The Emmy award-winning digital drama series “The Bay” will release its highly-anticipated Season 7 later this month.
It will premiere Season 7 with “all-new” episodes Monday through Friday starting December 19. Viewers can catch the daytime drama series on weekdays at 3 p.m. EST on Popstar! TV with encore presentations at 8 p.m. EST and 11 p.m. EST.
“The Bay” also recently completed its milestone 100th episode which will be released in 2023. Since its inception, the serialized crime romance has garnered a total of 23 Daytime Emmy wins out of 56 nominations from the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
In a town cursed by the spirit of a murdered senator (Golden Globe winner and special guest star Bruce Davison), the residents of Bay City struggle after a shocking cataclysmic event leaves everyone wondering who lives and who dies.
“Growing up watching American daytime dramas in a Latino household where telenovelas were also a big part of our upbringing, I’ve always wanted to combine these two worlds and feel our creative team really helped accomplish that in these latest episodes,” said Gregori J. Marin, the creator, director, and showrunner of “The Bay.”
The multi-camera drama series is recorded at Associated Television Studios in Burbank and on location throughout Southern California. The series also shot location sequences in Puerto Rico this season.
The new drama-filled episodes of Season 7 feature Daytime Emmy winners Kristos Andrews and Karrueche Tran as super couple Pete and Vivian Garrett, Daytime Emmy-winners Mary Beth Evans (“Days of Our Lives”) as Sara Garrett, Tristan Rogers (“General Hospital”) as Commissioner Lex Martin, A Martinez (“Santa Barbara”) as Nardo Ramos, Eric Nelsen (“1883”) as Daniel Garrett, and Mike Manning (“This is Us” and “Days of our Lives”) as Caleb McKinnon.
Andrews will be doing double duty as Pete Garrett’s diabolical twin brother Adam Kenway, a role that garnered him a Daytime Emmy for “Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Drama Series” in 2021.
Other returning series regulars are Daytime Emmy nominees Jackie Zeman and Alicia Leigh Willis, Brandon Beemer and Matthew Ashford, as well as Celeste Fianna, Najee De-Tiege, Taylor Stanley, Dante Aleksander, Carlo Mendez, and this season’s newcomer Kiara Liz Ortega.
Guest stars include Daytime Emmy nominee Bianca D’Ambrosio and Daytime Emmy winner Chiara D’Ambrosio, Réal Andrews, Cari Shane, Alexia Robinson, Daniel Covin, Ciara Hanna, and Txunamy Ortiz, among others.
Additional special guest stars include Joe Lando (“Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman”), Stephen Schnetzer (“Another World”), John Aprea (“The Godfather II & III”), and multiple Latin Grammy winner Draco Rosa.
