Look for more drama from The Dupree Family. CBS has renewed its hit daytime drama “Beyond The Gates” for a second season. The soap, which premiered on CBS in February, has quickly fits into the network’s schedule of #1 programs which includes #1 drama “The Young and the Restless,” “The Bold and the Beautiful,” “The Drew Barrymore Show,” and “The Price is Right.”

Beyond The Gates” is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington, D.C., in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States; a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home.

But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those who live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have “made it” and those who haven’t are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.
