Season 6. I probably need to do a more thorough rewatch because tangled web Peter weaved sometimes left me so confused and still does…like Gary knowing about Jill being Peter’s sister and all the lies but everyone else acted so oblivious. Obviously the two things that set Jill off the deep end; First was Abby’s threat “The first Mrs Ewing never goes away” and second was seeing Greg use the urn of Peter’s ashes being uses a set decoration/paper weight which she of course stole.

    • That was my thought as well.  I realize Cameron Faulkner always came across as controlling and manipulative, but good lord.  They made him do everything short of killing a puppy on his way out, lol.
    • According to reports, dating to the original report by The Sun, Ben Mitchell was at the top of the list for Ben Wadley to return to the canvas and wanted to give Max Bowden a second chance at the role. Daily Mirror and Radio Times, among others, are further reporting on the return, so I suspect this brief return is going to test some waters. I'm probably in the minority, but I liked Bowden as Ben and hope to see him further excel in the role this time around. Digital Spy is now reporting Bowden's return as Ben Mitchell.
    • Hmmm… are they ever better than the DVD rips we have in tha vault?

    • I don’t think they had to recast Charley. My impression at the time was that they didn’t feel Jo Anderson didn’t fit the perky/cute persona that they wanted/needed when Julianne Phillips left the show.
