Beyond The Gates’ Receives Support & Encouraging Words From Young And The Restless Stars

With less than two weeks away from its historic premiere, the anticipation is building for Beyond the Gates (BTG). The show will not only be the first-ever Black-centric one-hour soap, but it’s also the first daytime drama to debut in over 25 years.

Fans are very excited to see the first BTG episode air on CBS come Monday, February 24 at 2 p.m. ET, and some of the stars of the soap’s sister show, The Young and the Restless (Y&R) recently offered some encouraging words for the new daytime drama.

Soap Stars Rally Around BTG’s Groundbreaking Debut

Soaps.com recently dropped a video on Instagram with some clips of a variety of soap stars offering words of encouragement to BTG’s cast and crew on the cusp of the soap’s premiere.

A handful of those were from the Y&R, which is special as the show, along with The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B), airs on CBS, and will precede BTG in the network’s daytime lineup.

The caption on the reel notes, “When we caught up with #DaysOfOurLives and #YoungAndRestless stars late last year, they expressed their excitement for the upcoming new soap opera #BeyondTheGates (originally titled The Gates) … with hopes for a crossover or two!”

Lastly, Zuleyka Silvers (Audra Charles) states it’s ‘great’ that CBS has picked up another soap because the world of daytime drama isn’t going anywhere!
