While the details surrounding Dr. Doug McBride’s death seem very shady, especially since the gambling-addicted doc was killed-off camera in a car crash, it looks like Beyond the Gates has said goodbye to actor Jason Graham.

That was confirmed by an Instagram post on Thursday by Lauren Buglioli who plays Doug’s cheating wife, Vanessa. She revealed the moment that the cast and crew said goodbye to Doug on the soundstages at Assembly Studios in Atlanta. She accompanied the post with “I love you, husband, while Jason said of his BTG co-workers, “You guys are family for life.”

In story on the Thursday September 25th episode, while Vanessa is off in Puerto Rico with Joey Armstrong (Jon Lindstrom), she receives numerous calls from Jacob Hawthorne (Jibre Hordges) that she realized went unanswered. When she finally talks on the phone with him, she learns the devastating news that Doug was killed in a car accident.

Since Doug was killed-off off-screen, viewers initially thought that perhaps Doug faked his own death to nab Joey and his mobster underground, and was working with Jacob to take out both Joey and dirty cop, Marcel (Darryl W. Handy). However, at the end of the episode, Joey received a call from Marcel informing him as far as the rest of the world was concerned, Doug’s death was an accident.

Earlier this week, Doug’s gambling was just so out of control, with mounting debts and his unstable marriage to Vanessa. Sadly, just before he was snuffed out, Vanessa took off her wedding ring to hit the sheets with Joey. Before ending Doug’s life, Joey made sure that Doug could hear his voice in the background during Vanessa’s call with her husband, which shook Doug to this core, as he continued to drink and gamble.

Just when you think he has finally come up with some big money from blackjack, his vision got blurry and Marcel swiped the money away from Doug saying, he would not need it where he was going! You can take a look at a few of the scenes from Thursday’s episode of Beyond the Gates below.

So, let us know, since it appears Jason Graham had wrapped his run on ‘Beyond the Gates,’ what will Vanessa do when she finds out just who was responsible for his death? Do you still believe its possible, he’s not dead-dead? Share your theories via the comment section below.

I really enjoyed Jason’s portrayal of beat-down Doug McBride. I wish however that the show would show him actually dealing with his addictions via GA or some personal therapy (psychiatrist Nicole had nothing to do).

Anything is possible on a soap. Doug or Jacob could have over heard someones plan to get rid of Doug. Because it happened off screen. Anything is possible. Someone has to bring down Joey and Marcel. Randy and Doug could be part of a sting operation.

This was just too easy. His death took place off screen and he was burned beyond recognition. He and Randy had a plan in place to take down Joey Armstrong. Could this have been part of the plan and Doug was not the victim? Could Marcel have double-crossed Joey? One thing is for certain, Jacob won’t let this go and I hope it won’t be to his own detriment. Naomi freaked out when she lost her wedding ring and she thought it was a bad omen.

Jason Graham played the Hell out of Douglas McBride, so I am sad to see him exit, but also I am ready to the juiciness coming up because of it!

Sick of Joey, over him. He’s such a turn off for the show. Done

Is anyone ever truly “dead-dead” in the soap world?

‘Beyond the Gates’ Star Karla Mosley Weighs-in on Dani Dupree’s Love Life Endgame: Are You Team Bill or Team Andre?

Published

Last week, viewers of CBS daytime’s Beyond the Gates watched as a tornado ripped through Fairmont Crest. In its wake, people were trapped with one another or seriously injured.

For Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley), she found herself stuck in an elevator with her ex-husband, Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett). And wouldn’t you know, one thing led to another, and the two gave into their unresolved feelings for one another and did the deed.

Meanwhile, Dani’s current husband, Andre Richardson (Sean Freeman) suffered a minor injury to his leg, and was worried sick in the ballroom because he had no idea where Dani was after the twister decimated the place. Eventually, Dani and Bill part ways go back to their families and act like nothing happened.

When Dani is reunited with Andre, he professes his love for her even more than ever. As for Bill’s current wife Hayley Lawson (Marquita Goings), she could care less because she was making out with Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor, Y&R) in a closet at the country club!

THE TORNADO MAY HAVE CHANGED DANI’S HEART

For months, Beyond the Gates viewers have found themselves torn; rooting for Dani and Bill to get over themselves and get back together, or rooting for Dani and Andre, because its clear he truly loves her, even though their marriage may not have started out as the greatest love affair of all time.

Karla Mosley opened up to PEOPLE on Dani’s romance plight and who the writers of the soap might ultimately pair her with, expressing “I cannot say. I honestly have no idea.”

As it seems now, this triangle of Andre/Dani/Bill is about to heat up even more following Dani’s elevator exploits. However, according to Mosley, the popularity of Dani and Andre came as surprise to the writers, which has led to the romantic drama. “The writers did not think Dani and Andre were gonna pop off the way that they did,” explained Karla. “Originally, they thought Bill and Dani would be back together by the end of season one. And then it was like, ‘wait, what is happening?’”

WRITERS ARE TAKING THE PULSE OF THE FANS

The decision to not have Dani and Bill reunite within season 1 or half-way though season 2, Mosley shares is a sign of the times: “The old soap trope is the torn woman who goes back to her man. But I think there are enough women now who are like, I want to see her win.”

In the end, Karla believes that in this case, fans speaking up, can also translate to the writers room and influence their potential decision of who should be the ultimate man for Dani. She tells Beyond the Gates viewers,  “Keep talking about it, y’all.”

Meanwhile, questions remain: Could Dani and Bill’s elevator sex find her pregnant with his child, which would make this whole situation more messy? Stay tuned.

Now, let us know, who do you want to see Dani ultimately with … Bill Hamilton or Andre Richardson? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

Robinson) or Leslie Thomas (Trisha Mann-Grant) is a donor match for the life-saving transplant surgery Eva desperately needs.

Eva, among others, was injured in the tornado that ripped through Fairmont Crest and its devastating aftermath. She sustained critical injuries during the storm and was trapped with her half-sister, Kat Richardson (Colby Nixon).

Phillip Boyd recently appeared on The McCord List, where he talked about his career between working in Los Angeles and Atlanta and said about his latest acting gig, “Dr, Miles Arnold works in the hospital. There’s something that happens, a natural disaster and a lot of the characters on the show are at this event and something tragic happens and they’re rushed to the hospital.”

The actor is also appearing in the final season of Tyler Perry’s Netflix series Beauty in Black where he shows up in 7 episodes. Boyd previously appeared in short term roles on General Hospital, The Young and the Restless and Days of Our Lives. In primetime, he also played the role of Mitch on 90210 and played Oscar in Tyler Perry’s The Haves and Have Nots for five-seasons.
