For the second time since its launch in February 2025, “Beyond the Gates” has found a new broadcast home in Canada, with E! landing the television rights to the series for viewers in the north.
As of Monday, January 5, all-new episodes of the daytime drama are available to watch on the network, beginning at 3:00 p.m.
Previously, the soap opera had been airing on CTV Drama Channel, which acquired the Canadian TV rights in September 2025, after the show’s original Canadian broadcaster, CHCH, announced it would not carry “Beyond the Gates” on its 2025-2026 schedule.
E! is the Canadian counterpart to the U.S. cable network of the same name, following a rebrand from Star! under an agreement with Comcast in November 2010. The network airs a mix of originals and rebroadcasts, including “ETalk,” “TMZ,” “TMZ Live,” “The Rookie,” “Battle of the Generations” and “Bob Hearts Abishola,” among others.
After ditching “Beyond the Gates” last fall, CHCH began airing reruns of the 1980s action/adventure drama “The A-Team” and, more recently, repeats of comedies “Laverne & Shirley” and “Charles in Charge” in the soap opera’s former time slot. For its part, CTV Drama Channel has been airing a seemingly endless loop of “Gilmore Girls” repeats 24/7 since mid-to-late December in place of “Beyond the Gates” originals.
On the streaming front, Crave remains the Canadian home for “Beyond the Gates,” with 194 of the 200 episodes produced for Season 1 available to stream on the service — it’s unknown if or when the remaining six episodes from Season 1 will be made available on the platform.
As of Tuesday, January 6, at least the first two episodes of Season 2 had been uploaded to Crave, with the platform continuing to release episodes weekly (Tuesday through Saturday).
Bell Media, which owns Crave, CTV Drama Channel and E!, has not responded to a request for comment from Soap Opera Network.
The TV Watercooler was the first to report the change in Canadian networks for “Beyond the Gates.”
