On September 6th, Days of Our Lives is getting a limited series over on Peacock called Beyond Salem. The week-long event is bringing back several familiar faces that we haven’t seen in Salem for a while.
One of those faces is so iconic to the show that one of her was not enough. Therefore, we will get Lisa Rinna as Billie Reed and RuPaul’s Drag Race’s Jackie Cox as, well, we don’t know, but they look like her, whichever she, she is.
Rinna is not the only star to return. She will be joined by Charles Shaughnessy as Shane Donovan, Thaao Penghlis as Tony DiMera, Leann Hunley as Anna DiMera, Christie Clark as Carrie Brady, Austin Peck as Austin Reed, Greg Rikaart as Leo Stark, Chandler Massey as Will Horton, Zachary Atticus Tinker as Sonny Kiriakis and Peter Porte as Kyle Graham.
What is bringing them all together? Over a long weekend, John (Drake Hogestyn) & Marlena (Deidre Hall) travel to Zurich, Ben & Ciara have a romantic getaway in New Orleans, Chad visits some old friends in Phoenix, and Abe (James Reynolds), Paulina (Jackée Harry), Lani, and Eli vacation in Miami. All find themselves embroiled in a mystery involving stolen jewels which, in the wrong hands, could cause dire consequences for Salem. It’s a race against time for ISA agent Billie Reed as she crosses the globe in search of this missing treasure.
Hopefully, if this does well, we get more week-long specials from the Soap Opera on the streaming service. So, make sure to stream new episodes every day the week of September 6th.
