Members LondonScribe Posted Sunday at 03:01 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 03:01 PM My wife and I don’t watch much of the same television. She long gave up on soaps. But I just found out that she’s all in on Beyond The Gates. Why? Because it’s showing black people not only surrounded by affluence, but being the creators of said wealth, driving the narrative and being leaders. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted Sunday at 03:38 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 03:38 PM The second most gratifying "F" I ever earned in high school was when I was refused to read that novel during my summer vacation. (The first most gratifying was for not reading "The Grapes of Wrath," because, [!@#$%^&*], isn't it enough that I live in Oklahoma?) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MontyB Posted Sunday at 05:15 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 05:15 PM Interesting conversation between Nicole and Kat, but Shanice in the background stole the whole scene. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted Sunday at 05:27 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 05:27 PM I say cap the thread at say over 200 posts and start a new monthly thread, rather not daily threads @Errol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Fevuh Posted Sunday at 06:27 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 06:27 PM (edited) I feel like the character of Vanessa is Kelly Rutherford/Sam from Generations. I like both but just an observation. What’s silly - the other day the way a scene was going I thought - this is so Workd Turns or Another World, but that’s silly. Thennnnnn I thought, well if it does feel that way it’s because - P&G. Duh haha Edited Sunday at 06:28 PM by Fevuh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted Sunday at 06:35 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 06:35 PM Loved the show & the character/actress but I'm not feeling that comparison & there's certainly no Kyle anywhere in sight!!! Please register in order to view this content I have def been feeling AW 1987 Team Vicky vs. Team Lisa!!! Back then I was Team Lisa. Today my ladies are Anita & Dani with Nicole coming on fast in the backstretch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted Sunday at 06:37 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 06:37 PM (edited) I just noticed that, in one of the many prelaunch articles in the mainstream press that outlines who the main characters are.... it says that Vanessa is Dani's neighbor. https://deadline.com/gallery/beyond-the-gates-cast-photos-cbs/1-012-3/ That reminded me of the scene in the first episode, when Vanessa enters via Dani's glass kitchen door at the moment Dani is throwing coffee mugs. Vanessa says "well, so much for stop by for a cup of coffee!" At the time I took it as good friends who have permission to walk into one another's homes. But the idea of a neighbor who stops by via the kitchen door, well, that fits, too. Edited Sunday at 06:42 PM by janea4old 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted Sunday at 06:40 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 06:40 PM You know it's good soap when...hehe... This reminds me of the DAYS promo back in the 90s where it was 'Miss a Day, Miss a Lot.' And I expect Week 3 to also end on a cliffhanger. As Fridays USED to be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted Sunday at 06:44 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 06:44 PM This is a pretty decent character guide. https://deadline.com/gallery/beyond-the-gates-cast-photos-cbs/1-012-3/ The picture of Thomas is very different from how he appeared at Bill & Hayley's wedding (He was wearing a green suit there). But otherwise the pics are great. And you can see the differences in the shapes of the men's faces, for anyone having trouble telling them apart by haircuts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Fevuh Posted Sunday at 06:52 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 06:52 PM I am surprised by Duplaix - she’s great. And I would never have thought Karla had this in her; she needed the right character and this is it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members te. Posted Sunday at 06:55 PM Members Share Posted Sunday at 06:55 PM TBH, it sort of underlined for me how they need different styling. It's not just the hairstyle, but the fact they all have facial hair and none of them really stand out by their personal clothes style. They could certainly get at least one of the guys to go clean-shaven, or even go for a fuller beard. I think clothingwise they could certainly do more - right now I feel Ted is the only guy with a distinct style due to his preference for polo + jacket combo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
