BTG: March 2025 Discussion Thread

Mona?  Hmmm. Maybe.

I reeeeeeealy want to know the truth about how Alan died now. 

 

I'd also like to know if they'll expand on Leslie's line about her theater days. I wonder if we'll see more costumes and wigs down the line 

I always like reading people's differing thoughts. What didn't you like about it ?

I think the actor who plays Martin is fine and is fine as well.

Yup. Did you see today when Martin basically... behind Smitty's back... tried to ruin his career opportunity? That was sooo vile.

No soap opera is perfect, but BTG makes all the other current soaps look like they are written for 13 year-olds.  And the writers on BTG don't talk down to their audience.  I finally feel like I'm watching a soap opera written for adults.  Thank you MVJ!!

Ding, ding, ding! This is smartly written, and it's clear CBS, CBS Studios, NAACP, Procter & Gamble Studios, Sheila Ducksworth, and company believe in Michele Val Jean and her team to make the creative decisions necessary for this soap to proceed, and it's refreshing, because I don't feel like from the other four American daytime soaps. Beyond the Gates reminds me of the days of watching soaps as a child with my mother during the summer months.

AMEN! I second this. Thank you MVJ. Thank you for giving us something new, something fresh... thank you for gracing us with Silkpress Sheila... trashy Hayley... and even... Dani.

I havent felt like this since Port Charles and One Life to Live was on the air. I will be watching this show religiously!

[DemetriKane]

I completely agree. While the show is not horrible I don't think all the storylines were thought out for long-term storytelling. I felt the same way about the family tree, and am happy to see a few others starting to see what a clocked in week one. On a positive note, it is only week 3 and MVJ has plenty of time to change the set up.

High five for more gay crew members. Hate to say it, but I think this will become common on the show. Outside of maybe a handful of shirtless scenes throughout the summer. 

It wasn't a bad episode I just did not feel the excitement as everyone else did regarding Leslie's shenanigans. It lacked mystery and intrigue for me. I am pretty old school I guess, I love those build-up scenes of the villain getting dressed before they make their entrance. I am not anticipating the interactions as I would have. Hope that makes sense lol.

And me.

I'm old school as well. I'd be perfectly fine with Bill Bell storytelling but I get they have to keep up  with today's audiences and their short attention spans.

Leslie had on her opening credits dress in her fantasy.
