Yahoo Lifestyle CBS Sets February Release Date for New Daytime Soap ‘Beyond the Gates’
CBS has locked Feb. 24, 2025, as the release date for its new daytime soap “Beyond the Gates.” The debut project from the CBS Studios/NAACP Venture will premiere on CBS and stream on Paramount+.
According to an official logline, “‘Beyond the Gates’ is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington, D.C., and in one of 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.”
