CBS Announces ‘Beyond the Gates’ and ‘The Young and the Restless’ Crossover with 6 Genoa City Residents Heading to Fairmont Crest
- Beyond the Gates and The Young and the Restless will have a multi-episode crossover this June featuring six characters from Genoa City traveling to Fairmont Crest.
- Y&R stars, Eric Braeden, Peter Bergman, Michael Mealor, Susan Walters, Bryton James and Melissa Ordway will all appear.
- The storyline involves a fundraiser for Martin Richardson played by Beyond the Gates star Brandon Claybon which triggers dramatic consequences.
CBS unveiled a landmark daytime television event on Tuesday, revealing a sweeping multi-episode crossover between its powerhouse daytime Beyond the Gates and The Young and the Restless.
In the crossover event, six iconic residents from Y&R’s Genoa City will travel to BTG’s posh gated community, Fairmont Crest. The episodes will air on Beyond the Gates this coming June.
Look for in story, longtime close friends Vernon Dupree (Clifton Davis) and the patriarch of the Newman family, the legendary Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), to reunite at a high-profile political fundraiser. Over the years, apparently Victor has backed Vernon’s political campaigns, while Vernon has championed legislation benefiting Newman Enterprises, which is definitely an alliance built on loyalty, influence and mutual gain.

Now, Vernon has asked Victor to serve as the keynote speaker for his grandson Martin’s (Brandon Claybon) political fundraiser. But that’s not all! Also in attendance will be Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) who has been a longtime friend of Martin, from when they first bonded in New York City after college. Martin extended the invitation to Kyle, who arrived alongside his parents, Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters).
Abby (Melissa Ordway) and Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) are also on the VIP guest list, with Devon fielding an unexpected business opportunity from BTG’s Anita Dupree (Tamara Tunie). As the evening unfolds, a shocking event occurs, abruptly derailing the fundraiser and triggering dramatic consequences that will impact every guest in attendance!
This will mark Beyond the Gates third crossover since it made its network television debut back on February 24, 2025. Bryton James, was the first to appear from Y&R in scenes with Clifton Davis, Tamara Tunie and Karla Mosley (Dani Dupree). Next, The Bold and the Beautiful’s Thorsten Kaye appeared as Ridge Forrester, when he interacted with Mosley and Sean Freeman (Andre).
Beyond the Gates is produced by CBS Studios, as part of the CBS Studios/NAACP Venture, in partnership with P&G Studios, a division of Procter & Gamble. Created by head writer Michele Val Jean, executive producers include Val Jean, Sheila Ducksworth, Julie Carruthers, Tracey Thomson, Leon W. Russell, Derrick Johnson, Anna Saalfeld and Lela Coffey.
The daytime drama is broadcast on weekdays on CBS (2:00-3:00 PM, ET/1:00-2:00 PM, PT) and is available to stream on Paramount+**.
So, what do you think about the upcoming crossover story event; which will be over multiple episodes which has Eric Braeden, Peter Bergman, Susan Walters, Melissa Ordway, Bryton James and Michael Mealor appearing on Beyond the Gates? Intrigued by the storyline and the dramatic turn of events that will transpire at the major fundraiser for BTG’s Martin Richardson? Let us know via the comment section.
Not interested in these crossovers. BTG is strong on its own. I especially don’t the kind and sweet Vernon Dupree anywhere near Victor Newman. Thankfully Nikki Newman stays in Wisconsin.
Hopefully the BTG writers will be responsible for the storylines and dialogue and not the Y&R writers.
“Hopefully the BTG writers will be responsible for the storylines and dialogue and not the Y&R writers.”
From your lips to the universe’s ear.
Considering this will air on Beyond the Gates, it will be their writers, like it has been with crossovers that occurred last year.
WOW! This is so exciting! I love crossovers! Vernon and Victor being allies is no surprise, and I love that Kyle Abbott and Martin now have a backstory! Now Devon is headed back with Abby in tow! I wonder if the dramatic event will be a shooting? Now that BTG is about to hit the year mark, its time for some kind of dramatic event like a whodunit! I will definitely be tuning in!
watch both shows but for some reason just not into this . one of the biggest problems is devon and abby they are a snore fest and i honestly can’t stand the character of Devon
I’ve never cared for the Devon character.
The only Abby that has interested me was Emme Rylan’s take on her, especially her and Marco Dapper’s Carmine. What a hunk!
you are absolutely right about Emme Rylan she was the best abby and the show could definitely use a return of Carmine
Yes, I would love it if Emme Rylan was willing to come back to the show, but I think she’s content with where she’s at in life.
I hope this has nothing to do with race because he is an outstanding actor. IJS
I am thoroughly chuffed over this. This is going to be a not-to-miss event. I cannot wait for these characters to [finally] get some good, quality writing for the first time in six-plus years! I only wish Maura West were still Diane; I’d love to see her on Beyond the Gates.
If the show was doing so great, it wouldn’t need to do so many of these crossovers to try to bring in more viewers.
This has been done with many of the CBS shows in the past, along with ABC and NBC. All the shows at the time, All My Children, One Life to Live, General Hospital and Another World were doing quite well in the ratings when the crossovers were done.
Sure, but not that early in their existence.
Incorrect, GH’s Steve Hardy (the OG OG Steve!) crossed over to OLTL in its first year on the air – 1968.
Back then, this required more coordination as both shows were shot in sequence and aired either live (or live to tape within 2 weeks). ABC flew John Beradino to NYC (GH was done in LA) to appear in scenes at Llanview Hospital.
Y&R and B&B occasionally do crossovers. OLTL and AMC did them back in the day. Hoping for a ratings boost, sure, but not a desperate measure.
I would think these people from Y&R would bring down BTG viewers, not thrill them. Just pray that Griffith has no hand in any of the writing, otherwise it will be a wasted effort.
Should be very interesting crossover!
I assume the Y&R cast is heading to Atlanta.
Welcome to the South!
Maybe Sheila can cross over to BTG and go toe-to-toe with Lesley once her marriage to Deacon implodes…think of the scheming they could do together… I’d love it anyway!
Crossovers only work if you watch both shows, otherwise it’s irritating and a waste of screen time. I would prefer the GC residents to stay in GC and get on with things there. So I’ll miss out on this.
Love the crossover within the Y&R and BTG cast.
When I found out about this crossover & that it would involve #YR, I’m hoping that JG had no hand in writing this crossover. If he did, I’m going to notice the difference between his writing and Val Jeans. I can really tell the difference in the writing between both shows.
Why would he have a say in the writing? He is not a writer on Beyond the Gates.
Love the crossover theme. Can’t wait.
I love BTG . Should be interesting….I will watch
I can’t wait it sounds so exciting

‘Beyond the Gates’ Tamara Tunie Shares Bittersweet Moment of Learning She’s a Daytime Emmy Nominee Following the Loss of ATWT’s Scott Bryce
As many are celebrating their nominations for the upcoming 53rd Annual Daytime Emmy Awards on October 30, for some it was a “mixed bag of emotions,” as detailed by first time nominee Tamara Tunie (Anita Dupree, Beyond the Gates), who was named as one of the five women in the coveted Outstanding Lead Performance in a Daytime Drama Series: Actress category.
The Lead Actress nominations were actually announced on Monday on Entertainment Tonight, ahead of the full nomination announcement by NATAS on Tuesday. Sadly, on Sunday night, Tamara’s longtime friend, and former As the World Turns co-stars, Scott Bryce (ex-Craig Montgomery) passed away from cancer at 68-years-old.
Michael Fairman TV first reported the heartbreaking news of Scott’s death, and his beloved son, Jackson took to his Instagram to announce the death of his father, sharing, “What began as stage three esophageal cancer eventually spread and became brain tumors that took his life away from him.”

THE LOSS OF ‘AS THE WORLD TURNS’ CO-STAR
Tamara spoke on receiving the recognition from peers while mourning the loss and trying to process the news of Bryce’s death via heartfelt message on her Instagram on Wednesday. Tunie had appeared on As the World Turns as Jessica Griffin from 1986-1995, 1999-2007 and 2009. She crossed paths with Bryce during several of his runs on the show 1982-1987, 1988-89, 1990, 1993-94 and 2007-08.
In her video message, Tunie explained she was at the airport in Atlanta (where Beyond the Gates is taped) and was heading to Pittsburgh for a speaking engagement, but she took a few moments to address these two moments in her life.
Tamara began her video with, “Hey family. I didn’t want to let any more time go by without expressing some of the emotions I had been feeling over the past couple of days. Many of you know that a dear friend of mine passed Sunday night. He was like a brother to me. We were friends for 40 something years and we actually met on the set of As the World Turns, a daytime drama. Monday, a mere 24 hours later, it was announced that I was nominated for an Emmy award for Lead Actress in a Daytime Drama.”
Sharing how the loss of Scott Bryce has deeply-affected her, Tamara added, “So, you can only imagine the rollercoaster of emotions that I have been feeling since Sunday night. I know my daytime soap opera brother is smiling down on me and cheering me on, and I am so grateful for this recognition from my peers. Being nominated for the first time it’s a mixed bag of feelings I have to tell you.”

BEYOND THE GATES FAMILY SCORES BIG IN EMMY NOMINATIONS
However, Tamara took some moments to recognize Beyond the Gates Emmy nomination haul, expressing, “I’m looking forward to the next couple of months leading up to the awards as we continue to create great television. I am so proud of the rest of my cast members, not only those who are nominated, but every single person who works on this show and gives a hundred percent of themselves every single time they show up. Our crew, our production staff, the Beyond the Gates family is truly special.”
“To have these 15 nominations is really extraordinary. Thank you family for watching. Thank you for supporting us. Thank you for supporting me,” concluded Tunie.
