It's feeling like the end of days for the stars of"Days of Our Lives" -- the entire cast just got released from their contracts.
TMZ has confirmed the producers of the more than 50-year-old soap opera let all their actors out of their deals ... meaning they're all free to get new jobs, but it doesn't necessarily mean the show's definitely sunk. The NBC sudser, which is about to begin season 55, is going on indefinite hiatus. The network is expected to decide in early 2020 whether to bring it back for season 56.
The good news for 'Days' fans ... the soap shoots 8 months in advance, and there's going to be enough episodes in the bank when the show halts production at the end of November to last through Summer 2020. Whew. So, to be clear ..."Days of Our Lives" -- which first aired in 1965 -- has NOT been canceled. Not yet. It's possible they'll bring everyone back, if the network re-ups, but at lower salaries.
Fake news!!! How about you just stick with the kartrashians and leave the other stuff alone.
All our grandparents bout too.........
nope all fake news you guys suck
Get your facts right.
Fake news ! Show wasn’t canceled ! Actors and head writers already said you guys made up the story !
betke_brenda
Huh
That’s crazy
💔
I was forced to watch this at my grandma's house recently. The same cast from 25 years ago is still on there. John Black with gray hair. Marlena still looks exactly the same. I don't understand how people watch it daily.
😮
You need to delete with this bogus stuff right here. Thank you so much. Camila Banus just cleared this up.
FAKE! Just gone done watching camilabanus live. She clarified saying that they are just taking their ANNUAL hiatus a little early since they are so far ahead in filming
This is show is still on 😳😳😳
All those poor grandmas! What will they watch now as they pound down that box of wine? Maybe Steve Harvey. He's all over the place.
Noooooooooo
Where is Todd Manning?
NovemberSweeps 👏
So sad. Is GH still airing? Does this mean Y+R and B+B are the only ones left?
Thanks Obama
StephanoDiMera may not be back...
End of days.
lisarinna
Bring back Passions
My 11 year old self is in mourning somewhere
Probably not the best --wait for it --days of their lives
We are all replaceable 🤷🏻♀️
nbcdays So does that mean 'Days Of Our Lives' will be over soon? 😢😢😢
Canceled
No, what will my poor mom watch now
I cannot believe this entire time it was a real show..... so Dr. Drake Ramoray was cast on an actual show. wow
To be replaced with... As The White House Turns
I’ll bet you the same shot from 29 years ago was still going on.
this makes no sense.. they just announced the upcoming story line how they're doing a time jump.. took them months to plan, why would they do that ?
Soap operas are still a thing
I am glad I quit watching soaps 15 years ago. I knew they would bail on me. Eventually.
Is Stefano still on there? This was my show...I never got over Carly being buried alive. RIP, Days.
Seen this HAPPEN many times Edge of night Port charles Too many to remember Problem is FOLX WANNA see the ACTORS in ALL THEIR GLORY ...not this Lol
Nooo! I've been watching DOOL since I was a kid- snow days, when I was sick. Back in the day when there were only three networks! They better come back!
How are they going to have the Daytime Emmys with just three Soaps left on the air?
LeeMTipton Is there no god? Okay, I already know there isn’t.
Do general hospital next , my girlfriend has at least 30 hours on my dvr!
WTF?!
Fuck NBC & its parent corporation.
My mother in 1996 will be devastated
Stefano is behind this isn’t he?
But what about Naomi?
Wow. I watched DAYS till the Marlena is possessed storyline. Haven't watched since, but I'm sorry to see it go.
My jaw has hit the floor. Yes, I'm a lifer fan!! Maybe I'll time jump and they'll be back on! I need my days!
What!!!!!!
Finally! Let this show die
This was still a show? Like currently?
Soap Operas are a relic of the past. Maybe a weekly installment would be effective. At least give it a proper send off.
Wow right before Christmas too! That’s cold blooded
Damn. I didn’t know it was still on. I thought Young&theRestless was the last one still going.
Nooooooo!!!!!!they have to renew this !!!
Does Dean Winchester need to save the day
I wondered why this Lame fast forward into the future occurred. Sad to see this as I was still watching.
Sounds like a nice way that they are cancelling the show. They have never done this apparently before. - very suspicious. I don’t watch anyway.
What would Alice and Tom Horton say about that... FYI, it you never watched in the hay day you have no idea who I am referring.
Poor Joey.
1974 instated watching..😪
Huh!!!!😓
If there is no cast and the show has go on 'hiatus,' then its's cancelled.
Without Hope and Bo .. it was unwatchable.
Oh snap! This better NOT HAPPEN TO Y&R! My 67-year-old old mom will lose her sh*t! My mom adores Victor Newman! He is way to important🤣! Some of these women have been watching these soaps for 50 years like my momma!
Bold and beautiful worst show ever, who the hell has paid to keep it on air?
When All My Children went off the air. Daytime TV died for me. I watch my Netflix and DVR shows in the afternoon.
Stefano Dimera finally won
Just put it on in the evening it's way better than all these talent and housewives shows
That shit was still on tv. Soap operas made Americans more stupid.
Soaps are pretty much on life support I remember they were big powerhouses growing up in the 90s
McDonald Carey isn’t walking thru that door....
So much of my youth television in one show. I was raised on a dairy farm and we watched it at lunchtime. And then again a stable during college. Sad to hear this. nbcdays
And like sands through the hourglass so are your contracts
Noooooooooooooo!!!!!!!
Should have been finished 10 years ago
Wth?
This is out rages and since they have contracts they should be paid since they haven’t done anything to violate their contract. Cheap move on behalf of the network.
30+ years DOOL viewer here. I have to say I'm not surprised. The head writer has written some terrible SL over the past couple of years. Some that have been hard to watch and he keeps being extremely repetitive. How many times does Ciara need to be kidnapped and taken to a cabin?
my grandma gon be pissed when she find out😂😂💀💀💀
This must have something to do with Stefano...
Joey be like
I’m still nostalgic for the days of Marlena’s possession 💙
Wow
So mad they killed off Gabi’s husband, Stefan and now she is a vixen after Lani 😤
Never heard of an entire cast let go
Say what varjabel ?
No!!! I have watched since I was 10, my mom and I talk weekly and this must continue to go on!!! 😭😭😭😭
Great hopefully reality tv is next
Even Marlena?!?! The woman who never ages?
Put it on Netflix! I can pick up where I left off in 1991....I grew up on this show but I just keep up with a 1 PM time slot between school and work.
They must have run out of sand for the hourglass.
The End of an era. Surprised it lasted this long.
Only Y&R, B&B, and General Hospital remain, but for how long?
As The World Turns! Honestly, who needs soaps when you have the shit show in DC?!!
What the show is allowed to not live up to their end of the contracts? They should be paying the actors for the term of the contracts
Shit, even Joey?
I guess the sands in that hourglass finally ran out. 🤔
The end is near...
Bahahahahahaha.
Long overdue
At least we still have GeneralHospital ;)
This show still exists?
Days off of our lives. Days of our lives off. Days of our off lives. Days of off our lives.
This is still on tv?
I need to find out what happened to dr Jake Moray
It’s obvious that it’s just another clever plot twist and Stefano is really the NBC executive that released them all of their contracts from beyond the grave.
Seriously we have another soap opera going on live from the WH.
I miss Bo snd Hope
This needs to happen to the CBS soaps. They’re both horrible!!
Aww i remember watching days when I got home from school when i was a kid
As much as I don't want to witness the death of yet another soap opera, I hate NBC with such a passion that I'm good with this show ending. Justice for Another World. DaysofOurLives
The show is fantastic and no decision has been made so hopefully people will start tuning in because it’s the best it’s ever been.
Kind of surprised soaps are still on. When I was a kid many moms stayed home and the purpose of the shows. Now both parents need to work to survive.
Having seen it for 5 minutes about 3,000 times I gotta say props to Bo, Hope, the other Bo, Marlena, Roman, the other Roman (John Black), Steve “Patch” Johnson, Billie, the other Billie, Austin, Sammi, Victor (Jen Aniston’s dad), Jack & Jennifer Deveraux, Stefano, etc. Godspeed
Although it has a strong fanbase. It just can't make the generational transition as Millennials/GenZ grow older
I didn’t even know this show was still on the air
What?!
SnottieDrippen JosephCasciaro Y&R would never
What
Whats Going On With DOOL First Thier Is A Time Jump Then They Get Released From Thier Contracts, WT CRAP HAPPENING TO OUR SOAP.
How do y’all what a novela for that long!!
Wow pretty crazy
Damn
People still watch this crap?
How did THAT get written into the script? I watched this show when I was home with my babies until it got just so ridiculous I couldn't stand it any more. Started sewing more. Kept my mind thinking. This was drek In the late 70's. Never watched it again. Didn't improve, did it?
My moms not going to like this news. She’s been watching it since the beginning. 🙄
Wow I hate soap operas but I feel bad for them that’s awful
Sin Cara is seething with jealousy
Good
😮
My grandma and mom used to watch this but tbh I didn't like it
People still watch this shit?
Say waaattttt 🤔🤭
So I guess this is the reason they skipped a whole year!
End times are near...
Like Sand Through The HourGlass So Are The DaysOfOurLives (I only know that cause grandma) 👵🏽♥️🌹 Reality shows killed the soap stars ✨
Is Joey Tribbiani okay?!?! What’s going to happen to Dr Drake Ramoray?😢
Drake Hogestyn has snorted at Stefano dimera for the last time
Is Stafano still alive?
Granny’s gonna flip
I'm sure we could just jam another hour of one of those talk shows where people scream over each other on instead
Ooooowwwweeeee
Someone check on ira
As they should after they jumped the shark with this year fast forward storyline.
With binge culture I think netflix should pick up the entire show and just let us binge it for years. Especially the story lines from the 90s.
I didn't know this show was still on the air.
nbc Plz don’t cancel the last iconic soap on NBC savedays nbcdays
Oh no. What will Joey Tribiani do?
General Hospital is next!
this breaks my heart
Long ago there was a thing called housewives they needed day drama to pass time.🤣
Horrible . I love this show.
theMeg_theLoch
It's about time
Broken glass
Really hoping a bad joke
Guess the sand ran out of the hourglass.
Isn’t this that one soap opera that’s on tv ever since television was invented?
Crazy
Still won't end Stefano.
I hope you've gotten the correct story by now
When my grandma was alive she did not miss an episode. Don’t cancel after all these years. If she was still here she’d be devastated
When you can't tie all the storylines together.. gut the cast and find a new one
I use to watch this show all the time with my mom but after Frances Reid (Alice) left the show and then passed away it wasn't the same show any longer
It makes sense. I didn't know people still watch soap operas. I thought that they died out in the 80s.
about time the sand has run out along time ago
I hope they aren’t canceling Daysof Our Lives! I have watched this show since I was little and can’t imagine not seeing It before my nap! DOOL ItsMySoap DontCancelDOOL
'Day of our Lives' producers fire entire cast with show set to go on indefinite hiatus. 🥰💕😀
They had an extremely long run. Take a bow and some severance pay. RIP Days Of Our Lives.
What's up with this week's shows? They have been really dumb!
MacDonald Carey would not approve!
Soaps are passé ...
It’s like a soap opera.
How many people can they fit in an open elevator shaft?
🙀
I stopped watching about a year ago. I’ve also stopped watching YandR_CBS they are out of storylines. Tired of dead people suddenly alive! BORING
Fun. I need new followers. Old account suspended at 2k
CANCELED
omg
This show is nothing like it use to be... It was so much better a long time ago..
KeituMasike Mfundi wildin
Who still watches this show!!! I didn’t even know it was still on the air! I do know they’ve made a lot of money, so hopefully they have put money away for the rainy days
Makez sense a whole day on those shows takes a momth sh1t so boring its the same crap over and over id rather watch reruns of law and order
Do you guys know what an indefinite hiatus mean? The cast was released from their contracts, come on people..
lkay172
Bye ...
DOOL No way! Don’t kill off Days! We need it. 🛑 don’t kill off our show!
Oh no what will my mother do now that is her show!!😭😭😭
People actually watch this? Nothing better to do?
As if this country hasn't lost its mind enough and suffered, now we can't even rely on a 1 hour daytime escape.
That’s probably for the best, as they apparently no longer know how to come up with new ideas. Plus give me a break, How many people can they kill and bring back to life years later.
This is a sad day for me and I hope they reconsider. This is one of my favorite soaps.
boneyknowsbest 😢
No!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭
Grandmothers about to RIOT
This is horrible! I’m mad 😡 and sad 😔 at the same time! Why?
“Victor has a vasectomy but it didn’t take”
It's like how long can you really create a story line for like 40+ yrs DOOL goodbye
Oprah vibes ,fire one fire all.
Even Dr. Drake Ramoray ?!
Sucks to be them
It’s the end of an era
Whew. This makes me appreciate Young and the Restless so much more. I used to watch Days as well, but the death of Stefano really did tank this show. Too many newcomers and not enough original family drama to keep me interested. Killing Lexi was the final straw.
claudiacorgis
What in the Mfundi Vundla
Anytime I read 'Days of our Lives' I think of Bone Thugs N Harmony
Let’s all just calm down for a min.... read this from ChandlerMassey and take a breather Days DOOL
This makes me sick .....I have watched this my whole life....through crappy storylines and all. This is a tradition in my family. Great Grandma, Grandma, Mother, Me, both my kids too. I am not thrilled with the bizarre year lost that they are in right now but I still love it.
Remember when the trailer fell on bo and broke his nose, he was in blue jeans and a blue jacket if I remember correctly.
Bout time!! Sincerely, Barnabus Collins
The days of our lives has come to an end... glad to be off this sh!t rock
Watched nbcdays years ago it went downhill so not surprised
Wait, I'm more shocked Days is still on...😳
This used to be my soap. I tried watching again after countless years and I couldn’t get into it. Hey they had a great run, 54 years... WOW!
That ish still on
Wow
The Salem Scarf Strangler strikes again.
They should probably keep the cast and fire the writers.
I'm just glad Eric Brady did okay for himself. JensenAckles
😯
but what's gonna happen to Dr Ramoray?
People still watch? Every character on this show has died and come back at least once or has an evil twin.
Well this blows. Life long fan here. I grew up watching Days.
Like sands from an hour glass...
OH OH mass exodus?
Those are the days of their life.
Everything eventually comes to an end. It had a 55 year run and that's damn good, particularly since it's a soap.
DAYS is NOT Cancelled! They are going on a break Filming-wise...they just had a Time Jump and now is the time to tune in y’all !! It’s so crazy and soapy rn! nbcdays
I don’t watch but I may need to leave work and check on my SIL!
What a shame! I remember watching this show with my mom during the mid-late 90s.
No surprise since ratings have been in the toilet for years. I guess the soaps think they are being'hip' by introducing more and more gay characters, but the viewers just rejected it.
Cynthia83229425
carlivatiron is the show ending?
If Days goes, soap operas are endangered species
WHAT?!?!?!? This must be a joke! Please say it isn't true. So many good actors/stories. This breaks my heart. 💔
So did they 'squad' up and demand a raise or something?
The acting seemed to turn bad. They can’t act like the ones from the 80/90s.
Can’t believe it!!
Stunt
Woahhh....that's a sneaky power move is all, NBC. I used to watch DaysofourLives mostly when I was in school. My fav s/l was when Carly came in 2009. Loved that s/l w/Bo. My suggestion is hire Carly & Bo and start that s/l again.
Even Drake Ramoray? Friends Joey
Wtf!! No way 😱
LMAOOOOO IsntDaveOne WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT THIS LAST NIGHT 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I stopped watching gh already months ago after Billy Miller left show is boring I love days even though I hate this time jump? Sad if its cancelled!!
😢🤦🏼♀️ no way
Has anyone checked on ira?
I remember being off school for snow and watching this with my mom. Those were good days of our lives.
You guys are idiots. It's not ending. It's taking a break to get thr schedule lined up. 8 months in advance has been problematic and they want to fix that. Days has been renewed for several years.
Awwww, but with the demise of the soap opera, I'm surprised its lasted this long
Wow. Good luck 🍀👍🏽
Now eileen_davidson NEEEEEEEDS to come back to housewives! Andy
😮
The legacy
It's abt damn time
Man, used to watch this a lot. Seen an episode few months ago and it just wasn’t the same. It was all, just ugh. They ruined it.
marisastio Nobody watches that crap
deray Like sands through the hourglass, so is the cast of our show...
WesReynolds1 The sands finally fell all the way through and out of that hour glass...
Actually the writers should be canned too- any show is always only as good as the writers! 🤷🏽♂️
Nobody fires Deidre Friggin Hall!
deray End of an era.
theNFLchick Harsh
Dollny
Whats happening in the acting industry, when actors/tresses wants better benefits they cut them off. Even here in S.A we experienced such behavior from the pruduction company.
Its a wrap!.
They are still on?
Why?😞😐
This is sad and ridiculous nbcdays should stay on air along with all other soaps nbc
Replace the writers not the show.
We don’t need another talk show in its place
Guess that hour glass finally ran out on them
You can say these as just the Days of our Lives.
Who the hell watches that crap ?
Save the show , it’s better then General Hospital.
What the hell
My wife is gonna be pissed
nbc daysofourlives what are you doing ? When NBC tried to replace DOOL with Real Housewives crap... I ✌🏽 out, & I will do it again. No Days.. no DVR
So are they finally getting rid of this show?
It's a tragedy to see the enduring format of the traditional afternoon soap winding down. And surprisingly so considering it's DaysOfOurLives which still enjoys a ferocious fan base around the world.
What Does that mean it’s over?
More of an As The World Turns fan, myself.
Well I’m not watching days any more , that’s stupid totally stupid
Wow
“Days of our Times Past”
It’s tmz I don’t believe this
Cancelled Sucka foos.
what a slam in the face for all the hard working actors on the show. probably just want them to be paid way less. what a scam
They’ve been on air for a thousand years .. some of those cast mates are truly blessed !
RIP
Damn
People still watch soap operas?
Wow. Did they want raises
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🙄🙄🙄 oh my! That's DEFINITELY TMZ
To be fair the show has been going Down Hill for Years now. DAYS DOOL
