Hang onto your seats soap fans! Dr. Marlena Evans and the Brady and Horton families may be in trouble again – and this time, there may not be an escape!
An industry source has recently reported that NBC is considering canceling the long-running soap opera, Days of Our Lives. NBC has aired the soap for all of its incredible 40+ year run but does not actually own the series.
Word is that NBC feels that the licensing fee it pays to the production company is too high (based on the show’s ratings). If a lower fee can’t be negotiated, the series may end at the end. One source has said that the current contract runs until 2009 but there is a clause in it that would allow NBC to terminate the show as early as the Spring of 2007.
I’ll be on the lookout for new developments. Stay tuned . . .

i love days of our lives i hope it isnt taken of the air there is only one thing that makes me violently ill is whatching the two fags or queers or what ever you want to call them and i change the channel every time there getting it on and i probably would not watch the show any more if they continued to screw each other
This has ALWAYS been the ONLY daytime show I never miss. I’ve watched it from the beginning…..please keep it on……PLEASE~
ive watched days since 1985 and it is truly a good story, i hope it doesnt go off. I wish they would put the whole series on dvd. i defiatly would buy it . i would love to see it from the begining.
Days of Our Lives live in so many of us…when we faced difficulties in our lives throughout the years, all we had to do is watch Days of Our Lives…we’d see people in worse shape than us, or we’d get on the spot counseling for our actions that paralleled those teenage and young adult years. Please keep Days of Our Lives going! We have been faithful followers and friends of all the characters in this wonderful soap opera! You all have brought such a grace to the art of theatre!
I HAVE WATCHED THIS SHOW FOR SINCE I CAN REMEMBER- THEY ARE LIKE FAMILY TO ME- IF NBC CANCELS MY SHOW I WILL NEVER WATCH NBC TV AGAIN.
Please don’t take Days of Our Lives off the air. I been watching it from the 1970′s. I used to tape it but now I dvr it. I watch it everyday after work.
Days has been picked up by NBC to air atleast until September 2011. Another renewal will come in March 2011.
I READ IN A PICTORIAL NEWSPAPER THAT DAYS OF OUR LIVES IS BEING CANCELLED THIS FALL OF 2010!
IS THERE ANY TRUTH IN THIS REPORT?
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE.
