It looks like the critics have spoken. Of course, we are talking about Beyond the Gates as it looks like the first several episodes of the show haven’t really impressed critics of the daytime television audience out there.
Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
Critics Slam Beyond The Gates: ‘The Acting Sucks!’
While a lot of people agree that it’s going to take some time before Beyond the Gates finds it’s groove, others think that it’s too over the top, too soon.
Whatever, the case, some people think that the new CBS soap is going to have to change its direction if it wants a longer shelf life.
Many soap fans have even taken to social media to weigh in on the matter.
Some have even commented with, “I watched the first episode. It was not that great IMO. I felt the acting didn’t feel authentic. Of course this is all new and I realize they are just getting the feel of their characters.
Some actors were better than others and had less scenery chewing. I will of course give something new a chance.”
Another critic wrote, “With the opportunity to watch both shows on their streaming service, I don’t think BTG will push GH out the door.
I watched GH, as always, but plan to watch BTG this weekend to see if I like it. There’s room for both. Didn’t DOOL come on at the same time as GH, before moving to Peacock?”
What’s Next For Beyond The Gates?
And then there was this comment as well: “Everyone needs to get in the GH line and shut up already! Just because a new soap has started (of which I haven’t nor will I ever watch it), doesn’t mean at all that General Hospital is going to be affected in any way, shape or form folks!”
“General Hospital has been on television for 62 years now and, in my opinion, isn’t going ANYWHERE for the next 62 years (I honestly don’t see an end). So, those who choose to watch BTG, so that is there choice. I know what mine will ALWAYS be. PERIOD.”
So far the producers of Beyond The Gates have not made any comments about the matter. But whether or not the soap will survive beyond its first season remains to be seen.
