In a big shock in the soap world, CBS has opted not to air a new episode of one of its daytime soaps during the week of June 30. If you haven't heard, from June 30 to July 4, Beyond the Gates is not airing a new episode, marking an extremely rare occurrence in the US soap world (we can't even recall in recent memory when a planned week-long preemption has occurred with a soap.)
Naturally, fans of the Beyond the Gates have found themselves incredibly frustrated with the announcement that they aren't getting a new episode of the series for an entire week. Check out just a few of the more tame posts we found on X (formerly Twitter).
With all that being said, the big question arises as to why CBS is taking a break in the rollout of new Beyond the Gates episodes. From our research, there doesn't appear to be a set reason provided by the network. Furthermore, the series creator, Michele Van Jean, had this to say about the week-long preemption:
"To those asking: preemption-rerun decisions are made way above my pay grade so no insight into that. The good news is the upcoming reruns are premiere week so those of you who missed it can catch up with how it all began. #BeyondTheGates #BTG"
Additionally, upon seeing the fan reaction to the Beyond the Gates news, Van Jean stated, 'Just want to say to our #BeyondTheGates peeps, I love your passion for the show. And I thank you for it. #BTG.'
So while we don't have a concrete reason for the preemption, viewers fortunately will still get to see episodes of Beyond the Gates this week as reruns will air. And in case you're wondering, new episodes of The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful are airing during the week of June 30.
Unfortunately, this all boils down to us all having to wait a little longer to see what horrible thing Martin (Brandon Claybon) did in his past, how Dani (Karla Mosley) will react to seeing Andre (Sean Freeman) with Ashley (Jen Jacob) and what's next in this Leslie (Trisha Mann-Grant) criminal investigation. Check out what's to come when Beyond the Gates resumes rolling out new episodes.
New episodes of Beyond the Gates air weekdays on CBS and become available to stream the day after on Paramount Plus.
