It means only BTG gets screwed. How convenient.

It started in 2019, when CBS secured the English-language rights to replace Turner Sports. The decision was then made in August 2020, when they secured a deal for streaming; it was accelerated from a planned 2021 start to secure exclusive rights and boost the Paramount+ streaming service (then CBS All Access) with high-profile, marquee sports content to attract subscribers. And the deal was extended in 2022 to exist through 2030, long before Beyond the Gates was on the table.

So CBS pre-empts their soaps for European soccer games and ABC pre-empts GH because King Jug Ears of the UK was giving a speech.

Why does the corporate media assume US audiences would want to see these things?

They don’t “assume” anything. They look at data and ratings. There are far more soccer fans in this country than there are of the three remaining broadcast soaps. And any time Congress comes together, Democrats and Republicans alike, is newsworthy at this point in time. Plus, with our allies’ anger with our current administration, many were interested in what King Charles III would say. (Why be needlessly and classlessly rude to him, by the way?) He had to walk a fine line of diplomacy there.

I do agree that ABC could have waited for the final 3 minutes of GH before beginning their coverage of the King’s speech. That did seem odd.

I don’t think it’s right!!put it on prime time or something,everybody not watch soccer or sports start it at 3:00 pm or something

I’m so sick and tired of CBS interrupting Y&R and B&B! Usually for nothing! This is one of them! How many people in this country give a damn about these games? I guess CBS HAS TO PLEASE THE ORANGE MAN!

Put it on ESPN

Who made the decision to air a soccer game on daytime t.v.? Leave that to ESPN! Viewers who watch daytime t.v. are absolutely NOT interested in watching soccer. What a horrible executive decision! I’m turning to ABC to watch TheTamron Hall show.

It started in 2019, when CBS secured the English-language rights to replace Turner Sports. The decision was then made in August 2020, when they secured a deal for streaming; it was accelerated from a planned 2021 start to secure exclusive rights and boost the Paramount+ streaming service (then CBS All Access) with high-profile, marquee sports content to attract subscribers. And the deal was extended in 2022 to exist through 2030, long before Beyond the Gates was on the table. So unless they want to nullify a contract, which I doubt they do, we’re seeing this through 2030.

Right

Does CBS know they have stations for sports? If we want to watch sports there are plenty of stations for that. I do not think they should take up regular programming for sports. They also break into programming every time somebody political drops a pencil. It’s ridiculous. So to watch CBS we have to watch unwanted sports and have mercy- unlimited and countless commercials along with the political interruptions. Is it worth it?

Its B.S. im sick ofCBS preempting shows for sports. Put the sports on a different channel or stream it

Then, let’s not forget using the recordings she obtained to blackmail everyone with the the secret that Vernon Dupree (Clifton Davis) and Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) have been trying to keep under wraps about the hate crime years ago, which saw Martin kill one man, while another later died, in an effort to save his grandfather.

NEXT WEEK ON BEYOND THE GATES

Now, the week of October 19-23 previews that it appears that Hayley may be pregnant (take a look at the video preview below) with Bill’s child when she gets a little queasy, after she went to see her partner in crime, Randy (Maurice P. Kerry) to get a fresh ID to skip out of town and away from the DMV.

In fact, on the Tuesday, October 20 episode, official BTG spoilers indicate, Vernon assures Dani (Karla Mosley) that he’s got things handled, while Hayley’s ready for her next act, while on the Friday, October 23 episode, Leslie (Trisha Mann-Grant) has devastating words for Hayley and Bill’s got another thing coming.

If you have a question for Marquita but cannot join us for the live broadcast, drop it in the comment section and we just might ask it during the chat.

Now let us know, do you think Hayley will be pregnant? How will she continue to evade any prison time? What has been your favorite scene of Marquita Goings on Beyond the Gates thus far? Comment below.
