Days of our Lives is just about to wrap up production on its 55th season, but as of now a deal has not been made between NBC and Sony for anymore seasons.
Therefore, TVLine is reporting that everyone in the cast has been released from their contacts.
Does that mean that NBC’s lone soap opera is over? Not quite yet? The show tapes 8 months in advance, so there are episodes into the summer. There is hope that it will be back and production can begin again in March.
Here is the snafu, now that the actors do not have contracts, there is nothing that says to they can get their old salaries back. For the cast members who have been their a long time, their salaries might be greatly reduced. Thus, it will be up to them to decide if they want to come back at a lower rate. Which means some favorites might not return if the show is to return.
As someone who grew up watching DOOL, I hope they find a way to bring it back. Especially since this year time jump off such an interesting concept.
