Good thinking! Of course, that's why. 

We def want to be naughty! Just sayin' is all. It's not a requirement.

BTW, our Jarly Binges BTG zoom was a huge success. Some hadn't even seen ANY yet. The rest of us were re-watching & talking about what we'd just watched. As we finished I looked at the time & it was closer to 1 than to midnight. But we weren't even tired. Instead I think we were wired.

I'm already pretending I'm in the opening credits - either Lauren Buglioli or Trisha Mann-Grant. I won't settle for anything else but being the town gossip OR the Silkpress Sheila!

I'm sorry if this has been asked many time before, but is there any way to watch this outside of the US? (that is simple and does not require any VPN stuff).

Within Canada, some cable and satellite services have "CHCH" channel, and you can watch BTG on broadcast TV there and record on your recorder.

Outside Canada (and inside Canada)
You can watch the episodes on the live feed from Canada at chch.com.
I found it here:   https://www.chch.com/live/
click on the "WATCH LIVE" button on the website at the time of broadcast.
It works from outside Canada and you don't need VPN.

That's at 2pm New York STANDARD Time through March 7th.
That's at 2pm New York DAYLIGHT Time starting week of March 10th.

Note that Canada/USA go  to Daylight Saving Time March 9, but  Europe goes to Daylight/Summer time March 30, so time difference would be off by one hour for a few weeks.  If that's confusing, go to a reliable timezone converter to check the time differences during the weeks in March.

NOTE, during week of 24 February, sometimes it took a long while for the live feed to start working on the website, so I suggest setting the live page up 30 minutes early.  Click on the page, and give it time to load, so that it's actively giving the live feed by the time BTG starts.

I don't know how to record the live website feed.

I don't know where to legally find the shows recorded outside the USA, unless you have a VPN.
You might be able to watch any recent episodes you missed by going to cbs.com with a VPN, but 
cbs.com usually has *only the most recent 5 episodes* of any of their shows.

My question might be stupid...

We know that the 80s soaps were inspired by the glitzy primetime soaps.

90s soaps were inspired by the Spelling soaps abd JER.

After watching a week of BTG, what would you inspired the show storywise and/or aesthetically?

This is so soooo sooo great to have as information. Thank you for compiling it for people who have trouble orienting themselves where and how to watch.

I don't think it reminds me of any of the soaps specifically. It feels like it was inspired by the soap genre through a Black cultural lens. Part of why I feel I can't place it as like a P&G or Bell or Agnes Nixon soap is because you have a Black woman leading the show. Michele's unique perspective and extensive experience is giving us something that feels familiar but new.

I'm going to say something that may be unpopular too... but Dani is as annoying if not more than Hayley. And I'm not saying this as a negative. It's great-annoying. She is just so used to being on top of everyone all the time, it's nice to see her fake world shatter. I know this may be different to a lot of people's impression of her as this "victim" of Bill's. But she lost me with her words to her mother... that it was because this affair was so public and in front of other people... that she cares so much. That's a shallow person right there. Hayley and Dani are alike in so many ways... you are not surprised that once they were friends.
