If you tuned into the Sunday, January 19 broadcast of the NFL on CBS, wherein the network carried the AFC Divisional Playoff game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Buffalo Bills, you might have also seen the latest promo for the network’s upcoming daytime drama series, “Beyond the Gates.”
Debuting Monday, February 24 at 2:00 p.m. ET/1:00 p.m. PT on CBS, the series follows an affluent Black family who hold court over the fictional Fairmont Crest, a posh gated community that’s the center of a luxury filled with wealthy residents harboring deep secrets.
Leading the cast are Clifton Davis as Vernon Dupree, Tamara Tunie as Anita Dupree, Daphnee Duplaix as Dr. Nicole Dupree Richardson and Karla Mosley as Dani Dupree.
Highlighted in the promo are cast members Jen Jacob (Ashley Morgan), Ben Gavin (Derek Baldwin), Jibre Hordges (Jacob Hawthorne), Arielle Prepetit (Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne), Karla Mosley and Timon Durrett (Bill Hamilton).
“CBS Daytime gets steamier [love scene between Hordges’ Jacob and Prepetit’s Naomi], scheme-ier [conversation between Mosley’s Dani and Tunie’s Anita], and soapier [argument between Mosley’s Dani and Durrett’s Bill],” reads the tag for the promo, noting the series will be joining a drama-filled daytime lineup that already includes “The Young and the Restless” and “The Bold and the Beautiful.”
Watch the all-new promo below.
