CBS released the first trailer for the upcoming Soap Opera Beyond the Gates, and it looks like it is going to be a lot of fun. There are rich people, sex, over-the-top fights, and lots of expensive fashion. That is what Daytime Dramas are about. Thus. why they have drama in the title of the genre.
Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington, D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you’ll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those who live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have “made it” and those who haven’t are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.
BTG debuts on February 24th. Are you going to watch? I am going to check it because we are going to need the distraction from reality.
