Beyond the Gates

The first episode was a bit slow in the beginning, but since the last scene of the first episode the show has been on 10 for me. The second and third episode have, for me, provided more insight into all of characters and the role that they play. I am interested in was secret Vanessa is hiding. Overall, I am pleased with the show. I can't wait to see what else exists within and Beyond The Gates.

Just a side note, I feel like Leslie may have a split personality or some type of mental illness. Also, I really wonder what Martin may have done and did that impact Leslie and Eva's lives. I can't wait to what happens.

Admittedly, I was apprehensive about this new Daytime Drama but, as soon as I saw the name of Tamara Tunie (who portrays Anita Dupree, a character far removed from her previous daytime role of Jessica Griffith on As The World Turns), I knew this was going to be a very classy production! And, I was right! This is a well-cast, well-written show about an affluent Black American family dynasty (No pun intended) with some of the usual trials and tribulations associated with daytime TV, and Tunie, along with Clifton Davis (That's My Mama) as the matriarch and patriarch of the wealthy and politically powerful Dupree family, makes it all the more classier! A week and a half into this, and I'm already hooked! Definitely give the show a chance!

From episode one, Beyond the Gates made it clear that this is a Soap Opera that didn't come to play around. We were given an introduction into not only the Dupree family and their lives, but also those around them who are not in the Fairmont Crest circle. The cast is amazing and incredibly diverse. Karla Mosley as Dani Dupree has been absolutely INCREDIBLE. And of course so has the beautiful Tamara Tunie who plays the Matriarch Anita Dupree. Everyone is fantastic! Plus there are no silos! Everyone interacts with EVERYONE on this show. And I can already feel how everyone is or will be connected to each other. Whether you love Soap Operas or not, you will enjoy this show!

Love this soap and I've been watching soaps for a while. New and different stories. Washington DC surrounding gated communities are definitely like this now. I love the styling, the hair, makeup and the writing. It's very us! And the drama is on point too, can't wait for the next episode. The other soaps on are super boring in comparison. It's no wonder the ratings for the other soaps are in the toilet. However, Beyond the Gates is bringing soaps back. Messed up weddings, cheating husbands, long lost children is classic soaps but other storylines ground it in 2025 with the use of social media.

Unlike other genres, soap operas, serials or daytime dramas need time to progress and evolve.i have high hopes for this series. The production value is first rate. There are companies putting in a lot on their investment and I hope it works out. Soap veteran Tamara Tunie was perfectly cast to play the Dupree matriarch and I could watch her in anything. Here she gets the respect and due of an actress of her caliber. Clifton Davis was better known for his sitcom roles is also brilliantly cast as the Dupree patriarch. Karla Mosley is also a soap veteran too. Hopefully the show will last.its nice to see daytime drama again. The Atlanta based soap is going all out.
