Alright, Naruto fans, buckle up. Do you remember that wild instant when Might Guy lost his mind and turned into this crazy red death machine, nearly sending god-mode Madara Uchiha to another dimension? Exactly, that’s the fight we’re talking about. The one where Madara himself was like, “You almost killed me.” Well, a new fan theory just came out, and it might completely change how you see that scene forever.

According to this theory, the Eight Gates technique wasn’t actually intended for training, self-improvement, or even to protect your friends with guts and spirit. Nope. It was made for suicide missions. Yes, the Eight Gates were originally cooked up during the Warring States period as a form of ‘last laugh’ strategy. Basically, “I’m going to die anyway, but I’m taking you with me.” Let’s break this wild theory down.

In Naruto, the Eight Gates...

Beyond the Gates 2-week spoilers for April 28 – May 9, 2025 see Dr. Nicole Dupree Richardson’s (Daphnee Duplaix) and Dr. Ted Richardson’s (Maurice Johnson) relationship is going to explode, and Chelsea Hamilton (RhonniRose Mantilla) is provoking someone.

But also know there are two preemption days, so we’re only getting three episodes, which is kind of crushing because we are right at this dramatic explosion moment. And cliffhanger Friday this week is not to be missed.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Week of April 28th – May 2nd

Monday, April 28th is season 1, episode 44. Ashley Morgan (Jen Jacob) and Derek Baldwin (Ben Gavin) are adjusting to their new normal. She has agreed that since Derek’s lease is up, he can move in. But how will Ashley handle him being there all the time? It’s a little place, they may start rubbing each other the wrong way. Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne (Arielle Prepetit...

Beyond the Gates spoilers suggest Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) has a major secret he doesn’t want anyone to find out about.

In fact, for reason or another, instead of turning to his parents, Ted Richardson (Maurice Johnson) and Nicole Richardson (Daphnée Duplaix), he went to grandparents Anita Dupree (Tamara Tunie) and Vernon Dupree (Clifton Davis) for help, and now all three are desperate to keep things hidden.

Plus, somehow, Bill Hamilton (Timon Durrett) is wrapped up in this mess, too.

Btg fans have been buzzing about what Martin did, and the reason why he’s terrified over his husband, Bradley “Smitty” Smith (Mike Manning) and the rest of the world finding out. Here are three theories.

Theory #1 – A Drunk Driving Accident

One major component of this all is the violent dreams Martin has about his “secret”. There seem to be police cars around, and things are dark; however, it...

Sir Ian McKellen wasn’t about to let Gandalf go full party wizard. When Peter Jackson floated a scene with the grey wizard getting a little too tipsy, McKellen firmly shut it down. In his eyes, Gandalf was all wisdom and grace, not the type to down ale and stumble around the Shire.

It was a rare moment where the actor overruled the director, and yep, Middle-earth is better for it. A drunk wizard might work in other franchises, but definitely Not in The Lord of the Rings.

Read more below to find out about what is coming up on the new CBS soap!

Chelsea Hamilton’s Change Of Heart

Beyond the Gates spoilers for Friday, April 4 indicate that Chelsea will change her mind about a situation, but what could this be about? Chelsea recently decided to quit modeling and pursue her dream of launching her own purse line.

She also recently had a confrontation with her former-friend/new stepmom, Hayley Lawson-Hamilton (Marquita Goings).

Hayley wants to mend fences between Bill Hamilton (Timon Durrett) and his daughters and tried to convince Chelsea to let him back into her life.

However, the conversation turned heated,...

Beyond the Gates spoilers tease that the new CBS soap continues to come in hot!

It’s been a whole month of Fairmont Crest chaos, and fans can’t get enough of the show.

May sweeps are on the horizon, which will be the first for the soap.

We expect even more jaw-dropping moments leading up to the pivotal month.

The latest preview video for Beyond the Gates reveals the daytime drama isn’t letting up on the gas.

In fact, things are heating up as feuds, secrets, lies, and family drama take center stage on Beyond the Gates.

Jacob and Naomi make waves

This week, Naomi (Arielle Prepetit) dropped the bomb that she’s suing Bill’s (Timon Kyle Durrett) law firm for sexual harassment. In the footage, Naomi feels the need to call 911, but is it about the lawsuit or something else?

A flip of a scene shows...

Beyond the Gates spoilers hint the week of March 24-28 will offer plenty of bombshells, chaos, and drama. After two days of pre-emptions, thanks to Ncca college basketball, fans can expect some explosive moments on the soap.

Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) will get some shocking news, while Vanessa McBride (Lauren Burglioli) teams up with Joey Armstrong (Jon Lindstrom), and Katherine “Kat” Richardson (Colby Muhammad) sets a trap for Eva Thomas (Ambyr Michelle).

Beyond The Gates

Beyond the Gates spoilers suggest things are getting ugly between Katherine “Kat” Richardson (Colby Muhammad) and Eva Thomas (Ambyr Michelle). The two recently had a massive confrontation and have not seen eye-to-eye since the day Eva started her temporary assistant job. While she’s justified in her suspicion of Eva, is Kat justified in how she has lashed back at the young woman or is acting like a spoiled brat?

Kat Richardson’s Spidey-Senses Are Tingling

Everyone, including Kat’s parents, Nicole Richardson (Daphnée Duplaix) and Ted Richardson (Maurice Johnson) seem to think that she’s acting like a brat. There’s no reason (in their opinion) for her to treat Eva the way she is treating her.

Nicole and Ted seem like humble people who appreciate the place they are in and make a conscious effort to treat their employees with respect and like they are part of the family.

Beyond The Gates

Beyond the Gates spoilers indicate that just as Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) thought she was over Bill Hamilton (Timon Durrett), her ex-husband pulled a stunt that sucked her back in!

During the Monday, March 10 episode, Dani was arrested for the shots she fired during Bill and Hayley Lawson’s (Marquita Goings) wedding. For all the drama she endured, Bill ended up dropping the charges, which, ironically left Dani feeling as if he was still in love with her.

Time To Break It All Down

During the week of March 3-7, Dani went to visit Hayley to let her know that she was over her and Bill’s betrayal. Dani made it clear that she was ready to move on and leave the past in the past.

Fast forward to the Friday, March 7 episode, and Dani gathered her family together to let them know that she was done...

CBS says L+3 streaming provided a boost of 13.6 percent over the show’s linear only audience, which was better than The Young and the Restless (10.9%) and The Bold and the Beautiful (12.6%).

L+7-day viewing for the premiere episode averaged 3.M viewers, higher than the last daytime drama debut, which was Passions on July 5, 1999 (2.96M).

Eva Thomas Sets Her Plan In Motion

According to Leslie, Ted Richardson (Maurice Johnson) is Eva’s biological father, who washed his hands of his daughter when he found out Leslie was pregnant. This may, or may not, be the case; however, Eva is completely on board with getting even for her mom’s sake.

Now, she...

The Final Saga of One Piece is predicted to have the most large-scale battle of pirates going directly against the World Government. Now that we’ve entered the Elbaph Arc, fans are also waiting for one Straw Hat Pirate to die by sacrifice or otherwise.

However, Oda doesn’t have the best record of letting his characters who seemingly died stay dead. Perhaps it’s a Shonen curse and the authors are afraid that fans will react badly. This is exactly where Naruto fell short when the protagonist saved Might Guy after his near-death state.

Last week, CBS properly hyped up its brand-new daytime drama with a five-part Beyond the Gates: Welcome to the Neighborhood extravaganza. Each episode took viewers behind the scenes of Beyond the Gates, providing tons of information and fun looks. It also spread the good word about the show, which is making its big debut on Monday, February 24.

A Fun and Informative Introduction Female Forces of Nature

It took four years to make this soap dream a reality. Some of the show’s biggest pluses involve who helped bring this baby to fruition. Head writer and Showrunner Michele Val Jean and NAACP’s Sheila Ducksworth are the two women responsible for leading the Gates to air. In fact, they are the first two black female executive producers of a daytime soap opera ever.

If one of the newest products from consumer-goods giant Procter & Gamble reminds you of something the company made in the 1960s, 70s or 80s, well, there’s good reason.

When “Beyond the Gates” debuts Monday afternoon on CBS, it will mark a return by the company, one of the world’s biggest makers of household staples such as laundry detergent, deodorant and floor cleaner, to the world of soap operas. In a different era, Procter was a producer of some of the genre’s longest-running examples, including “Guiding Light” and “As the World Turns,” and they were as important to Procter as Mr. Clean, Pampers and Tide. P&g is teaming up with a joint venture between CBS and the NAACP to produce the show.

Soap Hub looks at the Hits and Misses for the week of February 17-21 in the worlds of Days of Our Lives, General Hospital, The Bold and the Beautiful,, The Young and the Restless, and Beyond the Gates.

Top 10 Hits and Misses

10. Hit: The Beyond the Gates press tour. It has been so great to see how CBS has been promoting Btg. There have been appearances on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the five-part Btg: Welcome to the Neighborhood Special Entertainment Tonight produced, the Paley Center panel and screening, a billboard in Times Square, and more. This is a proper way to introduce a new soap.

General Hospital (Gh) fans continue to miss Kelly Monaco in the land of Port Charles. Sadly, Sam McCall was murdered on Halloween at the hands of Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober). While the vile criminal is close to getting justice for this, viewers still can’t help but feel as if Gh made a major mistake in letting Monaco go.

After 21 years with the soap opera, Monaco was forced to move on, but could there be something brighter on the horizon?

Is Kelly Monaco Heading To Salem?

There is a buzz that Monaco could head to Days of Our Lives (Dool). After all, the soap was quick to scoop up Steve Burton (Gh’s Jason Morgan) when he was let go in 2021 after not complying with Gh/ABC’s new Covid-19 mandate.

Still, while fans sparked speculation on social media, the sad reality is that Monaco is not slated to join Dool anytime soon.

Fans were pleasantly surprised this past weekend when news hit that soap veteran Jon Lindstrom, best known for his portrayal of General Hospital’s (Gh) good and evil twin brothers, Kevin Collins and Ryan Chamberlain, was joining the cast of the new CBS daytime drama, Beyond the Gates (Btg). Could this mean he’s exiting Gh?

Here’s What We Know

As of this writing, neither Lindstrom nor Gh have confirmed that the actor is leaving the soap.

While he is playing a new character on BTS, Lindstrom is currently on recurring status with Gh.

This means it’s entirely possible that he can continue with both shows moving forward.

After all, there are plenty of stars in the land of daytime drama that juggle roles and schedules on multiple soaps.

Wally Kurth is a fine example, playing Gh’s Ned Quartermaine, while also on Days of Our Lives (Dool) as Justin Kiriakis.

The tale of The Lord of the Rings set the precedent for modern high fantasy. Peter Jackson’s live-action trilogy revolutionized cinematic adaptations. And Sir Ian McKellen lived up to the name and reputation of Gandalf the White. J.R.R. Tolkien’s imaginative universe never felt more realized than in the hands of Peter Jackson and his merry band of hobbits, trolls, men, and elves.

However, despite the colorful and honest rendition of Tolkien’s Middle-earth, there was a somewhat troublesome aspect in Jackson’s vision of the Lotr trilogy. This not only irked the young actors in the film but Sir Ian McKellen, too, regardless of how brilliant he was in film and theater.

A special panel event has been scheduled to celebrate the soap’s groundbreaking premiere, which will take place four days before the daytime drama airs its first episode. More details on this, below.

Now that Season 4 of Slow Horses has wrapped up on Apple TV+ following a series of shocking revelations, a tragic loss in Slough House, and a drink shared in silence, audiences will have a moment to catch their breaths. But not for long. Season 5 is already on its way, and despite a release date that's still months away, we sure do know a lot about it.

Debuting in 2022, Slow Horses is based on the series of English spy novels crafted by author Mick Herron, chronicling the misadventures of England's most ineffective agents. Relegated to the afterthought outpost known as Slough House, these agents are all under the watchful eye of Gary Oldman's Jackson Lamb.

The war in Naruto and One Piece are worlds apart. Masashi Kishimoto was on the right track with the setup and the emotional match-ups, however, the final twist in the war ruined everything that came before it. Kaguya’s introduction changed things for the worse and prevented the Fourth Great Ninja War from being something on par with the Marineford Arc in One Piece. Might Guy was the key to significantly improving the war arc.

There was a clear option to raise the stakes with Guy’s death, that Kishimoto completely ignored. He created one of the best match-ups only to backtrack his steps with Naruto’s arrival. With Guy threatening his life against Madara, an emotional storm was brewing that was left unresolved. By not following this plotline to its full potential, Kishimoto killed the...

The Amazing Digital Circus introduces viewers to a fascinating yet unsettling scenario.

The core concept centers around a group of individuals who suddenly find themselves existing as animated avatars within a bizarre virtual circus, unable to recall how they arrived or discover any means of departure.

Forced to entertain an unknown control through strange tasks and performances, they face an unknowable fate with no glimpses of the life left outside. It’s a deeply creative dystopian scenario that taps into modern anxieties around technology, control, and the nature of reality.

So far, three episodes have aired, gaining an immense viewership in...

Beyond The Gates...

When Masashi Kishimoto’s franchise transitioned from Naruto to Boruto, fans were excited to see the various characters from the prequel series become adults and deal with a new ninja world. However, these expectations were quickly destroyed as Boruto could not live up to the standards of Naruto and ultimately got criticized by fans.

Kishimoto had the chance to showcase the talents of the old characters and their powerful techniques, but he dropped the bags as he completely ignored any kind of nostalgic aspect. Fans were hopeful that they might once again get to see their favorite jutsus, and although some techniques from Naruto were included, one of the most prominent ones was left out.

This technique was none other than the Eight Inner Gates, which is considered to be the pinnacle of taijutsu. This technique was mastered by Might Guy in...

The anticipation builds as The Gates prepares to premiere on CBS in January 2025. We can’t wait! Created by the talented Michele Val Jean, who also serves as the show’s executive producer and head writer, this new soap opera promises to deliver drama, intrigue, and complex, soapy characters.

CBS made history earlier this year and announced there was a new soap opera coming to their daytime drama line-up, to replace The Talk. The Gates will be produced by Procter & Gamble and already has an impressive staff of writers. Here’s what we know so far about CBS’ new soap!

What Is The Gates About

On the surface, viewers might think that what they're seeing is something that's already been said and done, but, upon closer inspection, it is truly much more nuanced than originally believed. There's a reason why Japanese viewers voted it number one in Ranked.net's "2024 Winter Anime Evaluation."

Naruto's Shadow Clone Jutsu allowed the eventual Seventh Hokage to train more effectively than anyone else, but his first training regimen would have made him stronger than One-Punch Man's Saitama. The comically strong gag manga character Saitama claims that he attained his strength with an intense daily exercise routine that he accomplished every day for three years. While the series still has not confirmed if that is actually true, one of Naruto's early chapters reveals the young shinobi's own training that would have put One-Punch Man to shame.

Early into One-Punch Man, the series reveals what Saitama did to attain such overwhelming power.
